The difference is that all the names you mentioned are OK with paying a higher tax rate to help the deficit.
Maybe ordinary income is not where they make their money. They're OK with OTHER people paying a higher tax rate.
October 12, 2010 — In a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi released September 28, 47 House Democrats have urged that reduced capital gains and dividend tax rates for the wealthy, currently due to expire at the end of this year, be extended.
"I'm all for reducing the capital gains [tax] to the extent that the entrepreneurial spirit is there to invest and to hold the assets so that it doesn't contribute to the volatility of markets." - Nancy Pelosi
