...and give more of their money to the poor or better yet, the government?
this goes especially towards Hollywood liberals. Its no secret many of them live the extreme high life, which is almost and understatement.

Jayz and Beyonce, for example just spent $400k on a months vacation rental. Or people like Paris Hilton who we can't seem to avoid the pictures of her out on yachts blowing money as easy as breathing.

I say they're nothing but hypocrite. Just like some of them are the biggest preachers on global warming, yet they use more energy resources and pollute more than us 1000 times over.

Isn't one of the complaints about the leftist governments that they raise taxes?

So if these people are liberal, then they're voting in governments that will raise their taxes. In essence, they are giving more of their money to the government. That doesn't appear to coincide with the word 'Hypocrite'. They appear to be doing exactly what it is you're suggesting they do.

Yep. They should be putting their money where their mouths are and voluntarily pay huge taxes to the government. They don't. That's how we know they're completely insincere in their beliefs.

OK, give me believable statistics on your assertion.

Otherwise, I'll just chalk this up to another lame anti-lib thread.

Gee, doesn't it seem that rich + conservative is okeedokee, but rich + liberal, not so much. Can't have it both ways, folks.

Nothings stopping them from writing a check. Nothing is stopping them from downgrading their lifestyle. They're hypocrites who flaunt their wealth more so than people like Romney do.

In liberalsville, having that much money, so much that you hardly know what to do with it, is wrong and you should feel guilty. What exactly are you disputing anyways?

I see plenty of the liberal and Hollywood elite living better than kings yet they preach liberlism. Why are they not giving more away to live more down to earth and give more to those on need or to the government?

You're damn right. What, you laugh because you know asking them to live how they vote and preach isn't going to happen because they're hypocrites? I don't find it so funny

There aren't any believable statistics on liberals paying extra taxes to the government to demonstrate support of their "beliefs" ...because they don't do so.

They're hypocrites.
