So now they are back to calling this the Largest Tax Increase in History...

[WCGreen]

Yep, they are bringing out that hoary old bogeyman, the LARGEST TAX INCREASE IN HISTORY!!!

And guess what, the idiot American people will start repeating it and we will be one step closer to Banana Republic status and to be just another failed Empire only with not so much of the glory and a whole lot of the macho crap that goes along with international swinging dicks...

[polichick]

1. They may finally jump the shark with that talk - even low info voters know better. nt

[WCGreen]

2. They know it but still believe it...

That's the problem...

[nadinbrzezinski]

3. Individually perhaps, en masse

a box of rocks is more intelligent.

[gateley]

7. I don't think they do, polichick. They believe what they're told which

is why WE have to get our message/truth out there. I'm not sure how to do it, though, since so many of them only watch Fox and we know they're not going to tell them.

[Posteritatis]

13. Nah, they view taxes like crime and believe both are always on the rise. (nt)

[unpossibles]

17. no they really don't. go spend a day on congress.org or other FB sites

and you'll see plenty of people who totally believe it and other garbage FOX spews.

[abelenkpe]

18. No they do not

believe me, I've heard the same parroted "largest tax increase" come out of the mouths of liberals and the well educated in the past twenty four hours. The country has gone insane.

[emulatorloo]

26. I wish. Sadly this particular piece of BS works for them again and again.

A lot of the Crossroads and Chamber of Commerce Lie Ads used that nonsense or a variation of it. DEMS WANT TO RAISE YOUR TAXES!!!

[polichick]

27. Okay, okay - I hope I'm right and y'all are wrong...

:P

4. A parting gift from the worst President in history.

[texshelters]

11. You need to check your short term memory

if you think Obama is the worst President ever.

There are Doctors that can help you with that.

Peace,
Tex Shelters

[maxsolomon]

12. i think they meant *

[tridim]

16. Little jumpy there fella.

Obviously I meant Bush, the man who is responsible for his stupid tax cuts expiring this year.

The expiring cuts have NOTHING to do with Obama or Democrats.

[texshelters]

25. My bad then

You had a picture of Obama and then that statement. I just put 2 and two together and got 9.

Peace,
Tex Shelters

[w8liftinglady]

5. yes...that has been repeated multiple times here in Red Hell

John Cornyn is famous for it

[texshelters]

6. Taxes are Scary

Yea, we don't need money to pay for stuff and shit you commie!

Peace,

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. Indeed yes, and recommended.

[11 Bravo]

9. Then why the fuck did they vote for it? Hang it around their damned necks!

[coti]

14. Exactly! Put the lowest-98% cuts out there!

Let them vote against it and to let them expire.

[WCGreen]

19. As the talking head GOP on MSNBC said, that's ancient history...

they never look back, never waver, never really think...

[jmowreader]

22. For a very simple reason, dear grunt:

They truly believed in the Permanent Republican Majority. They got lots of positive press for Shrub's "largest tax cut in history," so their thinking was, in ten years when we make this just a TINY bit bigger, 'largest tax cut in history' stories will be in all the newspapers again.

Unfortunately, the Republican president they had left office with an approval rating so low even Shrub's base was turning against him, and a Democrat got into the White House.

[gratuitous]

10. And here they were telling me that freedom isn't free

But apparently it's available for low, low prices! Crazy Eddie, selling freedom at prices that are positively INSANE!!!

[KansDem]

15. Why not call it for what it is? The largest tax-cut expiration in history

F*ck the GOP and their capitalist running dogs!!!

[sally cat]

20. Who's they in this situation?

[WCGreen]

24. Republicans...

[unblock]

21. largest tax increase in history, signed into law by a republican

wasn't the largest tax increase in history prior to that reagan's?
wait, poppy famously broke his no new taxes pledge, didn't he?


damn, those republicans sure love their tax hikes, don't they!

[librechik]

23. you're starting to see how this works!

Now get 20 other people to see it, and so on and so on. Maybe in a generation we can do something about it.
