Obama Won’t Rule Out Middle Class Tax Hike
Remember the good old days (like last fall) when 95% of Americans were going to get a tax reduction while The One was going to provide free pizza and beer for everyone? It’s not clear whether the maidens who spin gold and the hens that lay golden eggs are on strike or what, but it now appears that Zero may have been slightly wrong about that. Here’s Good Buddy and #1 Assistant (that’s French for stooge) David Axelrod stating the opposite may be true.
Here’s the circus clown who doubles as Press Secretary trying to explain it away.
What do you mean I can’t just keep drinking beer and the mug will automatically refill itself? I thought Zero is the Messiah
If He’s the Messiah, where’s my free beer and pizza (and we’re talking good pizza, not Little Caesar’s, Domino’s or Pizza Hut)?

What!? We’re so jaded now that bread and fishes won’t do?
[2]
Damn
I thought The One wasn’t just going to teach me how to fish–he was going to give me a new fising rod.

However, a middle class tax hike would go well with –
“The tax oppression index is based on 18 representative criteria measuring fiscal attractiveness, public governance and financial privacy in the 30 member states of the OECD.
1. Italy
2. Turkey
3. Poland
4. Mexico
5. Germany
6. Netherlands
7. Belgium
8. Hungary
9. France
10. Greece
11. United Kingdon
12. United States”
In my mind we are headed for 15th or 16th very quickly. source

conservativetony, frankly I’m waiting for him to grill the fish up with a nice lemon sauce!
the laughter from the “Press Corps” when Gibbs try to sell this bullshit is priceless. Of course, the “PressCorps” will turn right around and sell the bullshit to their readers and listeners…minus the laughter!

Justrand, remeber during Clinton’s presidency Rush called Clinton’s spokesperson “Spear Taker”
Gibbs is doing nothing more than that at this point, and he’s not doing that very well. In fact, I think he’s damaged his career. Oh, sure he’ll be invited on CNN and MSNBC, but what does that pay?
[7]
BC,
Ought to throw this vid up in your lede too. link Some of the press are now starting to laugh at Gibbs over this. Its a good sign. Some of them might be getting a clue.

Rasmussen —> Obama’s Approval Index rating back down to -2. Stocks are off today, as is Consumer Confidence. CA is going into the dumpster.
But, what continues to shock me the most is Obama siding with Chavez and Castro in backing Honduras’s leftist President, Zelaya, after he refused to “meddle” in Iranian politics.
What is going on?
[9]
You bought it America. Now take it. Enjoy your Obama.
No sympathy from me.
Now we go down that long and irreversible path to utter enervation, stultification, paralysis, emasculation, and decay.
If Obama wins in 2012, I suggest joining the winning team, folks. Why fight for a team tha
[10]
that won’t fight with you?
Move to Saudi Arabia, marry up 4 wives, and settle down!
[11]
dr dog, was that a cartoon or a prophesy?
little of both, I guess
on the serious side of this, the average American is going to get VERY angry when they are starving, cold and unable to get from place to place with government assistance. When that same average American sees the elite drive by in their SUVs, munching a snack as they are driven into their well-heated mansions we are going to find out just how much of an aberation 1917 Russia was.
I pray the average American wakes up lonnnnnnnnnng before that!
[12]
aureliusx…can I just secede in place and keep the wife I have?
[13]
Folks -
WSe elected the class clown President and unlike high school, there is no adult supervision.
[14]
Justrand– I admire your loyalty.
As far as practicality of seceding in place, please see Ruby Ridge and Waco.
How about take your lovely wife to Saudi Arabia. She’ll enjoy having more helping hands around the house I am sure.

You bought it America. Now take it. Enjoy your Obama.
No sympathy from me.
That I can agree with!

H/T Hot Air comments:
[17]
JR, yeah the cartoon is a two headed coin.
Some news organizations are even quoting the findings in Spain that every ‘green shoots’ job costs 2.7 previous jobs plus $700k in subsidy.
[18]
Be better off in Iraq, at least there they permit Bibles. SA does not.

That news conference clip of Gibbs is one of those uncomfortable breaking-your-promises moments —> embarrassing.

Ras has Zero -2

Its not going to get any better for him.

Time for Mark Sanford to shut up. I do hope Jenny dumps him. She is obviously the brain behind the operation. Jenny for Governor!
[22]
Jenny must be pro-choice
[23]
Jenny must be pro-choice
The pro-birth crowd strikes again.
[24]
Sanford is obviously a flake. Thank you Maria from saving the GOP from another embarassment.
[25]
hahaha
Your atttempt to slander me by calling me “pro-birth” is uhhh, ummm, ahhhh laughable.
[26]
“Jenny must be pro-choice ”
Lighen up, Chek.
That line was
a)timely
b)apt
c)deserved
d)funny
e)correct
f)all of the above
[27]

Jenny must be pro-choice
Chek, I think CT’s point was – “Do I keep him, Do I keep him not, Do I keep him, Do I keep him not…..”. Sanford of course being the petals of a daisy.
[28]
Dr. Dog.
Boy, Sanford is really turning out to be a total flake. The GOP has no leaders. We are doomed.
[29]
If Jenny knew of the affair, then she is indeed ‘pro-choice’
[30]
Actually, I didn’t think Sanford was presidnetial material, nor do I think was he a leader.
[31]
Sanford being a moron doesn’t mean “We are doomed”
We ARE doomed, of course, it’s just that Sanford isn’t the harbinger of our DOOM! Obama leads the list of harbingers…Sanford isn’t in the top 100!
[32]
Chek,
No doubt.
Sadly that is the bad side of ‘Behind every good man, there is a good woman…’. Sometimes you find that all there was is the woman. Kinda reminds me of BO in a way. ‘Behind everything BO says, is a teleprompter….’
[33]
This from over at HotAir –
We can only hope that BCRA is struck down…
[34]
I wasn’t too thrilled with Jenny’s initial statement. However, I did greatly admired the fact that she DID NOT stand by him during the news conference. But with each time Sanford opened his mouth, my view of him deteriorated. He is an idiot.

There are no leaders in the GOP. Boehner did a great job on cap and trade but I can’t think of anyone else. Romney is a no go for me.

“There are no leaders in the GOP”

You just noticed this, maybe we should be thankful there are none at the moment least they fawn over barry and lead in the wrong direction.
