Kiss my a$$. You're rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic with this stupid "Fair Tax" boondoggle.

The government's proposing a $2.8 trillion budget for 2007, and you're trying to figure out a better way to give it to them. Cut spending to 10% of GDP, THEN figure out the best way to give it to Congress.

No, I don't think that I will.

Tell me how successful you have been in the last 8, 16, 24 or even 40 years in getting spending down?

Do you have any support in Congress for your proposal to cut 90% of spending?

Has anyone introduced your plan? Has the president pledged to sign it if it hits his desk?

Do you have a plan to win over the American people in support of your plan?

Have you convinced all of the special interests groups to forsake their desire for government (taxpayer) largesse?

No, I don't think you do, can, or will. I think that it is more likely that you are protecting the status quo for some narrow self interest and are just hiding behind your '90% spending cut' BS.
