What kind of fools are we Republicans anyway?
With talk like this, he is no better than Obama.

Thataboy Mitt. Concede the narrative on this issue to Obama by buying in to his “Tax the Rich” mentality. You’ll just do it slower.

Eliminating deductions is part of what’s necessary to move towards a flat tax. Interesting proposal.

Yeah, but at least he’s white and he has a R in his title. /s

Get a load of this RINO crap...! So, you'd rather not get a 20% income tax break and eliminate deductions that curry favor to specific segments of the population?

For the “hold my nose and commit suicide” crowd. Those voting Romney might as well vote Obama. Though this is WORSE. Just open the door and invite the vampire in.
To: Paradox
Good point, I wont knee jerk, have to look at this more closely.The guy's talking about 20% tax cuts across all income brackets. Eliminating major deductions also means an effective end to the Alternative Minimum Tax, since AMT is contingent upon deductions that are denied.

Well Gollly!
Well, I think you hit a reset button for the fall campaign.
Everything changes. It's almost like an Etch a Sketch.
You can kind of shake it up and we start all over again.

At least you’ve come to the obvious conclusion. Many here are still all about rallying around the inevitable nominee. It seems to not matter hes Barry in a different package.

state property tax deduction?!?!?
wth!
ROMNEY wants to eliminated my deduction for the property taxes I pay?
F! that!
I will vote for Obama before I vote for this ___wipe!
To: IamConservative
C’mon, you’re not that dumb to fall for this are you? This is just Obamney’s “Read My Lips” moment. He has no intention of cutting any taxes or federal spending. He will increase both. It’s what he does.

Why are the candidates not talking about cutting the size of government, limiting entitlements, and lowering taxes? The ink is not yet dry on my 'fair share' and if my 'fair share' goes up any more I'm going to go broke. Why will the RNC not at least try to establish a different narrative?

Article:
President Barack Obama recently criticized Republicans on the point, saying they hadn't specified which programs they would pare back.
We know Obama's added $1T in spending and wants to add trillions more. That's enough to want some other guy in office. That's on top of his rolling illegal alien amnesty and his systematic alienation of our allies abroad. Anybody but Obama...

And let's NOT forget, it is the BLUE states, Cal NY, NJ, CT, MA, that have the HIGHEST income tax rates in the country..if you can't deduct state and local taxes off your federal return..that's a BIG hurt...A millionaire living in NYC, may have a combined state and local tax rate approaching 15%...
Some years ago, I think under Clinton, there was a proposal floated to eliminate the deductabilty of state and local taxes. Chuckie Schumer went ballistic over it. The diea was withdrawn..

What kind of fools are we Republicans anyway? Remember the difference between Republican and conservative. Conservatives aren't fooled by Mutt Romney.
