RE :”
During a discussion with CNN’s Piers Morgan about tax rates, Christie made it known that he's just about had it with Buffett, the world-famous investor who lent his name to a proposed tax hike on the rich.
“He should just write a check and shut up,” Christie said. “I'm tired of hearing about it. If he wants to give the government more money, he's got the ability to write a check — go ahead and write it.”
And make his tax return public. Still love Christie.
I still say House Republicans should hold hearings on this and call Buffett and other big mouths in and under oath ask them about any loopholes they take advantage of to get out of paying taxes, and to supply his tax return, so this 'problem' they flagged can be addressed correctly. Ask them why they don't write a check.
But no, congressional Republicans have no imagination. They are getting killed by this ‘tax the rich fairness’ campaign strategy of Obama’s and they appear too stupid to even fight back. Most just hide now. They are terrified to bring up deficits in interviews now. My prediction is that when Republicans finally get a nominee the MSM will have them cowing and backtracking on their current statements too.
Better pray for a natural disaster because the R team is a losing one.

In before the Christie haters show up on this thread to claim he's a "social liberal" (which they will continually lie about no matter how many times he goes to bat for conservatives for pro-life & defense of traditional marriage).
And then they'll tell us they have to join the union thugs in going after Christie because there's some super secret GOP establishment conspiracy to nominate Christie for President during the upcoming "brokered convention".
Do they realize how pathetic they look having to flat out lie about this guy's beliefs on social issues in order to make their "he's a Giuliani clone" smear work?
