Reprise--Taxes, Taxes, Taxes, Taxes........>>>>>>>>

This is a reprise from earlier this month.

With all the crap going on about the SCHIP, Hillary's "baby bonds", socialized health care, etc., perhaps a review is in order.

People these days are so entrenched in their BDS they don't realize GWB did have a balanced budget--so well balanced in fact, he was able to cut taxes and give the citizens of the country back some of their hard-earned disposable income.

Money the people could use as they wished, not as the government demanded.

Then a few things happened. 9/11 and Katrina. Big budget items.

The war, of course, is ongoing, and I've said it many times--the war is fiscally expensive, yes. It has been the least expensive war, bloodwise, that we've ever fought because of the technology used in saving our soldiers lives.

I'll also say this: Each and every soldier's death is a tragedy. However. Each and every soldier that gave their life, that paid the ultimate price for our freedoms, knew when they enlisted they might have to pay that price. And they still volunteered. Each and every soldier who paid that price is a hero. Every last one. Each and every soldier who has been permanently maimed in the line of duty ALSO knew when they enlisted what the price might possibly be for their enlistment and they still chose to enlist. Every last one of those soldiers is also a hero, make no mistake.

But, I don't get bent out of shape about it and I don't use it to tug emotionalism out of this war. Logical people as a whole don't because these brave men and women knew the stakes and still volunteered.

What I do get bent out of shape about is the 4,000+ ABORTIONS carried out DAILY on our home shores. Often paid for with MY TAX DOLLARS through Planned Parenthood. But, of course, the murderers on the left gloss over that. Children who had no choice, unlike our troops, but were slaughtered because they were inconvenient.

And Katrina? How about all the misappropriated funds by the Louisiana government that were supposed to be used in the clean-ups and getting things going again? Not GWB's fault, but the left would have you believe that not only did he engineer the hurricane, he engineered the looting, raping, "wilding" and misappropriation of funds as well.

And yet--even in the midst of the war costs and the Katrina debacle, he didn't raise the taxes again. He let us continue to keep our disposable income to use as WE saw fit.

As stated in a previous post today, the Republicans obviously got the hint during the 2006 elections that the country was tired of their fiscal irresponsibility and have decided to clean up their act in spending. The Democrats, however, have decided to go completely over the edge in tax and spend. And they use the "heart-string emotional tug" to do it.

SCHIP is a good one. Yes, there are many underprivileged children in this country--AND THEY ARE PROVIDED FOR UNDER SCHIP. What the Dems want is to increase SCHIP by somewhere around $35 BILLION to include children who are already covered under private healthcare and come from well-off families. NOT WHAT SCHIP WAS DESIGNED FOR MORONS.

And how about all the hidden taxes we pay? Like the Folsom Street Fair? That was outlined in a previous post as well. It's taxes that pay for the police and security. It's taxes from the hotel tax in California that pay for that travesty.

How about Ahmajerkjihadist's visit to Columbia? Yep--you got it. Taxes again that pay for the security, the set up, the lighting, the venue, all of it. And the UN? Again--our taxes pay for the police, the security of all those that hate America and come to our shores to spew their bullshit.

Of course that doesn't cover the Hillary baby bond. She wants to give every newborn $5,000. Again, previously addressed. Somewhere around $20 to $30 BILLION dollars yearly (of course covering illegals). RESPONSIBLE peoplewon't "bite" for that crap, knowing it takes way more than $5,000 to raise a child. HOWEVER, the leeches will start popping out baby after baby the rest of us will have to pay for, thereby perpetuating welfare and entitlement even more.

How about those retirement packages and raises for this fiscally irresponsible congress? What they want to vote for THEMSELVES will cost the average taxpayer another $4,400 EACH YEAR in taxes. What have they done to earn that kind of retirement and raise? What? NOTHING. If you or I performed our jobs the way this congress has performed its job, we'd be fired.

But it's all GWB's fault, huh? GWB isn't trying to run a socialistic nanny state. GWB gave us back our money to do with as WE pleased. By doing so, he injected money into the economy and brought us out of the mess Clinton put us into. Just like Reagan brought us out of Carter's mess. Funny, the Democrats just keep sinking further and further in failed policies and economic disaster and it's always a Republican that brings back economic prosperity. And the Democrats will do it again.

The general public is too wrapped up in BDS and the left's lies to see that and see it clearly. Apparently, they LIKE funding all the little projects--at their expense of course--of the Democrats like homosexual fairs, hosting tyrants, and hosting the worst excuse for a political body in the world, while funding the wholesale slaughter of innocent children every day. They ENJOY funding people who are too damned lazy to get off their porch steps when they've been warned well in advance a killer hurricane is coming and then want the government to rescue them--the ones too damned lazy to take care of themselves and the ones who want to whine when, gee willikers, the hurricane they've been warned about hits and they lose it all! So gee willikers, it's all Bush's fault so let's rob, loot, assault, rape and destroy to get back at the bastard, yeah. And then let's blame everything else on Bush because we're too stupid to be accountable for our own actions.

The general public obviously LIKES funding all the illegals coming over the borders so emergency rooms and hospitals are closing and states are going bankrupt funding them.

The general public LIKES the inefficient way the government runs things so let's let the government run our health care the way they run the post office, the IRS, the treasury department, the CIA, and all the other government agencies.

Because of the lies the Democrats revel in, the general public just can't wait to throw their money at the Democrats to raise taxes on literally everything, have the Democrats institute their communist manifesto and have the Democrats become the ultimate in the nanny state.

And these morons say the right is Orwellian? God they need an education. God help us if one of these Democratic liars becomes CIC.

Tax his shirt,
Tax his work,
Tax his dirt.

Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think.

Tax his cigars,
Tax his beers,
If he cries, then
Tax his tears.

Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways
To tax his a$$ !

Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won't be done
Till he has no dough.

When he screams and hollers,
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till
He's good and sore.

Then tax his coffin ,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in
Which he's laid.

Put these words
Upon his tomb,
" Taxes drove me to my doom..."

When he's gone,
Do not relax,
Its time to apply
The inheritance tax!

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, and our nation was the most prosperous in the world.
We had absolutely no national debt, had the largest middle class in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.

What the hell happened? Can you spell "politicians??!"

And I still have to "press 1" for English. I hope this goes around THE USA at least 100 times!!
