"From the outset of the Obama presidency, in fact, Republicans have engaged in a calculated, across-the-board campaign to protect the tax privileges of the wealthiest Americans." ~ Rolling Stone

It's possible that I'm just a sucker for a good political piece published in Rolling Stone (I'm old enough to remember when being on the cover of the Rolling Stone was everything it was cracked up to be -- maybe it makes the mag I loved back in the day seem legit, and thus lends legitimacy to my personal sex, drugs and rock and roll phase). It's more likely, though, that I love this grittily good piece of hard news and investigative journalism delivered with just the right edge of eff you flair because it's good.
