Let's Blame OBAMA!
Well, given that the Fiscal Cliff was entirely the creation of the Republican House of Representatives, suggesting Obama take the blame for it would be like suggesting you take the blame for the Newtown School Shooting. By the way, Terry... where WERE you on Friday, Dec. 14?
Government Should Be Funded By Sale of the Tears of Orphans to Drought Stricken Nations
In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the United
States relied primarily on taxes levied on products manufactured in
the United States (excise taxes) or imported into the country from
elsewhere (tariffs) for the bulk of federal revenues. Two notable
problems resulted from this heavy reliance on what are called

disrupted when trade fell. Second, both types of taxes were
typically passed on to consumers in the form of higher prices, and
this disproportionately impacted the poor. Both of these problems
with the consumption-based tax system led to consideration of an

If You Notice Our Racism, You Must Be a Racist
Nothing racist about that avatar. Nope. Not one thing. Saying the words "Herman Cain?" That's racist!
Wealth Distribution is FINE When it's From the Poor to the Rich!
I demand that I be allowed to pay a higher tax rate while millionaires continue their free ride! It's the AMERICAN WAY!
MAKE THE BLOOD CLOT TESTIFY BEFORE CONGRESS!
We don't believe in medical science! Drag her from the hospital like a criminal and clap her in irons! SOMETHING HAPPENED and we DEMAND the ANSWERS WE CAN BELIEVE!
