Taxation without representation. Hail, King obama!

Congress has been proving for nearly a century taxation with representation ain't too great, either.

"I wonder if prayer rugs will be taxed as well ???

How about Bibles, rosaries, statues of Buddha, Hindu shrines and other paraphernalia? Maybe Holy Water will be taxed to? How about a tax on the Eucharist every time someone takes it? Maybe a special fee (tax) on Christians for praying? The US government (the Democrat Party) is the enemy of religious, economic and the personal liberty of the American People.

A Christmas tree tzar, and federal regulations on the size, species, method of harvest, employment of workers, plus a federal mandate to purchase an approved Christmas tree each year (with non-compliance subject to IRS fine) soon to follow.

Unfortunately, this is not a laughing matter.

My "ROFLOL" was at the side-by-side pics of the Grinch and Mrs. O. I should have copied the pics, but I didn't feel like it.

I was laughing at the pics he posted not the subject matter. I should have been more clear. Please, no more lectures people!

The CTPB will employ thousands of people.

Thousands? That $2M budget will cover 5 six-figure incomes and maybe a secretary/maid.
