That plan ain't on the table. Question: Would the White House agree to REAL CUTS at 10-1??

[pas]

Republicans should call them on this now and offer 10 to 1. See how quick the naritive changes to they are trying to decimate the poor/children/elderly.

[Mr. K]

I would tell the dems I absolutely agree to a 10:1 spending cut to tax increase— but you go first

Imagine, a “journOlist” from ABC telling us about who’s “out of touch”

[MileHi]

“That basically puts these candidates in a position of not even asking corporate jet owners to assume one-tenth of the burden that we’re asking college students to bear… that they would not even consider asking millionaires and billionaires to bear one-tenth of the burden that middle-class families would be asked to bear in a deficit reduction package.”

The rhetoric has become surreal.

"Spending" in the tax code, subsidies as "investments", "revenue" for tax increases.

[jdege]

Despite the bleats of the left and of the MSM, most folks understand that while we could increase taxes, the economy is in such a state that increasing taxes wouldn’t increase revenue.

What americans? Those already not paying taxes and wanting more from Uncle Sugar?

Question for the Idiots at ABC TV ? Just who won the last Elections ? And Why did Americans Elect & Send these New Politicians to Washington ? To Raise Taxes and Expand Obama’s Agenda ? Sorry ABC , but we are just Not that Stupid out here .

“That basically puts these candidates in a position of not even asking corporate jet owners... millionaires and billionaires...”

They badly need new material at the downgrade White House. That corporate jet thing is their own stimulus program!

Unfortunately NO ONE last night in the debate said this about "cuts to taxes" deals: THE-CUTS-NEVER-HAPPEN.

[SECURE AMERICA]

The White House is out of touch
I am an AMERICAN. I want no increase in taxes nor growth of Government.
MOST Americans I personally know agree with that.

[olezip]

Reacting to last night’s GOP presidential debate, the White House said today that the 2012 candidates proved themselves to be out of touch with Americans

Don't they wish! The Democrats are out of touch; they cannot put together a meaningful budget; the socialists just borrow and spend and print money.

Dems do not understand the positive connection between lower taxes and more taxpayers and more revenue.

Unless congress places themselves under the same laws they foist on you, they remain your Lord and Master, and you remain a SERF with an open wallet they can raid at will
