President Says Recent Tax Hike “Not Nearly Enough”
http://www.angelfire.com/ak2/intelligencerreport/rightwing226.html ^

While admitting to being pleased and proud of the tax increases he was able to force Republicans to accept, President Obama lamented that “it is but a small positive step in the right direction.”

The President argued that “it should be self evident that the rich still fall far short of paying their fair share. There are many private citizens who live more lavishly than the President of their country. The inequity of this is stark and, quite frankly, shameful. Not even the wealthiest owner of the biggest business has as big a burden as the President of America has. The idea that such a person should have more than

Mr. President, if this tax hike is not enough, what would be better? What do you want?

Middle class tax money is all there is left to go after.

This HAS to be satire. Not even that idiot Obama is stupid enough to go on record with such self-righteous, moronic ranting.

It’s hard to read about the insanity from the left. My eyes glaze over & my head wants to explode from the combination of resistance & outrage. I want to get away from it as much as I want to confront it.

To be fair, though, *is* this really satire? I know it’s intended to be, but doesn’t 0bama say in one of his books (probably Dreams From My Father- I didn’t read those, either) that taxes should be something like 95% & the government “provides everything that people need” (as if they should be the ones to decide what people need)?
We know enough to realize that nothing he (or the democrats) would want to impose on us seems far-fetched. He is that antithetical to the American way of life.
Democracy is tyranny. That is no joke.

I agree, the recent election showed there were not enough sane voters in this country either, so what is Barry’s solution to that one...decrease the voter base or increase the knowledge of how bad things are financially in this country due to his policies.

“it should be self evident that the rich still fall far short of paying their fair share”

This guy is like a broken record with this, it never ends.

“The rich must pay their fair share...The rich must pay their fair share...The rich must pay their fair share...The rich must pay their fair share...The rich must pay their fair share...”

They are already paying most of the taxes, so what is his definition of fair? Pay ALL the taxes? Pay 100%? Go ahead being that most of his fundraising fans are Hollywood millionaires. Let Sarah Jessica Horseface, George Clooney, Jay-Z, Beyonce, and all the rest of these idiots who held fundraisers for him work for ZERO. We can even set up direct deposit into the US Treasury. Clooney can make a movie for $20 million and just have all that money directly deposited into the treasury. No need to deal with it or even think about it. Just make movies and live in a homeless shelter.
