Hey Obey, you got a problem with your guy’s policy take it out on him not me. He’s your president not mine.

[Kimberly GG]

Many of our Congresscritters, including Pelosi, are just as wealthy ;)

[deadrock]

Let us end the charade. The gov. will confiscate your entire pay check, and then will assign payout based one's need.

'You conservatives don't need that much.....'

[napscoordinator]

Anything to get money to the troops. They need it and if all Americans have to give than that is fine, but just the rich? No!!! Make every person give one percent AND DEFINITELY INCLUDE all those people getting their 300 dollar a month welfare checks.

[ßuddaßudd]

Lets tax the people who dont work and collect local and federal subsidies.... ▲

War Bonds?

War Bonds?

[April Lexington]

They should just tax liberals. Its Obama’s war now...

[USNA74]

Why is it that the first thought from a Democrat is a tax? Why no option of cutting spending? No, don’t answer that - I already know.

[ex-snook]

Commercialize the war. Sell sponsorships for the different units. Hell we could have the Nike symbol on uniforms. GE sponsoring bombs. Or we just put it on the tab for future generations.

[RJS1950]

I heard his worthless comment about only military families sacrificing for the war. Any tax imposed will also be paid by military families as well so he just wants another burden put on military families.

[ClearCase_guy]

My interpretation of this is that in these tough economic times, Obama is trying to make the war more unpopular by associating it with an additional tax. You warmongers! You want to kill people so much, you better be prepared to pay for the pleasure!!

Meanwhile, the far more expensive Health Care bill will cost us trillions, but is being touted as a way to save money.

[libs_kma]

This would go against Obammy's "word" not to tax those making less than 250K, 200K, 175K, 150K or whatever his scaled back number is right now.

Lets put aside for the moment that he's already broken that word....he did it with cigarettes and that affects many people who make less than any of those numbers, but the thing that will make this so sweet is that this is a tax that will make the lefty's SCREAM

I'll never tell a dim when they're about to step in it. I'll let them do it every time.

The job of the government is to pay for conflicts. Perhaps they could quit taxing and spending on UnConstitutional social programs and stick to the business they were intended to do.

[Sunshine Sister]

This “war tax” should hammer some politicians too!

[VeniVidiVici]

If Democrat Charlie Rangel would just PAY his taxes we could fund the war for at least another year.

[A.A. Cunningham]

Lawmakers

[Typical_Whitey]

Charlie Rangle proposing a new tax... LOL... That is just too damn funny.....

[CanaGuy]

Do you think the tax will disappear after they pull out of Afghanistan? Nah.

Here's an example: Originally he public didn't want casino gambling in Canada's province of Nova Scotia. The government convinced everyone that it was going to bring in millions of tax revenue and would be good for the province. When the casinos came in, did the taxes go down? Nah.

[rawhide]

Democrats are to be exempt from this.
