God Bless Lisa Benson!
Telling the Truth by “cartoon”…..this is exactly in agreement with my view that this SPITEFUL “lame duck” congress,
Flaunting the loss of seats, this Majority Democrat Senate
(violating the Constitution on money bills must originate in the House) and a compliant House under Democrats Reid and Pelosi, has tried to set up a Rigged Theft and Ponzi Scheme that the GOP will not be able to retract.
IMO it is immoral, and ought to be prosecuted by TPTBe as Criminal…!!!
“has tried to set up a Rigged Theft and Ponzi Scheme that the GOP will not be able to retract.”
Nor try to. They will campaign on it most vigorously, though… incidentally proud of the projects funded among their constituents by earmarks they proposed, then opposed :) .
Each of the GOP Earmarks in the Omnibus bill are “individually defensible” as stated by Senator John Cornyn when he was on Fox News. Props to Bill Hemmer and also ABC for pointing out the hypocrisy of these Republicans.
the “deal” Obama agreed to, keeping 2001 and 2003 tax rates for 24 more months,
in no way takes any dollars away and ought not be listed as a “cost” to government.
the IRS will continue to receive the same tax revenues as were received since 2001.
Earners “own” their incomes, it is not “the gov’t’s money” which is the basis of claiming “cost” and “loss” for the Federal government! (unless this is actually a Soviet-style totalitarian government)
It is, IMO, a huge political and slanted LIE to claim the extension of current tax rates is “adding to the deficit and debt”…..because the government’s revenues should only be the lawful taxes collected each year.
Has our American individual’s ability to THINK been dumped along with American 1776 PRINCIPLES???
“It is, IMO, a huge political and slanted LIE to claim the extension of current tax rates is “adding to the deficit and debt”…”
Well, government cuts its revenue… so where do the money for expenses come from, China?
Oh, wait, they do. Well, no big deal - taxes are too high for us, let’s just put them in the deficit and leave them to our children. That will show the little tykes what personal responsibility is all about when they have to clean up our mess as well!

The Republicans keep THEIR earmarks in a lockbox that keeps their contributors paybacks safe and well, unsound, in the budget.
