RE: I’ve ditched them and am now registered as a Conservative.
Is there a conservative party in your state? I am from New York and have been a registered member of the Conservative Party of NY for he longest time.
I am NOT going to give up on the party. I need to fight harder. SO.....I am running for the Republican County Chair. I should have some influence, then. So far, things are looking good!
If I am successful at this, I will have nobody to blame but myself. Time to shift the pendulum. I will not fail.
Yes, it is worse. Obama would be smart to take it, because he gets the republicans as tax-raisers, and yet it isn’t what Obama wanted, so it looks like he capitulated.
And then he can blame the republicans for whatever bad happens as a result, since they didn’t take his plan.
I do wonder if these are really tax increases though, and not simply NOT extending the tax cuts.
Because in January, taxes are going up for everybody. And because of the vote of congress to let this happen two years ago, to allow the tax cuts to expire over not including the millionaires will look very bad.
Suppose the taxes were currently at the clinton rates, and we were arguing over tax cuts. Would we all be upset if we could get a tax cut for everybody EXCEPT those over a million a year? Sure, we’d rather include everybody, but are we now the party of “only give tax cuts to the middle class if we have to to get tax cuts for the rich?
We should either stand strong to get all the tax cuts, or just give up and give Obama his tax cuts, and blame him when the economy sputters.
It took you 40 years to see the truth? Didn't you pay attention to what was going on the first 39 years? The Republicans have done this as far back as I can remember.
