Those of you complaining about Arnold should see what governor Rick Perry is doing in Texas -- pushing through a sure business-killer business tax, taxing gross revenue, not profit. Just remember, Arnold has been refusing to raise taxes. We are fortunate to have him.

Tax Plan has Clear Winners and Losers

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1628440/posts

Under the state's current business franchise tax, Aztec owed no state taxes. But under a new business tax that has been approved by the Texas Legislature, Aztec would have owed $81,000 in taxes because the tax is based on gross revenues, not net profit.

The new business tax has been pushed through the Legislature by Gov. Rick Perry as part of a plan to cut public school property taxes by more than $6 billion.

Seems to have no problem raising the debt.

We are fortunate to have him.

Sorry, that Kool-Aid is too bitter.

Your view of "fortunate" differs greatly from mine.

"Those of you complaining about Arnold should see what governor Rick Perry is doing in Texas..."

There you go again with that "least worse" approach of yours, i.e., "See, Arnold isn't so bad. Look at that awful Rick Perry in Texas--he's much worse..."

You just don't get it, do you?

Try real hard to grasp what many of us have been saying here for months. We're all through with your "least worse" line for pushing RINOs into office. I know this will be a very difficult notion to accept for the CAGOP/Dufus Sundheim, the New Majority and the Big Tent Party-Above-Principle GOP/RNC.

But all of you had better get used to it. It won't change.
