Tax Hikes
I almost fell over when I read a headline this afternoon, attributed to Bush, and reported by ABC news. It read, "Bush: Kerry's plans would require a tax hike." Is he serious? Like the largest deficits ever aren't going to require pain and suffering at some point? What world does this guy live in? I don't recall anyone predicting the deficit improving under this administration. Who do they think is going to pay for all of the debt they've racked up? The Russians?
Headlines like this should infuriate true, and thinking, conservatives. Since when did the Democrats become the penny pinchers and the Republicans become the spenders? The biggest problem with Bush's approach is he's missing the "Tax" part of the "Tax and Spend" slogan. Believe me, I understand the concept of more jobs, more productivity equals a better tax base but not if you cut taxes and then fail to improve real productivity.
I have a theory that Bush is dyslexic. When he was a child, he read Robin Hood but got the robbing from the rich part backwards. He's robbing from the poor and giving it to the rich!
One last thing before I post this, I want to introduce you to a great blog published by the BikeGuy. Read his open letter to the President but especially just enjoy the rants. Thanks BikeGuy!
Someday I'll figure out how to post favorite links over on the right side of my blog like others do. Unfortunately, my knowledge of HTML would fit in a thimble and I can't code my way out of a paper bag so, for now, I'll just insert them as I find them.

Thanks Politico! I promise to keep on ranting - even after the election is over.
