Take your TAX PLAN and take a hike!

Nowhere can you find me advocating higher taxes. I made an observation that eventually something has to give, and higher taxes is one of the "somethings". If you want to do battle over my position, at least make sure you know what it is. Your desire for making the tax cuts permanent (a point of view I agree with, by the way) would be better served by taking all that energy and aggravation and writing to your members of congress, urging them to get the spending under control. That's what I've been doing.

You originally said: "At some point taxes will have to go up"

Anybody who makes that kind of statement is not a conservative. At no time are taxes the answer; and especially they are not the answer when we are just recovering from a hit like we've had in the last 3 years (in a recession, 9-11, company corruption, war in Iraq).

When you cut taxes, REVENUES INCREASE .. it's econ 101, and a proven fact. If revenues increase THE DEFICIT DECREASES. That's why you DON'T HAVE TO INCREASE TAXES.

And .. don't be getting uppity with me about what you've been doing; you have no idea what I've been doing so your statement is rude and uncalled for.
