Fun stuff, I caught this and had to share it.

Normally Hayes invites some wimpy RINO on like Steele who can’t defend a single Republican position but this time he made the mistake of inviting Stephen Moore on and Moore was ready for him.

What people legally do with their own money is nobody else’s business.

It’s like deja vu all over again! -Yogi

“Anyone may arrange his affairs so that his taxes shall be as low as
possible; he is not bound to choose that pattern which best pays the
treasury. There is not even a patriotic duty to increase one’s taxes.
Over and over again the Courts have said that there is nothing sinister
in so arranging affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible. Everyone
does it, rich and poor alike and all do right, for nobody owes any
public duty to pay more than the law demands.”

If only Romney would stop using his “Mr. Rogers” style campaign speeches and use the style of Stephen Moore.

Buffet just announced a 2 billion dollar giveaway to charity.

If the federal government is so great, why didn’t he give the money to the government?

Here he has a choice to put his money where he believes it will do the most good, and he chooses the private sector.

While at the same time urging higher taxes for all.

The reason you want to put in social contract is because it has the force of coercive law. The force of coercive law is the way that we bind each other in a democratic governance and taxes are that.

Take a good, long look at that statement. A liberal who tells you he's really after revenue is a liar. He's after power.

....liberals say they think it`s their patriotic duty to pay more taxes but they don`t do it. So, to me, that is an act of hypocrisy. If all the liberals who say they want to pay more taxes do so, we could probably reduce this deficit by a lot.

Great find, sick.

Liberals are such hypocrites...

MSNBC won't run this? They're sooooooooo open minded to people with different ideas... /s

Crickets have been chirping regarding Denise Rich renouncing her citizenship over US taxes.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

I would have loved if Moore had mentioned the numerous Democrats that don't even pay their legally owed taxes (while they call for higher taxes)....

[Vendome]

Friggin idiot. The tax code is set by Congress and guess what the profession of many if not most Congressmen was at one point in their lives? They were attorneys.

Congress sets the rules and penalties for minimum taxes, maximum taxes, obligation reductions, etc.

Romney did nothing wrong morally, legally or lawfully.

In fact, IIRC Bill Clinton has accounts in Haiti.

Saying you will do something. And doing something. Are two different things. Just be cause a leftist aka progressives chants they will pay more taxes. Does not mean they will pay more taxes.

[N. Theknow]

So, if I understand this correctly.....

I am supposed to be outraged at what Mitt Romney does with HIS money....

BUT

I am supposed to be happier than a pig in $hit at what Obama does with MY money.

OMG. What an annoying little fruitcake that Chris Hayes is. Now I remember why I haven’t watched MSNBC since’08. Major drama queen alert!
