Nothing is stopping the hypocrites from writing a check. They should change all of the 1040 forms and include a block that reads “If you’re a socialist and think everyone else should pay more taxes, check here” and they will automatically pay double!
The Dems are in the interesting position of trying to convince the half of the population that doesn’t pay taxes that a tax cut is bad.
can you provide a link so I can prove this to my friend who thinks the rats are wonderful?
That’s so gay!
That would be a heck of great thing by itself.
I think this should be taken up with the state and local tax entities. Why should we all cover state and local deductions through federal taxes?
We live in NYS. We own a home. We think SALT deductions should go. Why should our fellow citizens subsidize the profligacy of our state and local pols?
Check this out. Once I got the numbers correct it matched my spreadsheets I use every year to calculate my taxes. I save ~15% on my federal taxes.
RUSH: Where the hell do they get that? Sixty-three percent of the American people ? Why not 65%? Why not 80%? Sixty-three percent of Americans say that the Trump family will be better off because How do they know that? But you notice the theme. Every Drive-By we chose there is trying to kill the bill by telling people that Trump is doing it so he personally will benefit and to hell with everybody else. This is not your standard, ordinary, everyday media bias observation.
Thats not whats going on. This is not media bias. This goes so far beyond media bias. This is not media malpractice. This isnt journalistic malpractice. This goes way beyond any of that. This isnt journalism. This isnt the news. It is what journalism has become. But, I mean, this isnt the news. This is nothing more than hard-core agenda advocacy, pretending to be and disguised as, quote-unquote, media or news. It isnt true.
A lot of it is made up. A lot of it is sourced from anonymous people without the guts or courage to put their names to it. Its desperation. Its a Hail Mary. It is anything and everything and it doesnt matter what to stop Trump. Ive never seen anything like it, even with the second most hated presidency in our lifetimes. That would be Ronald No, no. Richard Nixon. Quick, before we go to the break: Whats Nixons middle name? (interruption) Way to go. You passed the test.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Now, lets go back to the Democrats and the tax bill for a second, cause I want to make a point. Were gonna get to Trumps speech yesterday. It is pretty much exactly what I thought it was when I only saw one-line excerpts as graphics on the bottom of TV screens, the news networks reporting the Trump speech. Its just fabulous. Its great for what it is and what it is, and we have audio sound bites to go with it. Now, Im reminding you. When the Democrats propose any kind of legislation over the last 30 years, what do our guys do?
They propose a counter, but they accept the premise. Democrats come along and want to nationalize health care. The Republicans put forth their own version, not quite as bad. They say, Its smarter, but they accept the premise that there needs to be legislation along the lines of what the Democrats want. We sit here and pull our hairs out because we thought wed elected people to stop this. We thought wed elected people to fight this. We thought wed elected people that, when the Democrats spoke up with their agenda, were gonna stand up and say, No!
The Democrats, on the other hand, dont have an agenda. Now, you may have seen stories this week and last week particularly after the Alabama election that are now predicting a blue wave, meaning, The Democrats are gonna win it all back next year! The Democrats are gonna take back the House next year, and then theyre gonna get started to impeaching Trump, and then the Democrats are gonna win back the Senate next year, even though theyve got 25 seats they have to protect, Oand then in 2020 the Democrats are gonna win the White House!
Its either gonna be Bernie Sanders or Fauxcahontas. Maybe even Hillary again! But the Democrats, by 2020, are gonna have total control of the government back, after they won the Alabama election, after they won the Virginia election. Youve seen it in the news. Youve seen it in the Drive-Bys. The Democrats are partying hardy. They think its over. They think that they have succeeded in creating the number one thing they need to win, which is not an agenda. Cause they dont have an agenda. All they have is Trump hatred. That is it. And they know it.
And they think its enough. Theyre very happy with that. That is it. That is the sole message theyve got, as we enter the election period for 2018: Trump hatred. They think they have succeeded in convincing all of those Trump voters in the blue states that voted for Trump to now hate him. They think they have succeeded in convincing a majority of Americans that Trump is a mistake, a disaster, a reprobate, a pig, and that hes gone. He deserves to be impeached!
They do not have an agenda. Now, wait. Dont misunderstand. They have an agenda. Its called socialism. Their agenda is called taking over the United States government and transforming this country out of and away from the way it was founded. I mean, thats their agenda, but thats the broad-based agenda that doesnt change. But Im talking about an agenda that can be articulated in campaigns. They cant say that.
Theyre getting close, though. Theyre getting close to thinking theyve reached the point where they can be honest about running down this country as founded, running down the white, Christian foundation of this country. They think theyve got to the point where they can win elections by beating up on all that. But theyre not quite there yet. So theyre relying on Trump hatred. Yesterday, they scheduled this massive tax cut protest, and they couldnt even pay a bunch of protesters to show up
Once again, this is in the American Mirror: Pelosi Bails on Tax Cut Protest After Only Handful of Activists Show Up. Why couldnt they get a bunch of actors? I mean, theyve got the rent-a-mobs. Theyve got their people that they hire, got people that hire people that show up and protest a Trump rally, a legislative session, a Senate hearing, a House hearing, you name it. There are thousands of people out there willing to be paid to show up and protest.
They couldnt find anybody to show up and protest in a tiny conference room at Capitol Hill where Pelosi was gonna speak against the tax cut. Why do you think that is? And what do the Democrats have in response to this? Okay, heres Trump and the Republicans with a very sweeping, comprehensive tax cut proposal. Whats the Democrats response to it? What is their version? They dont have one, folks.
Theres not a single one of them that wants to even get on board conceptually with tax cuts, and there isnt a single one of them that wants to put forth opposition to it. Their entire agenda is hatred of Trump and attempting to gin up as much of it as they can.
So I ask you, is that enough? Is that enough for them to win the House? Lets just keep it at that. Is ginning up hatred for Trump across the country, can they do that? Can they gin up enough hatred to propel the Democrats back in control of the House? And nothing else. No other agenda items, no other promises, no other, heres what we stand for, heres what were gonna do, nothing positive. They dont dare go positive because things are supposed to be so bad that they cant do anything but talk about how bad it is.
Their websites cannot have one positive click, not one positive headline. Every website on the left and every click, every headline must be doom-and-gloom. Can they win? Im asking you. Is that enough? Is hatred for Trump enough? Keep in mind, as you think about this, 91% of all Trump coverage in the media that most Americans access is negative, and all of these negative, anti-, bad Obama and Democrat stories are not being reported, theyre not being referenced.
The traditional low-information voter doesnt even know of the chicanery on the Mueller committee and the investigation team. They dont even know how Obama willingly let Hezbollah continue to track cocaine into the country so as not to anger the Iranians. They dont know this. That hasnt been reported, nor has the text messages between Strzok and his mistress and whats been going on on the Mueller team to sabotage on Trump. Its not being reported. I mean, they got 47% of the American people in a poll claiming to oppose and hate the Trump tax cut bill. Think about it.
The slimes wants me to subscribe to them I refuse to.
I had nothing against Cruz, but I did not vote for him in the primaries.
If you want to pay more to the federal govt, feel free to send them more money on a voluntary basis. For you and the GOP to force others to pay higher taxes unwillingly , makes you look like Democrats
That’s why you read their articles online. Mine went straight to the link.
This wasn’t there when I first posted the article and I did something else.
I tried to, but it didn’t let me read it.

This tax bill would change all our lives for the better save some in blue states.
Thats why I feel like the Senates gonna fumble it.
Social security is a payroll tax and is not touched by this in any way. You pay %6.2 and your employer pays 6.2% on your behalf: 12.4% total.
Yes it is!
Yes it is!
