“Dewhurst has had nothing to do and would never have anything to do with creation of a state income tax in Texas.”
***************************************************************
Say what? You can call it by other names and/or try to disguise it, but a tax on my earnings is a tax on my earnings.
If anyone (other than ngat) is delusional enough to be thinking of voting for Dewhurst in the primary, then google “dewhurst wage tax” and read a selection of what is returned.
Then vote for Ted Cruz.
That’s the best you’ve got?
Telling me to google a phrase that leads to the Cruz websites and quotes where Cruz falsly accuses Dewhurst of proposing a tax on your earnings?
You know, and Cruz knows, Dewhurst did no such thing.
In the AP story Cruz likes to quote, or rather repeat the misquote, Dewhurst was talking about reforming the state’s business tax, which is not based on income and requires businesses companies to pay taxes even when they are losing money. Nothing to do with any income or wage tax.
Even Austin’s Statesman says in its May 14 edition “Cruz has falsely implied that Dewhurst supported a personal income tax,”
You, sir, are running false ads on behalf of Cruz, and because conservative Texans recognize false attacks on their conservative Lt. Governor Dewhurst, Cruz will not cruise, Cruz will lose.
