Perhaps this revenue that Kyl mentioned is being raised by closing unproductive tax loopholes, not increasing tax rates.

A rose by any other name..........Tax is a tax, is a tax.

If the tax loopholes are frivolous and contribute nothing towards economic growth, like tax breaks for corporate jets or wealthy horse racers, why not do away with them? Sacrafices need to be made to get the debt under control.

Increasing user fees for services that are already subject to fees to the levels where a private business would have priced them is not a “tax increase” - it would represent one of the few fiscally responsible things this sorry, silly government has done.

Also, if you think that we’re going to get comprehensive medicare reform as a predicate to raising the debt ceiling, you’ll be waiting a long, long time.

The problem with the lesser of two evils is that the lessers get less and the evils get more evil.

“If there is a user fee of some kind and we want to raise that to keep up with the times, that’s revenue.”

“User fee” is another name for “tax”!

This country is being taxed to DEATH, very literally.

We need a relaxation of regulation, and lessened taxes, so American ingenuity may thrive again!

2012 will mark a turning point, one way or the other...

Does our Republican leadership buy their white flags from France? We told them to fight, to hold fast, not to wimp out. This isn't negotiating, this is surrender!

If true, they should not garner the vote of any Conservative in 2012.

End them.

Vote 3rd Party or don't vote.

If you ‘get the debt under control’, all you really do is allow them to borrow and spend more later.

Mark Levin just said that Kyl’s office said Reuters office has it wrong and he is releasing a statement correcting the matter.

Over what period, 10 years? I hate how they use so many different time frames.

All is pure Barbra Streisand since this congress cannot actually specify what the next congress can or cannot do regarding spending. If the next gang of thieves wants to quadruple the debt they will regardless of what this gang of morons wants or says.
