Interesting choice of words by McCain, the closet racist.

I can't stand these people.

3. WOW John the multi-millionaire is terrified of having to pay a nickel more in tax.

Easy there, John, people will start to think you're a very greedy man who says fuck you to the 98% non-millionaire Americans.

4. Well, John, you can't have it both ways, either he'll lower taxes
for most people--which you deny he will do--or he'll redistribute wealth downward instead of upward. But he cannot do both, so choose your line of attack.

5. Wasn't that Nixon's idea?
Negative income tax is what they called it back then, right?

7. Dog-whistle to the white crowds who adore him: "welfare."
Code for: "Unless you elect me, all your tax dollars will go to supporting lazy blacks who don't want to work."

Desperate times call for desperate measures.
