Quote of the Day
Tuesday, September 21st, 2010“In the liberal imagination, the money is the government’s by default, and the president and Congress determine through the tax code how much to give back to the people.”
Quote of day
Friday, July 23rd, 2010Today’s quote comes from democrat President John F. Kennedy in 1962:
“It is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high and tax revenues are too low and the soundest way to raise the revenues in the long run is to cut the rates now … Cutting taxes now is not to incur a budget deficit, but to achieve the more prosperous, expanding economy which can bring a budget surplus.”
True then and true now. So why does President Obama and the congressional democrats want to raise taxes during a recession?

VP Joe Biden visits a flyover state and gets a request from an American Citizen
Sunday, June 27th, 2010Small business owner in Wisconsin tells VP Joe Biden to “Lower our taxes.”
Biden ignores the peasant and his quaint ideas.
A spokesman for the GOP responded to the VP’s visit:
“Vice President Biden probably decided not to take questions today because he didn’t want to fess up as to why Wisconsin has lost over 73,000 jobs since the stimulus was enacted.”

I’m surprised that many Americans are paying attention
Thursday, April 15th, 2010According to a recent Gallup poll, 63% of Americans expect their taxes to go up over the next year. Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey points out that this poll doesn’t target likely voters or even just voters, it’s a poll of the general adult population. This not a good sign for the democrats. If everybody is expecting their taxes to go up, that means the percentage is probably higher amount likely voters.
I’m betting that more and more Americans are identifying with the two unifying themes of the Tea Party protests, less government spending and a smaller government.
The Hidden Cost of the Federal Tax Code
Tuesday, April 13th, 2010Obama White House is starting to push for a VAT tax
Wednesday, April 7th, 2010For those of you who don’t know what a VAT tax is, it’s a tax on everything paid by everyone.
Given the massive debts our Dear Leader and the democrat congress have run up since taking control of the government, and their plans to keep spending, they need a way to fleece even more money from the American people. The VAT tax they are talking up is certainly one way to do it, as long as you don’t care about the negative effects on the economy. Since actually working to improve the economy clearly isn’t anywhere on the agenda for the Obama administration or Congressional democrats, keep your eye out for a federal VAT tax.

Yet another democrat who doesn’t pay taxes
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010This time it is a big democrat party fundraiser who paid ZERO state and federal taxes on annual income of $108 million dollars.
This is not an isolated incident. Democrats don’t seem to mind raising taxes because they don’t plan on paying any taxes.

Obama “Budget”: $1.1 Trillion in new taxes
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010BOHICA America! Our Dear Leader is proposing $1.1 Trillion in new taxes. Kiss any idea of an economic recovery anytime soon goodbye!
Before you Fiscal Conservatives start complaining, remember that democrat House “leader” Nancy Pelosi needs your money so her family can fly on Air Force jets to avoid dealing with rabble like you.
Update: To go with that $1.1 Trillion in new taxes is $1.6 Trillion in new debt! Is this the Change you were Hoping for? Probably not.

At risk Democrats seeking to extend the GW Bush tax cuts
Saturday, January 23rd, 2010This bit of news must be like a capitalist stake through Obama’s socialist heart.
The so called “leadership” of congressional democrats and our Dear Leader would much rather see across the board tax hikes place on the American People by letting the G.W. Bush era tax cuts expire.
If Barack Hussein Obama is at all interested in keeping his promise of “no new taxes” for anyone making less than $250,000 a year, he has no choice but to call for an extension of the President George W. Bush tax cuts.

Translating ObamaSpeak Park 4
Monday, November 2nd, 2009The latest in a public service, translating the words of our Dear Leader and his cronies into standard English.
When a democrat uses the term “deficit neutral”, that translates into English as “your taxes are going to get raised through the roof!“
