CBS News Sunday Morning - Linda McGibney reaction to Ben Stein op-ed regarding tax on rich

This appeared on CBS News Sunday Morning today (9/26/10) and I had to share it. To me, Linda McGibney is a hero and I love her! Ben Stein... not so much!

Negative comments will be deleted. I'm sorry if that bothers you but most of the negative comments so far have been immature name calling by people who are apparently offended by someone who is simply speaking their mind. She's not telling you what to do or how to be, she is speaking for HERSELF. If you don't like Linda speaking her mind, why should I let you speak yours? There's no free speech right on this page, baby! I'm in control. You want to be a douche and call names and spout racist sexist and asinine things upload your own videos. L8TRZ!

For some, money is like seawater. The more you drink, the thirstier you become. Enough is never enough.

Don't listen to Stein....tell him to go out and bonk some gophers.

Why do people listen or pay-for-the-attention to Ben Stein??

Because Americans are MORONS!!!

Ben Stein is a whine baby. Whine, cry, whine, cry. Poor Ben Stein. It's easier to sit on your millions a whine like a Ben Stein. Maybe he can throw himself down on the floor and kick and scream, kick and scream, Poor Ben Stein.

Ben Stein is a greedy twat.

Wow, this is unbelievable especially for the self-centered Americans. Wish that more people (and from all countries) can be this clear-minded about helping their own country. And, after all, helping all the people means helping yourself!

If the others are doing fine, they'll have more money to spend on the services of the top businesses. Linda, that's the most sensible thing I ever heard about the state of economy, and about the state of the whole world!
