>>>Polls indicate that a majority of Americans would not mind paying more in taxes if the money was used to improve our public schools and provide universal healthcare for its citizens.
Remember what happened to Dubya's daddy? "Read my lips: no new taxes" was his slogan in 1988. In 1990, he admitted defeat and raised taxes. He lied, caused a big recession, and lost in 1992, even though he looked unbeatable after Desert Storm.
Why do we have to buy into the "no new taxes" mantra/lie? If we are up front and HONEST with the public, we'll win.<<<
Lets parse (filet?) this DUdimwit's thought process for all to see.
Para#1...OK, standard Democratic party line. Failing to acknowledge that "W" has stolen both these issues from the Demo's - and is making hay on them, somewhat to my dislike...but I digress.
Para#2...wonderful kicker here..."...he (GWB) admitted defeat and raised taxes.He lied (ie:raised taxes), caused a big recession, and lost in 1992."
The idiot/savant DUposter just blew his own logic to pieces...he admits that tax increases caused the 1989/91 recession.
Para#3...the Demos want new taxes...the rollback of "W's" cuts, which all the Demo candidates, in particular Dean are calling for, is, yep you got it...NEW TAX!...ie: they want recession.
"W", you idiot DU'ers has done the opposite - just like John F. Kennedy. Lowered taxes and given a tremendous boost to the economy. Read your history idiots!!!
Oh they did read their history, you can count on it. They're just hoping the Generallydumb Public did not, which of course are the only ones the dems doublespeak/newspeak bravo sierra would work on. Unfortunately, that's about half the country.
Very very sad.....
