The New Republican Mantra: 'Reducing Revenue Doesn't Reduce Revenue!'

 
the federal budget is not affected by the bush tax cuts...
While the sun sets on the Bush Tax Cuts for the Rich at the end of this year, Sen. Tom Coburn and other Republicans have been making some rather creative assertions regarding this issue in an attempt to forestall the demise of the tax cuts. [ 1, 2, 3 ]

BERJAYA
Despite incontrovertible evidence that the Bush Tax Cuts for the Rich have had a detrimental effect on the federal budget, Republicans pay no heed to the facts, because...

BERJAYA
The GOP answers to a higher authority! [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ]

(If %40 of the national debt was incurred between 2001 and 2008, and more than half of that was Bush's Tax Cuts for the Rich, and the vast majority of Bush's Tax Cuts for the Rich went to billionaires, then that means about one fifth of the national debt was borrowed from our children and grandchildren to give to billionaires, right?)

This is usually the point in the discussion when a republican plays the 9-11 card. It has the power to trump all logic.

I love that they want to balance the deficit with cuts to programs other than defense, but Chimpy's tax cuts are not seen as part of it.

I don't know how they can do that without their heads melting or something.

Ah god if republicans and Tea Party wackjobs don't play the Nazi card it's something, I really wish the democrats and republicans would wise the hell up, and maybe present solutions, but then again it's america it's the easier to point the finger to blame than, to lift it to help.

Ten: For money those bastards will do anything. If Jonathan Swift were alive today, he would not write "A Modest Proposal" for fear that the republicans would see it as a measured response to an ongoing problem.

How do solve a problem like Mr Coburn

Coburn, Bunning, McConnell, and especially Kyl in shackles. These are a few of my favorite things

I thought simply being a Republican trumped all logic.

Give the Bush administration a break - they did pretty good for a group having their first try at ruining a country. It's usually take 25+ years to make that kind of a mess.

That's a brilliant pic of T-Co, Doc.
Next time tho, bust out that warp tool and put 60 lbs. on his hips and waist— he's a big ol' piggy.

I think "babon"'s target customers are somewhat more likely to believe in the tax cut fairy.
