Obama's Nontax Tax
The Wall Street Journal ^ | 09-20-09 | The Wall Street Journal Editorial Staff

Posted on 09/20/2009 5:35:29 PM PDT by GOP_Lady

On a Sunday show, the President offers a revealing definition.

President Obama didn't make much news on his round of five Sunday talk shows yesterday, with one notable exception. The President revealed a great deal about his philosophy of government and how he defines a tax increase. It turns out the President thinks a health-care tax is not a tax if he thinks the tax is for your own good.

I guess it's sort of like the definition of the word "IS."

For a true liberal at heart, the truth is a living and breathing definition.

Mr. Obama: "George, the fact that you looked up Merriam's Dictionary, the definition of tax increase, indicates to me that you're stretching a little bit right now. . . ."

So, turning to the dictionary to determine the meaning of a word is now some sort of act of desperation?

Mind you, during the campaign, Obama said he would cut the budget by investing in schools, roads, bridges, health care, and green technology.

This man has no clue what any economic term really means.

He READS, smiles and appears amiable. The persons who write his words are inhuman. Of the Inhuman kind, too.

Now this POS is the determiner and ‘Trier of Fact” of what is good for individuals; only Dictators, Marxists, Fascists and the Demented believe such...since this POS is not a Dictator, does that make him a Fascist, Marxist or Demented, all of which are incompatible in America.

In other words, like parents talking to their children, this levy—don't call it a tax—is for your own good.

Daddy Bama cares.

I like how he is avoiding giving medical care to illegals; just make them all citizens. Coming in January to a town hall near you.
