Since he was on the campaign trail, President Obama has proposed renewing the 2001 and 2003 Bush tax cuts for the lower- and middle-class, while allowing them to expire on schedule at the end of the year for the richest two percent of Americans. Republicans, however, have begun to obfuscate the issue by saying that the end of the year will bring history’s largest tax increase, deliberately leaving out that Democrats have proposed extending most of the cuts.
Rep. Mike Pence (R-IN) pulled this rhetorical trick last week, saying “Democrats are poised to allow the largest tax increase in American history to take effect,” and on Fox News Sunday today former half-term governor Sarah Palin went down the same road. Fox’s Chris Wallace rightly pointed out that “the Republicans keep talking about being deficit hawks. This is $678 billion you are not going to pay for.” Palin responded “no, this is going to result in the largest tax increase in U.S. history. Again, it’s idiotic.”
Wallace proceeded to let Palin spend the next minute reading from notes on paper that she had written down. He interrupted her just for a moment to ask if she had anything written down on her hand, to which she responded that she did:
PALIN: My palm isn’t large enough to have written all my notes down on what this tax increase, what it will result in.… Democrats are poised to cause the largest tax increase in U.S. history, it’s a tax increase of $3.8 trillion in the next ten years and it will have an effect on every single American who pays an income tax. Small businesses, especially, will be hit hardest. Small businesses account for roughly 70 percent of our job creation in this country. So raising taxes on these employers is the worst thing that can happen.
WALLACE: Can I ask you, what do you have written on your hand?
PALIN: $3.8 trillion in the next ten years, so I have didn’t say $3.7 trillion and get dinged by the liberals saying I didn’t know what I was talking about.
Watch it:
Despite the preparation of her “cheat sheet,” she still doesn’t know what she is talking about.
For one thing, according to the Pew Economic Policy Group, an extension of all of the Bush tax cuts will cost $3.1 trillion over ten years, once the costs of servicing the debt are factored in. But no one has proposed allowing them all expire, and it’s incredibly disingenuous of Republicans to claim otherwise, especially since it was a budget gimmick by former President George W. Bush to include the ten-year sunset at all.
Extending just the cuts for the wealthiest two percent of Americans will cost $830 billion over ten years. As Center for American Progress Associate Director for Tax Policy Michael Linden wrote, “to put that figure in perspective, $830 billion is enough to pay for all veterans’ hospitals, doctors, and the rest of the Veteran’s Affairs health system, plus the United States Coast Guard, plus the Food and Drug Administration, plus the operation and maintenance of every single national park for the entire 10-year period — with more than $100 billion left over.”
It was good that Wallace pointed out to Palin that Republicans are being hypocritical by complaining about deficits at the same time they’re calling for renewing huge tax breaks for the wealthy, but he then let her spew irresponsible claims that have no basis in reality.

August 1st, 2010 at 11:07 amThe most recent AP-GfK poll showed that 52 percent of those surveyed viewed Simple Sarah unfavorably while 45 percent viewed her favorably.
First if this is true then there are a sh*t load of completely ignorant people in this country. If this is the case then a quote from Wednesday Addams is totally appropriate:
Be afraid, be very afraid.
August 1st, 2010 at 11:15 amDespite the preparation of her “cheat sheet,” {Palin} still doesn’t know what she is talking about.
– - I was never one who believed that Barack Obama could – in a mere two years – repair the enormous damage of decades of unfunded entitlement and defense spending, two disastrously conceived, off-budget and negligently prosecuted wars, a financial market collapse, the worst recession since the 1930s, two burst bubbles in tech and housing, and the importation of torture into the American way of war. Maybe I over-estimated how much the GOP might learn from their appalling record in the new millennium – but that would require an admission of failure that they seem incapable of.
Nonetheless, the sheer difficulties and resistance that Obama has met with – from the FNC propaganda channel to the balls-free liberal press to the utopian activist left and deranged radical right – is remarkable.

August 1st, 2010 at 11:37 amThe real Republican agenda is not reduction of debt, it is about making American broke enough to get rid of social programs. This was the real reason for the wars and the rich people tax breaks.

August 1st, 2010 at 11:44 amListen to how Simple Sarah spoke in 2007 before Jon “Damn You!” McCain forced her upon us. She kinda sounds pleasant. Emphasis on kinda.
Just like “1984″ Republicans don’t want to govern or lead or help they want power for powers sake. Greenspan also said how the top earners are doing phenomenally well and are definitely not in a recession. The GOP wants the tax breaks for the wealthy to make sure that top 2% continues to amass more money while the rest of us struggle more because that is the only way they can stay in power.

August 1st, 2010 at 11:47 amI still don’t understand in what reality is it more fair that one class of people must pay a higher percentage of tax on income than another.
August 1st, 2010 at 11:48 amSir Stupid thinks that the rich should be able to keep and spend their money or hide it where ever they think is best. Unless of course the rich are children of Democrats then they should be forced to spend their money as Fox/Pravda thinks is best. But how a wedding insults our allies baffles me.

It’s a dirty shame that someone so unimportant, contemptible and trivial has become a big part of politics in this country. How does this happen?
– - I read this awhile back and sounds good to me:
The political parties are weaker than they once were. The elites cannot control grass-roots Internet-driven phenomena. Look at Obama. He seems a natural president now, but Washington dismissed his chances – as they are now dismissing Palin’s – right up to the Iowa caucuses. And because Palin is such a terrifying – truly terrifying – prospect for the US and the world, I think such complacency, rooted in cynicism about Palin’s mercenary nature, is far too reckless.
Look: what we have seen this past year is the collapse of the RNC as it once was and the emergence of a highly lucrative media-ideological-industrial complex. This complex has no interest in traditional journalistic vetting, skepticism, scrutiny of those in power, or asking the tough questions. It has no interest in governing a country. It has an interest in promoting personalities and ideologies and false images of a past America that both flatter and engage its audience. For most in this business, this is about money. Roger Ailes, who runs a news business, has been frank about what his fundamental criterion is for broadcasting: ratings not truth. Obviously all media has an eye on the bottom line – but in most news organizations, there is also an ethical editorial concern to get things right. I see no such inclination in Fox News or the hugely popular talkshow demagogues (Limbaugh, Levin, Beck et al.), which now effectively control the GOP. And when huge media organizations have no interest in any facts that cannot be deployed for a specific message, they are a political party in themselves.
Add Palin to the mix and you have a whole new machine in American politics – one with the capacity, as much as Obama’s, to upend the established order. Beltway types roll their eyes. But she’s not Obama, they say. She doesn’t know anything, polarizes too many people, has lied constantly and still may have dozens of skeletons in her unvetted closets.
To which the answer must be: where the fook have you been this past year?
It doesn’t matter whether she’s uneducated, unprincipled, unaware and unscrupulous. The more she’s proven incapable of the presidency, the more her supporters believe she is destined for it. It’s a brilliant little gig she’s devised. She may be ignorant, but she is not stupid. She has the smarts of all accomplished pathological liars and phonies. And this time, she will not even bother to go on any television outlets other than Fox News. She will be the first presidential nominee never to have had a press conference. She will give statements by Facebook. She will speak directly to the cocoon that is, at least, twenty percent of Americans. The press, already a rank failure in exposing her fraudulence, will be so starstruck by the chance to make money that we will never have a Couric-style interview again. it will be Oprah all the time. Because Palin lives in an imaginary world, the entire media world will be required to echo it or be shut out.
More to the point, creating a false narrative around a total phony and peddling her as a savior has no financial downside for the FNC/TalkRadio party. So this phenomenon will grow and grow. I mean: can you imagine Romney or Pawlenty inspiring this sort of fervor?
August 1st, 2010 at 11:50 amtoonces
Think about what is REAL, that is DISPOSABLE income. In what REALITY is it fair that some, that is the rich pay a MUCH LOWER percentage of their disposable income in taxes than the middle class and poor. Also consider that a majority of the money the rich pay in taxes they pay in capital gains which is paid at a LOWER rate than the taxes I pay on my labor. As Abraham Lincoln said labor is more important than capital and deserves much more consideration since capital would not EXIST without labor.
August 1st, 2010 at 11:52 amWhy would a person who has been successful and loves their country not wish to pay more to support that country? Who is that shallow and materialistic?

August 1st, 2010 at 12:24 pmYou can always trace it back to how the liberal treats (or treated, if dead) their own mother.
I gave my mother a home and a roof over her head when her boyfriend of 27 years suddenly died and she was unable to live on her own. So go fu(k yourself. Hard. And with something sharp.
And Sarah Palin is an idiot.

Ever wonder how little it takes for a liberal to trash the compassion and question the intelligence of a self-made Half-Term Governor who quit, to “raise” a special-needs child as her oldest son serves in Iraq?
Compassion? About raising that child, why would a women who is 8 months pregnant and knows the child has Down Syndrome travel 4000 miles just to give a speech she could have done by teleconference. Then after leaking fluids she tells no one and still gives the speech. After the speech does she go to a hospital in Texas that has an NICU? No she gets on a plane that has no medical facilities or personal on board to help her and tells no one she is pregnant and may be going in labor. Plane lands in Anchorage does she go to a hospital there with an NICU? No, she gets in a car for an one hour ride on dark, snowy roads to the hospital in Wasilla that does not have an NICU. Compassion my ass.
Really doesn’t sound like Simple Sarah got off to a good start raising her special-needs child.

“Sarah Palin feminism” is now widely regarded as the only real feminism to exist – a genuinely healthy and well-adjusted feminism that has replaced the angry man-hating feminism of the Left. A true feminist in the mold of the phenomenal Phyllis Schlafly. This reputation Sarah Palin quickly won in 2008 without even a battle (lib women could only ‘cat-call” from the sidelines, fearing engagement).

You are a liar and a moron. The Caribou bimbo may PREACH abstinance before marriage but she sure didnt PRACTICE it according to those she went to high school with. FAR FROM IT. Nor did she encourage her DAUGHTER to practice it allowing her boyfriend to sleep over with her quite often. You are so pathetic so brainwashed. You just care NOTHING about reality

August 1st, 2010 at 12:36 pmPoor thing. I don’t like to ridicule her because it gives the right a chance to be indignant and gives her a chance to be a martyr. If you pity her, what can they do with that?
But did you notice, in response to a question posed before this clip, that she said “condundrum”?
Not so funny as “refudiate,” but it made me think there are only two reasons people say things like pundint or refudiate or condundrum:
1. They don’t listen.
2. They don’t read.

Democrats are poised to cause the largest tax increase in U.S. history, it’s a tax increase of $3.8 trillion in the next ten years and it will have an effect on every single American who pays an income tax.
…what? This isent’ a tax- it’s ending the laspsing of taxes that were NOT PAID.
So what is the rule in America anyways? If a random person on the street corner soap box lies through thier teeth and can get sued for every cent they have, but if one is a celeberty they can lie on national tv and get more money for it?
Can a private citizen just be like, ‘ya, thats’ slander.’ And force her to prove her words in court?

August 1st, 2010 at 1:31 pmFollowing along with #122, Palin’s leaking fluids Planes Trains and Automobiles saga, it’s pretty obvious that she was trying to induce a miscarriage.
August 1st, 2010 at 1:48 pmThese people are not logical.
They want no tax increase on wealthy people but they want this :
1.More billions of dollars for defense,intelligence,and security.
2.More money for prisons.
3.More money for Home Land Security.
4.No money for inflation,or increase of cost of living.
5.More billions for Never ending wars in Afghanstan and Iraq.
6.Calling for bigger costly wars against Iran and Korea.
7.Build expensive defense ticket items like the F-35… ($350 millions a piece ).
Yet they do not want tax increae..
They want tax cuts.
But from where this tax cut is going to come?,
when the biggest spending is going toward defense,which they all love to increase.
She claims that the tax increase will have impact on every American, when in fact Chris was asking her about the upper 2%.
August 1st, 2010 at 2:19 pmProbably she was reading from something that Bill Kristol gave her before the cameras went on.
Did Failin’ Palin get “all mavericky” on the program?
August 1st, 2010 at 2:51 pmThis ditzy broad is almost as dumb as Dubya!She has notes and still can’t stumble upon a fact!

August 1st, 2010 at 3:36 pmDidn’t the Bush/Republican tax cuts of 2001 and 2003 cause the largest federal budget deficit increase in American history?
And I haven’t yet heard the magic words from President Obama in which he states that if Congress (and the Republican/Blue Dog Democrat caucus) send a bill to his desk extending these further-deficit-exploding tax cuts for the wealthy, he will veto it.
Simple, straightforward, “this is a line I will not allow to be crossed” statement. Maybe President Obama has told the wealthy-backing and wealthy-backed Republicans and Blue Dog Democrats this in private, you know, because President Obama doesn’t like to embarrass them…while we all know that they have no problem at all with trying to embarrass him.
So, the deceitful, back-stabbing, country-stabbing, budget-stabbing Republicans and Blue Dog Democrats roll-out their equally deceitful talking point that not extending the Bush/Republican tax cuts will be the largest tax increase in American history, leaving out that the unfunded Bush tax cuts have already added trillions of dollars to our nation’s budget deficit and extending these unfunded Bush tax cuts will add trillions more…as if they all had this planned. Why else would they lie? Why else would they advocate something that will be a disaster for America, which over the upcoming years will be the equivalent of 100 (maybe 1,000) 9/11 attacks on our country and our nation’s citizens?

Says bratboy (”August 1st, 2010 at 11:33 am”):
That reminds me: Australia’s new prime minister, who’s also the minister for edgergashun, usually knows what she’s talking about, and her opinions make much more sense than those uttered by the atavistic shadow PM, but you should hear her voice.
If Sarah Palin’s bleating is fingernails on chalkboard then Julia Gillard’s untrained delivery is a vuvuzela with the flu, designed to turn off a sizable minority of the people during Australia’s federal election on Saturday 21 August.
In comparison, the Bombe Alaska’s hokey tinkly tones are Muzak to the ears.
