1. David Corn is 100% right..The most socialist Gov inthe US is Palin.
The oil companies are taxed, and the money is DISTRIBUTED to every citizen in the state..

2. I'm willing to have everyone pay the same amount of taxes
So long as each one of us gets the same pay.

I'll leave it there.

PS: Frau Bachmann is dead meat, and her own party is running away from the pestilent carcass.

3. Why does she keep saying - "this is not what America was founded on"
Edited on Wed Oct-22-08 06:57 PM by jhrobbins
I doubt she really knows what we were founded on and I know that the 'Founding Fathers' didn't agree on very many issues; so for her to say what America was founded on is specious. There are tons of things that are a part of our contemporary government that were nowhere near the original foundational ideas for America.


And she sounds like a dive singer too.

5. I'd be ecstatic if she lost her next election

Couldn't happen to a more whacked out fucking bitch, as far as I'm concerned. Damn holier than though wench.

And I'm holding back, believe me. :evilgrin:

P.S. - I am SOOO fucking tired of having politicians say "that's what the American people want to know", when talking about irrelevent shit. She ain't speaking for me.

9. All Matthews did was let Bachmann talk! And she did the rest herself
I watched that and couldn't believe she wouldn't just shut up or get off the topic.

The point about everybody paying the same tax rate. Sure, just as long as people are paid a viable living wage and that the rich fight in all the wars they want us to have too.

10. I'd like to see a flat tax just to shut up my conservative middle class friends.
I really think these people believe they'll keep their tax deductions on their mortgage interest and other things they've become accustomed to. They think their tax rate would stay the same at worst, but most will think it will go down. You know it will go up because if you take away the progressiveness of the current tax structure, somebody's going to compensate for the lower rate paid by the upper income people, and guess who that will be?

All it would take is one year of this and these people will scream bloody murder. And probably blame the Democrats for some dumb reason.

12. I hate that woman's ignorant argument she makes at the end: that we should all pay teh same rate....
.... That that's the only thing that's fair.

Some woman, who's choosing between rent and medicine should pay the same 10% of her income that the CEO of Exxon pays.

Ignorant and without compassion.

I take the heads off of people that say that to me.

Not Matthews though.

15. Bachmann = Katherine Harris with a slightly better plastic surgeon.
Just when you though it was safe to watch TV, the GOP finds another ball stealing nut.
