Jesus H. Christ....
Articles in the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Times today about The Chosen One's phony promise to deliver a tax cut to 95% of Americans. Thinking voters thought that something may be a bit weird when you consider the fact that over 40% of Americans don't pay income taxes. If you weren't educated in a government school you might wonder "Well, that's all good Senator Obama, but how do you give a tax cut to someone who does not pay taxes?" Good question; and Barack the Magnificent has an answer for you. It's simple, really. You just change the definition of "tax cut." On Planet Reality a tax cut is when the amount of taxes you have to pay is reduced. On Planet Obama, which pretty much occupies the same orbit as Uranus, a tax cut is when you don't owe any taxes so the government writes you a check. After considerable thought I think that I prefer the old definition. What Obama the Incredible is proposing is nothing less than a massive welfare program. Let me know if you're surprised.
