President Inept..I mean..Elect... :)

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009...llion-tax-cut/

Proposes 300B tax cut to business/persons to gain Rep support....


Hmmm..


700B WallStreet bailout..........check.
14B to Auto Industry..............check.
6B bailout to GMAC................check.
Untold B's to AIG and friends...check.
New ramp up in Afghanistan....check.

Sounds about time for a tax cut....because we're just rolling in responsible spending.

Maybe if we operated congress similar to jury duty, asinine stuff like this wouldn't pass

He ought to know that the government needs money to operate, too. Personally, I can think of some really good ways to increase taxes.

I couldn't decipher from that article as to what exactly he was proposing to cut, but I do know this one fact:

the more a politician, any politician, talks about helping business, the more that I know that they know nothing about business.

they are clowns when it comes to what business needs. if they'd just stay the heck out of the way, we'd mostly be better off.

Didn't we have a surplus in 2000?
Too bad Cheney's buddies pissed it all away on caviar and expensive hookers.
