Unless they have gay friendly steam baths...

It’s pretty simple to create an infusion with vodka and most any fruit. We used to macerate strawberries and vodka with crushed ice and strain it through a sieve to get ice cold strawberry vodka. It was quite tasty.

At the risk of being zotted, I agree with the tax change on flavored vodka. I can think of no reason why the tax should be lowered if you have a flavoring in your booze. But I bet if you follow the legislative history some distiller was generous with a Congressman and "Presto!" flavored booze gets a lower tax rate.

A flat tax would get rid of all these goofy loop holes & deductions anyway.

Here’a hint Obama: if you’re really concerned about the deficit, why are you funding ridiculousness like a study to examine why lesbians are at a higher risk for binge drinking?

The gov waste is the problem, not revenue deficits. I’m just a “dumb” working-class girl and even i can figure that one out.

instituting the “Buffett Rule” of a 30 percent minimum tax rate for people making over $1 million in a year,

I am confused. Don’t we already have an alternative minimum tax?

.... Taxes on the flavored Vodka is just the beginning of the new so called "sin" taxes that will align us with similar social tax structures in other countries.

.... Heck .... There is a reason that Canada enjoys paying double and sometimes triple the price of booze! .... And then after you pay your exorbitant prices you slap down a few more bucks to the government for the multi-level GST (Goods and Services Tax). Of course down here the GST will be called the VAT (Value Added Tax or some other creatively constructed name) but it will be essentially the same thing ... an additional 5-10% to help pay for the new social system of government that we are about to enjoy.

.... But I'm not going to complain about it!!! Cuz .... as the smart ones used to say .... "Elections have consequences" .... so in essence ... the country voted for this..... Twice. And apparently after the post mortem was performed on the Federal Election ... There weren't enough concerned citizens to stop the quick march toward Socialism.

... So .... apparently what the brain-trust of the GOP is recommending for all of us to do at this time is to just cast aside that raggedy old Constitution of ours, stand up in unison and welcome our new overlords then sit right back down and enjoy the ride.
