Revenue Facts Blow Up the Obama-Biden Tax Cut Lie

Just in case you haven't figures it out yet, Liberals are impervious to facts and reality. You PAY for tax cuts, not for tax increases. People who already pay 70% of federal income taxes aren't paying their "fair share" while the 47% who pay no taxes are. Obscene government spending is not the problem, undertaxation is. The housing crash is to be blamed only on banks who gave out sub-prime loans, not government regulatory mandates that they do so with guarantees of those loans, nor all of those millions of people who irresponsibly took out loans for for houses they could not afford. It's perfectly logical to have the position that you don't even have plan, but you just know you don't ike the other guy's plan.

And some of that 47% who are not paying their fair share, are actually receiving a handout from Uncle in the form of the head of the household feature in the tax code. I know of one couple with several children who paid less than a thousand dollar in tax, because of deductions, But the received a tax return in excess of 9 thousand dollars. Another with just one child, using the same head of household who received over 6 thousand dollars. When you talk about our surplus. remember these outlandish something for nothing give-a-ways. And anyone receiving welfare or food stamps should have a handicap or a needy family. And the Government's handicap qualifications should be radically changed. An illiterate person shouldn't qualify on that alone

I know of a couple tha got $600 per month in food stamps because they lied on their application...they said they were supporting more kids than they were. They were not supporting any kids, although they had 5 (and expecting one) between them, the kids were all living with other people. Don't these people in these offices ever check for facts?

Check for facts? It's a quota system. My performance evaluation is based on how many people I enroll.

Whenever Republicans – or anyone else – propose a tax cut, Democrats run to the nearest microphone in horror crying about all the revenue it will "cost" the federal government.  Panicked Pols will foretell of massive firings of teachers and policeman, children will starve because school lunches will disappear, and condoms and birth control pills will vanish from Planned Parenthood stock rooms.

Such is the case in these waning days of the 2012 presidential campaign as Barack Obama and Joe Biden rail against the Romney-Ryan plan to lower the tax burden on Americans.  It's not just that Mitt and Paul believe...
