If anyone is reading this...sorry for the lack of activity. Sometimes you just wonder if there is any point in trying to use reason to cut through all of the crap we hear on a daily basis. It gets you down.
Anyway, I've starting following a few pundits on Twitter in order to keep up on the latest propaganda. Karl Rove made a comment a few weeks ago that Obama letting the tax cuts expire paints him as a classic tax and spend liberal.
Well...you know, Mr Rove, you had a big role to play in the passage of these cuts. It is my understanding that the expiration date was put there because, strangely enough, you (and others) thought that the country could not sustain them any longer. Now, with the deficit exploding, we can't let them expire because it "punishes" those earning more than $250,000 a year.
I think if I were earning that amount of money, I'd be grateful to live in the US and see that as the "cost of doing business."
I tweeted back to him that, by his comments, are the folks on the right "borrow and spend" conservatives?
He didn't respond.
