They are not conservative in any way.

ANY Republican that cozys with a registered Democrat should be tarred and feathered!
I’ve never actually paid for a song via the internet nor have I ever paid a single dollar for anything downloaded to my smart phone. They can’t tax me.
uTorrent is great for music, btw.
Any time I see words like “Fairness” in the name of a bill I think Atlas Shrugged and I know it is a bad idea and anti-free market.
Any new tax should be fought hard regardless of who or what is to be taxed. We need to eliminate taxes not find new things and ways to tax.
Taxes are the enemy of growth and prosperity.
I’m not worried about the taxes either. I’m worried about people like Mike Enzi continuing to serve in the senate.
RINOS fit their role like hand in mitt.
Bastards.
"...hey wanna buy a cat in a bag? My friends tell me they would leave me alone if I help raise taxes, screw the American citizen, and promote the decline in freedom and liberty, but most importantly....secure my next raise"
The Republicans are merely fronts for the Democrats.
They are not conservative in any way.
Everyone is going for more taxes, one way or the other. As governments within our republic come up short, they will find all sorts of creative ways to get more money out of the average citizen.
Chigago did it with toll fines, sending out notices to people after YEARS of violations, many looking at five figure fines. And Seattle now talking of adding a toll to the I-90 floating bridge to pay for the I-520 bridge work because so many people are simply avoiding the 520 bridge, which is now tolled.
And various other fines and fees - stricter parking and traffic enforcement and similar things. Tracking down people that buy from out of state but don’t pay in-state sales taxes. It will get a lot worse as the economy worsens.
I’m not worried about the taxes either. I’m worried about people like Mike Enzi continuing to serve in the senate.
I find it interesting to note the frequency with which the word “fairness” is used instead of the more descriptive “Screwing you again.”
The “Western initiative” has worked very well in neighboring Colorado. An apparently conservative candidate gets elected to office be seeming to embrace the “reforms” necessary to balance the budget, then forgets about control of spending. Raising new taxes seems to be the default setting, even if taxes have to be invented that never existed before.
It matters not about the nominal party affiliation. ALL such candidates get perverted the same way.
Republicans: selling out their brand promise for decades.
Did Mitt purpose the tax? Then grow up.
When someone starts getting rolled by Durbin they shouldn’t be left alone even to pee.
What is your point?
Mitt-theBACKSTABBER-Romney imposed BOTH gay marriage
and ObamaCARE/RomneyCARE.
Apparently, you like both.
Although I am opposed to taxes, I am also opposed to the advantage that the Internet has over brick and mortar companies. The price advantage as helped companies like Amazon. And with this money, many Internet billionaires like Jeff Bezos starts to promote Queer Marriage.
BTW, I use Pirates Bay to download my music and films.
The Republicans’ only principle is to have no principles.
