RE :”That is what Mr. Norquist was talking about, though, when he spoke to The Hill newspaper about the legislation proposed by Sen. Schumer, the Democrat of New York, to tax at a 30 percent rate the $2 billion capital gains of Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, who renounced his American citizenship before Facebook’s initial public offering.
“I think Schumer can probably find the legislation to do this. It existed in Germany in the 1930s and Rhodesia in the ‘70s and in South Africa as well,” Norquist said. “He probably just plagiarized it and translated it from the original German.”
Sen. Schumer is an easy target, but the blame for this one is bipartisan, as is so often the case in Washington. The speaker of the House, John Boehner, a Republican, told ABC News’ “This Week” that Saverin’s exit from America was “outrageous” and that he would support Schumer’s legislation if it is necessary to prevent people from leaving America to avoid taxes.

Good old Boehner who pushed the TARP vote on his members in 2008 is showing his statist colors. This just proves my point : Beating Dems and then taking control with the WRONG Republican leaders is a recipe for disaster, even if you think the alternative wants to destroy the country, but Republicans are just well meaning fools that do it by accident.

Republican rally point : Vote Republican because they only help destroy the country by accident(we have to get lucky sooner or later).

Boehner is by far the worst we have. He appears to be on Obama’s side.
