The silent response from Republicans is deafening. My brother says Buffett is a moron for giving his money away. My brother is a Republican who has never done anything but suck money out of our family. He spends money like a drunken sailor and every time he gets himself in financial trouble he runs to mommy or grandma to bail him out, then never repays the 'loan'. He is such a typical Republican that it would be funny if it weren't so sad. His identical twin's daughter is living with me right now and that twin hasn't offered me a single dime, or even a thank you for supporting his adult child. She hasn't said thank you, or even one time said, "Hey, thanks for letting me stay with you guys, what can I do to help out around here?" My mother thinks my brothers are awesome because they are Republicans, while the child that actually works and pays his own way through life is a dirty Democrat. Frustrating does not even begin to cover it.
