Personally I believe that Every Congress Critter's withholding should be increased to 99.99999999%. I think that Pelosi's personal plane should be downsized.
When Peeloso is not using it Obummer can use it for his visits to foreign shores.

In the end, nothing hurt George HW Bush's chances for re-election than the rallying cry he made during his acceptance speech at is first nomination convention.
And I'm the one who will not raise taxes. My opponent now says he'll raise them as a last resort, or a third resort. But when a politician talks like that, you know that's one resort he'll be checking into. My opponent, my opponent won't rule out raising taxes. But I will. And the Congress will push me to raise taxes and I'll say no. And they'll push, and I'll say no, and they'll push again, and I'll say, to them, ‘Read my lips: no new taxes.’
When he eventually raised taxes, that rallying cry for his first term became the death knell for his second.
During his campaign for president, Barack Obama said over and over that he will not raise taxes for families making less than $250,000 a year.
'Under my plan," candidate Barack Obama said on Sept. 12, 2008, while campaigning in Dover, N.H., "no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes."
While he never told us to read his lips, he said it with the same power and veracity as Bush did with his no taxes pledge.
With the budget he sent to Congress yesterday President Obama breaks that pledge not just once, but many times. He does not break it by increasing the actual tax rates, but by eliminating tax breaks for those middle class families. In effect he is increasing taxes in a sneaky way.

Earth to Washingtopia. We Earthlings do not want your stinking plans. We want to slash and burn government. Eliminate 3/4 of all government agencies and employees. We want you to go back to where you came from and leave us alone.
The list, ping
