Senator Barack (Vote for me, I’m Black) Obama (D Illinois) has announced another brilliant plank in his campaign platform: He wants to raise taxes. Yes, I know, this is hardly new coming from a democrat candidate, but, Obama’s plan is different.<\/p>\n
He isn’t claiming he’ll only raise taxes on those nefarious “Rich” people, oh no, Barry boy wants to raise EVERYONE’s taxes. How? “I think the best way to approach this is to adjust the cap on the payroll tax so that people like myself are paying a little bit more and people who are in need are protected,”<\/strong> the Illinois senator said.<\/p>\n That’s right, he wants to raise your taxes, and take it off the top. “And he has said, and I think a lot of us who have been fortunate are willing to pay a little bit more to make sure that a senior citizen who is struggling to deal with rising property taxes or rising heating bills, that they’ve got the coverage that they need,”<\/strong> Obama said, speaking of Billionaire Warren Buffett. Ain’t that great? A billionaire and a senator who want to reach deeper into your pocket…<\/p>\n These seniors who supposedly struggle with rising property taxes… Did they think they weren’t going to get old? Is the rest of the population responsible when some don’t plan for their own futures? Personal responsibility and freedom go hand in hand.<\/p>\n This reminds me of the old, faxed around joke: “Lack of prior planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.” Breitbart\/AP Story<\/a><\/p>\n Jonn added:<\/strong> Gaius at Blue Crab Boulevard<\/a> reports that the Left isn’t too happy about Obama’s latest pronouncement, either. Michele Malkin<\/a> and Stop the ACLU<\/a> troll the depths of HuffPo-ers’ outrage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
