Obama’s Phony Elitst Lament: “I Should Pay More Taxes”
By John W. Lillpop
Once again, Barack Obama has made headlines by saying and doing really foolish things just to pander to his base.
His latest quotable quote was issued to fan the fires of class warfare by calling attention to the issue of “income disparity” which Obama plans to use as a major reelection theme.
Such is life when an incumbent president is forced by fact to divert attention from his performance record, replete as it is with repeated failures and decimation of the American Dream, the U.S. Constitution, and what little civility existed in American politics before this ego-maniac seized power.
Joining a legion of phony-bologna lefties who know damn well that their offers to pay higher taxes will never be heeded, Obama said the following:
“I've been hearing a lot of these Republicans talking about, oh, that's class warfare, and he just wants to redistribute, and doesn't believe in work, and he's trying to create an entitlement society, and this and that and the other. Let me be absolutely clear: I should pay more taxes, and folks in my income bracket should pay more taxes, and certainly folks who are making billions of dollars should pay more taxes, not because I want to take their money and just give it to somebody else. It's because we've got basic investments and basic functions that have to be carried out in this 21st century if we're going to be able to compete.”
With all due respect to the president and liberals like George Soros whom are obsessed with crushing guilt over the ‘unfair’ success they enjoy, the following question must be posed:
Who the hell is stopping you from paying more? Why not put your money where you mouth is and send a bundle(s) of cash to the IRS just for the sake doing so?
Who’s going to stop Obama and the others from paying as much in surplus taxes as they see fit?
Surely, Treasury Boss Tim Geithner is not going to order that overpayments made knowingly and with free will be returned to the sender?
So either send a big fat check to the IRS or stifle all of the self-serving pap about how you should pay more!
