What the h*ll?! One moment he acts like a conservative; the next moment he's kissing Obama's boots.

I’m still withholding my opinion until “Chubs” McCain weighs in on the issue.

A broken clock and all that.......

[Old Teufel Hunden]

I don’t really understand why you put in parenthesis that he’s trying to act like a conservative. I opened this up intending to read that he’s screwing us, not attempting to help the consumer. Very misleading.

Must be up for reelection in 2010.

What business is it of the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT if a state government wants to raise state taxes on state residents? If the state residents don’t like it, they can vote their state representatives out of office.

If the state needs money, they will raise some taxes somewhere — why should the feds dictate which taxes can’t be raised?

The average tax rate for goods and services is 7.07 percent, but federal, state and local taxes comprise 15.9 percent of the typical wireless bill.

If the feds want to do something, they should drop THEIR absurd taxes on phone and wireless services, not tell the states what to do.

[rabscuttle385]

The Mobile Wireless Tax Fairness Act of 2009 would put in place a moratorium on federal, state and local tax increases on wireless services and infrastructure.

Oh great.

Just another example of the Feds stepping on states' rights. But hey, they (Democrats *AND* RINOs) trampled all over Sanford yesterday, so why stop now?

I thought most of my cell phone bill was already various taxes.

pretending to be a conservative

Haven't you noticed? That's the Republican way with a Dem in the WH. The faux-cons came out of nowhere, right on schedule. It's 1992 all over again.

He’s doing the right thing here, but frankly he would impress me a hell of a lot more if he was out there speaking out about the crap Obama is pulling... that is what has me angry at him, at ALL our senators!
