Let’s interrupt the local leftyblogosphere’s giddy tittering <\/a>over Rachel “Kirk Cameron” Maddow’s referring to the Tea Party protests as “teabagging”. If they weren’t a bunch of giggly arrested adolescents in the first place, they’d be conservatives, and the Sorosphere is largely so devoid of wit that this is <\/em>what passes for clever in those quarters.<\/p>\n

No, let’s look past the juvenilia and into the beef of the tax-mania that Maddow so dumbly short-changes for her gullible (and tiny) audience.\u00a0 Jamie Delton breaks it down well:<\/p>\n

Does she realize during the campaign the $250K figure originally claimed was gradually modified by Obama and Biden to $133K?<\/p>\n

Is she confusing this “tax cut” with Obama’s deception of quadrupling the deficit and then saying he is cutting the (quadrupled) deficit in half? Does she not realize tax payers will be forced to pay the needless debt being incurred now by the democrats in the budget and stimulus bills through the ultimate tax authority of the federal government and the Federal Reserve’s inflated printed money, which is the same as a tax? When does a Democrat stop cheerleading taxes and begin to turn their attention to responsible government?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What?\u00a0 Ask Rachel Maddow questions?<\/p>\n

Well, goodness knows the Sorosphere won’t.\u00a0 On Marty Owings’ internet talk show a few weeks back, I took a dig at some of Maddow’s assertions.\u00a0 One of the liberal panelists’ responses – well, it boiled down to “how dare you question her.\u00a0 She was a Rhodes scholar!”<\/p>\n

Cecil Rhodes should demand his money back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
