They Want ZERO Taxes?

Let’s see. Zero taxes likely takes away that sidewalk you are so comfortably sitting on while protesting:

What Higher Taxes? Part Deux

On April 15, 2009 By

The White House answers the teabag lunacy in a cool, calm, collected manner:

Pressed repeatedly to respond to the Tea Party demonstrations taking place right outside the White House gates, spokesman Robert Gibbs largely stuck to the numbers. The president, he stressed, had just recently passed a “tax cut that covers the most people in the history of this country.”

“The president promised significant tax relief for working families of this country, and in the first month of the administration delivered that to the American people,” Gibbs said.

Reporters were unrelenting in the questioning, seeking more and more comment [...]

My taxes have gone down. Big ass refund coming too (double last year). My take home pay has also increased since February.

Obama Tax Day Genius

On April 15, 2009 By

In just under an hour President Obama is going to completely diffuse this tax day teabagging nonsense. How, you say? Easy:

WASHINGTON ? On the day of the deadline for Americans to file their tax returns, President Barack Obama will talk about restoring fairness to the tax code and providing tax relief to working families.

Then he’ll be off to Mexico and the Carribean. Business as usual. Ignoring the insanity and giving the wingnuts enough rope to hang themselves.

So at the end of the day we’ll have cool, calm, collected Obama tell us about restoring actual fairness [...]

Hazmat suits. Unmarked envelopes. Strange substances. Oh my!

It’s…

It’s……

TEABAG TERROR!!!!!!!!

[Screams]

Apparently the conservative teabagging is causing quite the scare in mailrooms across the country. I guess organizers did not correctly inform teabaggers how to teabag without causing security concerns. It’s now a national security issue. Hazmat crews have been called in. Additional security will be necessary.

You know me. I do love irony. Imagine the shock and dismay among the teabagging faithful when they realize their little shenanigans is costing lots of money in hazmat response and additional security. Money that – guess [...]

LOL. True hilarity. Pelosi and the Democrats in Congress are going to put a bill together that will tax by as much as 90% the bonuses that TARP company executives received. Retro-active back to January.

So Republicans and rightwing bloggers will come out with a groundswell of support of a 90% tax increase!

Right?

Talk about a rock and a hard place. Let’s see where the loyalty lies and how much intellectual honesty is out there on the right. Should be fun!

So Daschle Falls on Sword…

On February 3, 2009 By

The news:

Tom Daschle withdrew his nomination on Tuesday to be President Barack Obama’s Health and Human Services secretary, faced with problems over back taxes and potential conflicts of interest.

Me pondering:

Why can’t we just run an online campaign to pay Tom’s back taxes? That’s what they did with Joe the Non-Plumber when he got exposed.

Politics is such a stupid game.

So the big buzz after last night’s debate appears to be

MSNBC just referred to this guy as “an undecided voter”. Let’s dispense with that claptrap straight away. Joe came into his discussion with Obama a McCain voter. He came in to the debate as a McCain voter. He’s a McCain voter. It’s not hard if you are observant. This guy will be exposed.

Exhibit A

Watch this video:

At :25 Joe says “McCain came across with some solid points and I was real happy about that…”

What undecided voter says that? This guy was looking for McCain [...]

It’d be really hard not to be impressed with this. You never know how this guy will vote, but you can almost see his posture change toward Obama. His ability to articulate our side is what makes me most proud to support him:

Can You Afford the McCain Tax?

On October 4, 2008 By

I’ve been saying for a while to friends that this tax thing totally benefits Obama with the most voters. The McCain camp is just yelling the same talking points without the policy backing it up. The reality of the situation is that McCain’s cuts benefit the wealthy few while Obama’s TAX CUTS benefit the majority of the middle class. I’d not shy away from the standard GOP line one bit. Go at it hard and don’t stop until you reach Go.
