Thread Name: BS: Right wing rhetoric in the US
Subject: BS: Right wing rhetoric in the US
I have noticed in recent months, that whenever the Republican economic agenda is condemned for being overly beneficial to the wealthiest Americans at the expense of middle class and working poor Americans, that the Republican response is to use a retort that centers around the term "class warfare" as a means of demonizing anyone who opposes the Republican agenda for wealthy Americans, the Ken Lays, and tax evading corporations.

Anyone else flinch when they hear this term used in this context?
