RE :”As a matter of principle, Republicans should be against this tax increase. This bill is about politicians in cash-strapped states (e.g. California) looking for new sources of income to fund their already irresponsible spending. Please do not be a party to that.”

The GOP had better not become tax collectors for lib governors like Martin O Malley and Jerry Brown by supporting this crap.

I see McCain and many others voted to stab us in the back with this in Senate.

I don’t believe any republican who advocates “enhancing revenue” is any variety of fiscal conservative.

If the prongs of political conservatism are: social, economic, and defense, one would think that a conservative would be laughable if he didn’t support at least 2 of those 3 prongs. (Personally, I think 3 of 3 is required.)

Just being a defense hawk would mean that Joe Lieberman qualifies as a conservative. That’s just silliness. And we already know that McCain is not a social conservative.

Has it occurred to anyone that the proposed internet sales tax is exactly a tariff between states? We all know how tariffs suppress the economy.
