All Perry said was that folks in a state like NH who dont have a sales tax wont like an additional tax, and that he would be happy to bump plans with Mr Cain.
The Lame Stream Media is scared to death of Herman Cain. It’s a shame that the the republican candidates are falling for this hatchet job on Cain. Disgusting.
Sheez, the things that bothers some people. BTW that is common when addressing a fellow believer in Christ...
Romney makes me sick. He doesn’t care about America. All he cares about is becoming the next POTUS. No thanks.
I agree with Bachmann: everyone ought to pay SOMETHING!
Are we getting a look-see at Cain/Gingrich 2012???
Perry now looks like johnny-come-lately, ooh ooh loook, I gotta plan too!
Newt is one of the few honorable men on that stage. He stuck up for Cain. That was a planned ambush from the get-go, and Newt saw it.
ditto.
romney makes me wanna puke.
OK. So the other (16th Amendment) constitutional problem we have would be how to keep income tax from resurrecting.
Cain better get off this 9-9-9 plan or that is all he will be talking about. I think Cain is doing reasonably well in trying to defend the indefensible. A President should be talking about cutting taxes and broader strategic aspects. Cain is stuck in the weeds defending the details of one specific plan that will go nowhere so it's really irrelevant. Big tactical mistake for Cain.
What planet do you live on?
I’m likin’ Newt. I think he could shred Obama in a debate.
I like Gingrich and stating the obvious that Cain has shifted the debate. His tax plan is not perfect, and I agree with that, but the debate is at least on the tax code which will allow refinement. I also think it is interesting all of them say they want to get rid of the tax code yet Cain is the only one with the plan to do so...
Yeah.
Ditto.
Is Romney suggesting that as President, he might eliminate all state-level sales taxes? I didn’t know a President could do that.
My reservation about the sales portion of the 9-9-9 plan is that it will cause a tax collection nightmare for retailers.
999 is a DOA stupid idea...raises taxes on middle class...easy to shoot at it, like fish in a barrel...
