My friends, according to a Senate Democrat, you are a terrorist if you want to take home more of your pay check and give less the the federal government. This is what the fight has become to save the Bush tax cuts, liberal democrats reaching as far as they can to insult the hard working American people once again hoping to extend Uncle Sam's hands, no the Federal Reserve's hands, deeper into your pockets.
Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) on Friday compared the tax-cut fight with Republicans to negotiating with terrorists, while Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri suggested Americans might need to “take up pitchforks" if Congress renews tax breaks for the wealthy.
“Do you allow yourself to be held hostage and get something done for the sake of getting something done, when in fact it might be perverse in its ultimate results?” Menendez said, when asked whether he and other Democrats would compromise with Republicans. “It’s almost like the question of do you negotiate with terrorists.”
Notice the vile Claire McCaskill also hints at as she suggest class warfare with pitchforks. They want their hands in our pockets, and the dirty little secret is they are coming for more beyond just the Bush tax cuts. Obama's deficit reduction committee is pushing for .15 a gallon more at the pump for the federal government. What have they done to prove to any of us they will be responsible with our money. NOTHING!
We should have our pitch forks ready for Senator McCaskill and Senator Menendez over this, as our economy barely breathes. Now is not the time to raise taxes. Keep an eye out for when Claire announces she will bake her annual Christmas cookies, and we can show up outside of her kitchen.
