McConnell's plan is a GOP Cop Out

For like the millionth time:

Section 8 - Powers of Congress

The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

Amendment 16 - Status of Income Tax Clarified. Ratified 2/3/1913. Note History

The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
 
It was Republicans that GREW government over the last 10 years. Only they grew it after they cut revenue.

Fucking nuts.

They cut taxes, not revenue....

Where is it you think the revenue comes from?
If you're still bleeding jobs overseas or shutting down businesses costing even more jobs, over 5 million so far since 08, tax-increases will only cause more job losses.

Fewer taxpayers means less revenue. Do the math.

So, the Republicans cannot handle the tea party whack jobs in Congress, so the best they can do it kick the can down the road to Obama and hope everyone blames him for increasing the debt ceiling. If it hadn't been for the dogmatic tea party children in the House, a real deal had been done. A 4 Trillion dollar plan was on the table, and the GOP walked away from it, basically because they cannot handle the tea baggers.

But it is going to backfire. Do you think the US voter wants the nation to be held hostage by a bunch of tea bagger children? Everyone can see that the Republican party is on the way out. They are now being held hostage and will soon only be a notation in History Books.

Not putting out a budget for two years is a cop out, fucking clown. Also, the dems don't want a short term agreement because no matter how much they lie and demonize, they DO NOT want this debate during election season.

You ARE kidding, right? Obama and the Democrats have offered $4T in cuts, which goes against most of the left leaning liberals in America. Yet, Obama has done this in an attempt to compromise and work with Republicans and "conservatives". If we default on our loans due to a lack of cooperation from Boehner and Cantor, this is EXACTLY the debate Obama wants during election season.

No, you're kidding your partisan hack self. They have not done a budget in two years, have spent like drunken sailors, now suddenly they have an epiphany and want to cut four trillion dollars? :lol: Also, if August 2nd is indeed D-Day, why has Obama rejected the idea of a short term solution to avert "default" to give time for a long term deal to be worked out? I'll tell you why, because the Obama and the democrats DO NOT want to have this debate six months from now.......

You're correct, it is a cop out, but likewise the Democrats haven't show themselves to take this problem with any seriousness whatsoever and let's not forget that they are the ones who didn't write a budget their last two years of controlling Congress.

When you only blame the other side and don't hold your own accountable for the same mistakes it only makes you part of the problem, Jim. You have no right to criticize the tea party crowd.
 
It was on executive bonuses, not a tax on businesses, liar......

But that takes money from the job creators and then it can't trickle down!:cuckoo:

So NOW you morons are condemning such legislation? Make up your minds for christ sakes.......:lol:

No, we're laughing at the ignorant trolls who think Cantor is taking a principled stand on taxes....700 days after taking a principled stand to set the top rate at FDR-esque levels.
 
McConnell's plan is a cynical attempt to blame everything on President Obama. The Conservatives want total power..and they want all opposition out of government. They look as people that don't believe in their crap..as a dreaded enemy.

It's as simple as that.

good gawd. we damn sure wouldn't WANT anything blamed on the BOYKING..:lol:
