THE LARGEST TAX HIKE IN AMERICAN HISTORY
This brought to you buy a joint effort of "Duhhh!!!" magazine and "I told you so" magazine.
This was not hard to figure out.
When Dem's are not in power they can say "no we won't, we are not like that"
Now they are in power and we get EVERYTHING we said we would get and were lied to by liberals that it wouldn't happen:
1. Tax increases
2. Timeline for failure in Iraq
3. Investigations and witch hunts
I TOLD YOU SO...

Where's that hack, Jay? Tell him it is dinnertime. Time to eat his words again.
Things are a bit more quite here...either they have given up or their feelings have been hurt...
With such obvious lying by dems about who they are, I don't know how they could respond...
Game,
Just like they demand we respond to any GOP in trouble. They are really hypocritical about such things.
Now, the next question is why they aren't purging their party of the corrupt like Chuck Chvala, William Jefferson, the McGees, ...
It would be more interesting if you start posting hypocrisy from both sides. Otherwise, it would be the same thing repeated again and again and again....nothing new to comment on!
Well, one man's opinion...
We all knew this was coming, too. Why?
Because we knew that when the Bush Administration gave hundreds of billions of dollars in tax breaks mostly to the wealthy with expiration dates of these so-called "tax relief" measures and that drove an annual surplus into staggering deficits and near doubling of the national debt, that when the Democrats tried to do something about balancing the budget, the Republics would blame the Democrats for the end of tax breaks that REPUBLICS themselves set to expire.
It's a great trick, but we get it and most Americans will understand that this "biggest tax increase in history" is just phony Republic bullshit.
In simpler terms:
You enact tax breaks, huge ones that you realize will eventually bankrupt the country. But you make it look not so bad by setting them to expire in 5 years. When they expire, you point your fingers at the fiscally responsible party and claim they're raising taxes.
Smoke and mirrors.
Typical Socialist Democrat BS from Jim.
Keynesian economics caused the Carter Malaise and the Misery Index.
What Jim is mad about is that the Democrats got caught taxing and spending like addicts with someone else's money.
Jim hates the producers of this country. He wants to punish them with taxation so that they are failures just like he is.
That is flat out spin...
The problem is that liberals and Dems think we have to do everything for everyone.
Our Democrat gov. is thinking about using tax money to bail out people who don't pay their mortgage payments...
And stop the class warfare Jim..."tax cuts for the rich" is the only bullshit I have read on this page
Jim-- why can't we balance the budget by reforming Medicaid, or streamlining social security?
But they ARE raising taxes. Bush came in, and like Reagan and Kennedy before him, lowered the tax rates and our economy has blossomed as a result. Democrats like to believe that they are beneficial to the rich at the expense of the poor because the amount of money the rich save is so great. They don't consider, or rather, they hide the fact that the rich are paying a greater sum of money even if their tax rate percentage is lower than the poor guys'. Now when the poor are actually paying taxes, they too will benefit from tax cuts. Actually, they benefit now because the economy booms after tax cuts and more jobs are available.
Of course all this has been explained before ad nauseum (Jay has gone into GREAT detail in past posts) and Jim, like most on the left, likes to pretend that it is tax cuts, rather than Congressional spending, that is detrimental.
As to the deficit---are you referring to trade deficits? If that's the case, trade is good. Deficits, as commonly moaned about, don't take into account foreign investment in American companies. For example, we may spend more on Chinese products, but the Chinese invests in American companies. Their purchases in stocks don't show up in trade deficit discussion. And why would anyone want to inhibit American consumerism, even if Americans want to buy foreign stuff?
As to the debt, this is always brought up without mention of how much our economy has expanded, which is has quite nicely thank you, so that alone, the debt seems so high, yet as a percentage of our total GDP, it is rather low, or at least, pretty damn good. And that's one big-assed sentence I've typed.
In any case, the Dems have promised to roll back Bush's tax cuts, because they are too stupid to understand basic economics. So whether it's the war on terror, or the war on immorality, or the economy, the Dems have just begun to really fuck us good, and I want to thank all the idiot Americans who are too fuckin' lazy to pay attention for the damage about to befall our country. I just thank God every day that they haven't yet attained the presidency, and I also pray that recalcitrant Republicans will get their heads out of their asses and make sure that doesn't happen.
If that all sounds a bit too over the top, it's because I drank a lot of beer tonight while bowling, had the best series of my bullshit season at a 655, which should have been much higher raking in mucho dollars and I don't give a rat's ass. I'm pissed, damnit, and you'll have to deal!
Jason, read the facts at the SSA website. The only reason that the government isn't apparently further in debt is that it borrows from Social Security. Social Security is not, I repeat, is NOT a burden on the budget. It is self funding and will continue to be for another 34 years. Even then, worst case it will pay 75% of planned benefits without impacting the general fund by 1 dollar.
I have no problem with tweaks to income caps and/or increasing the retirement age.
We've discussed SS as well Jim and by your stats, it's failing.
It's failing? And the moon is made of green cheese. You're deluding yourself. My stats are backed up by the SSA in their worst case actuarials.
By the way, did you read the funding bill? Did you know that there is no mention whatsoever of taxes in that bill? How could the Democrats be raising taxes if there is no mention of taxes in this bill?
Oh, they aren't passing extensions of the Bush tax cuts? Really! And who made these tax cuts expire in 2010? The Republic House, the Republic Senate, and the Republic president.
Who passed the largest tax increase in history?
The Republics, of course. Prove me wrong.
