GMA/NewsBusters ping to Today show list.

I have more respect for them if they called for a commensurate cut in spending, especially on bridges to nowhere, creepy "art", and useless studies.

Go to NewsBusters link for nice screen capture of Kate Snow literally flashing a twenty in a young man's face.

[sauropod]

This is demagogeury (sp) of the worst sort.

Kinda reminds me of Serpenthead and the Paula Jones comment.

[mathluv]

Oops! Wrong Snow. I thought Tony was making a comment.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Just $20? That's not enought to get my Lexus muffler from the last tax cut fixed. < /S>

[ishabibble]

You should pair the picture of Snow flashing the twenty with the one of the Today reporter in the rowboat, with the two guys walking behind her. The breathtaking gall of the morning programs has lost all constraint.

Does Newsbuster have a Greatest Moments list? My top choice would be Perky denouncing the capture of Saddam Hussein.
Priceless.

the tax cuts "would cost the federal government $70 billion."

To the average American, $70 Billion sounds like a big amount. However, the FED GDP for 2005 is $12,227 Billion.

That's billion . . . with a 't' ;-)

[mware]

LOL, when I first saw the title I was expecting to see something like this.

[hellinahandcart]

Shouldn't you be driving to the dentist by now?

/ nag :D

[hellinahandcart]

oops, I meant to put that in a freepmail. :D

[Racer1]

I'd rather they kept the tax cuts and paid down the deficit. Since I'm not getting anything anyhow. Well $10 to $20, almost nothing.

In our local liberal socialist rag, the headline read, "Tax Cuts Advance Despite Concern." Who is concerned? I know, the liberal, socialist, share-the-wealth democrats. Bleah!

Gotta love these share-the-wealth types. They want the "rich" to share. They define the "rich," not only as Bill Gates or the CEO of Exxon-Mobil, but you and me -- anyone who works for a living. We are supposed to share our hard earned dollars with the slackers and lazy buttz who sit around watching tv all day, making babies and collecting a welfare check. But do you think for a minute that George Soros, or any of the liberal socialists in government, will be sharing THEIR wealth? Not likely.

Do you have a link?

[longtermmemmory]

happy to know why I never every go to the lower end of the dial.

GMA is ratings dead.

[LRS]

Snow to another person: "Could you do anything with this?"

Too bad they didn't pull out a couple of dime bags...

[patriot_wes]

My 20 dollar bill says "persons" were plants!

"Gotta love these share-the-wealth types."

They are not about sharing the wealth, there is no tax on wealth. Instead, they are about sharing income. Better stated they are about sharing EARNINGS. I never hear them mention anything about sharing the burden.
