Class war is not just inevitable but justifiable writes Rick Bookstaber, who serves on the Obama administraiton’s Financial Stability Oversight Council.
I wonder if he thinks those Occupy Wall Street protesters breaking out the glass of banks is “justifiable.”
Rick Bookstaber, who currently serves on the Financial Stability Oversight Council, the federal body established under the Dodd-Frank Act to “ensure the stability of our nation’s financial system,” took issue with conservative commentator Tucker Carlson’s accusations that liberals were engaging in “class warfare” by seeking to blame the nation’s fiscal problems on a small number of wealthy individuals.
“There is little that matches the artfulness of the rich in waving off criticism of the widening income gap as ‘class warfare,’” Bookstaber wrote. “And there is little that matches the gullibility of the rest in following along.”
“I am not picking sides in this war,” he added, “but I believe such a war is justifiable, and indeed ultimately inevitable.”

Class warfare is Un-American & defending it by quoting Karl Marx says volumes about where this lunatic administration is coming from. They need to be STOPPED, here & now!
Absolutely! The talk show guys should really talk about this statement! We can stop them if we get active this summer working / donating etc. to good conservative candidates running for Congress. Then we can shoot for an earthshaking FAIR election day in Nov where we fight back in great numbers. If we can convince our sensible friends that this "class warfare" and other big government waste and nonsense is dangerous / unAmerican and convince them they MUST vote in NOV; then we could save our nation from going any further down this dangerous Obama socialist road. If millions of us committed to 1/2 hour a week or 1 hr a month to doing something significant to help one or more conservative candidates -something big and GOOD will happen to our nation. It must start with you and me. One hour each 14 or 28 days is small. It is not much but it could be the fire that joins other fires of liberty already burning. Then a revival fire could emerge that turns our country back to its Christian/freedom for all/ Constitutional roots. It starts with you and me!!!
Your right the commies have been in FDR cabinet and when McCarthy brought mthis to the public he was crucified by the democrats and years later we find out how true that crippled creep FDR had commies in his cabinet.
All these un-American, lawless, treasonist people like the occupiers, Bill Ayres, Bernadine Doren, Francis Fox Piven, Bill Maher, Anita Dunn, Richard Trumpka, Hoffa Jr., The entire Obama administration, the senate and house, and the list goes on, should all be rounded up and isolated from the rest of the people. Because if they are not, they will continue to spew their hate and keep us from healing this country and from bringing us back to the greatness we once were.
impeach, arrest, prosecute
I agree
Joe McCarthy was right!
Yes he was. Unfortunately for him the media already had control over enough of the public that congress threw him under the bus for career cash. Same will happen again unless there is a substantial fertilizing of the liberty tree.
Exactly. Joe Wilson, the Congressman who yelled “You Lie” at Obama during his speech promoting “ObamaCare”, was also right. Unfortunately for him also, the mainstream-media had control over enough of the public that Congress threw him under the bus for career cash also.
Come out and visit me in Arizona mr. bookstaber, you have an ass kickin coming, you pig
I found the article confusing. I could not determine just what Bookstaber was quoting.
We need a re-birth of the 50s Mc Carthy era and kick the Communist loving politicians out of our White House. KInd of tough to do when our president is a sympathizer. Hard to say what he really stands for or who he really is when all of this personal history including his real birth certificate is sealed and protected from our electorate view. The main media concurs with this.
Hanoi ( Jane Fonda) is becoming a moderate as time goes by compared to what is happening with Obama, Hillary and others in the White House. Hillary is puttng the fate our our country in the hands of the UN. Obama is also leading a campaing to put our trade and economy in the hands of the UN. Hillary has signed the US into the Small Arms Treaty so that they will have control of our guns and rights. If this is not treason then the word treason is meaningless. Wake up America before you will be clicking your heels.
This says it all about Obama and his administration.
Bookstaber is correct and sooner or later we all will have to join the fight. Of course all good Conservative Americans will be on the other side from Obama, Bookstaber and their Marxist buddies. But, like it or not we are headed for a conflict in this nation and it will not be pretty.
There is going to be war in the streets and it could happen right after the election if MItt Romney is elected. If Mitt is elected then Obama knows his power is gone and he will not accept this change. This is not the Hope and Change that he envisioned for America. He saw America with a total Socialist Communist government with him in the Cat Bird Seat. Obama will attempt to steal the election again just like he stole the 2008 election from McCain, there will be a million crooked voting areas and then Obama with ACORN will file fraud charges in every place where a Conservative won the count. The court actions will be controlled by his new Federal Election Division under Eric Holder. Watch it Happen……
Backstabber is just one of the cronies. Is ANYONE surprised? The awful, awful truth is, the American people in general have absolutely NO IDEA what Marxism is. The leftwing backlash against Joe McCarthy PERMANENTLY damaged this country's ability to educate the public about the real evils and insidious nature of Marxist/Leninism. We've all but been taken completely over. I hold the REPUBLICAN PARTY responsible, too, because they, knowing full well what Communism is, and how badly we've been infested with them, has done virtually NOTHING to elbow their way to the front of the mob, and EDUCATE (on prime-time TV) the public about this problem.
