  3. 10:08
    10:1 tax cuts means raise tax rates now, and never get the 10x cuts promised. It is a bad deal!
    Oh, and by the way. Raising tax rates doen't mean increased revenues to the Government. In fact raising rates will reduce revenues in this economy.

  5. That's priceless. So now the most inept President most of us have seen in our lifetimes is criticizing the GOP field? At this point it doesn't matter who runs on the Republican side. I would vote for him or her or even Snoopy before I would for Obama. Sorry, Snoopy!
