I bet it's a fake like the Roman coins that have 100 BC written on them.

Haven't had your Mountain Dew yet, I see.

If Repubicans believe lower taxes is the only way to get a brazillionaire to create jobs, they should truly own it and advocate brazillionaires pay NO taxes as a way to thank them for letting us polish their knobs and whatnot.

Ah the Irish! America's 19th century muslins with their Catholic drunken ways, taking orders from the Pope to destroy American values. At least that's what the Know Nothing Party said.

Ah the Know Nothing Party! America's 19th century Tea Party.

Last time I looked, Congress had to authorize spending. And taxes. if the Repubicans or Congress want a balanced budget, all they need to do is pass one.

I assumed all along it was just a big game of political chicken. Two crazy drivers driving head-on into each other, except one driver is backing up and the other idiot is gaining speed.

Well, the quarter had a Mexican on it back in the day -- "Gimme five Mexicans for a quarter," you'd say. Meanwhile I had a Puerto Rican on my belt, as was the style at the time.

Unfortunately, the Baggers are too rabid to listen to Wall St. It all goes to whether Boner can beat off the crazies w/ his Big Gavel.

Well said! I wonder how Nancy Pelosi was able to hold back on making a dick joke when she saw Boner wielding that ridiculously large wooden dildo. I would have gone with "Jesus, you must have one huge, gaping asshole!'

Meanwhile, P.T. Barnum, LLP and like-minded tycoon clubs are busily shorting U.S. bonds, so they can pocket several billion dollars more at our expense. A fraction of the winnings will be recycled into GOP political action committees.

Stupidity is a wonderful thing, once you spread enough of it around. Sort of like manure.

My only addition to your comment is that John and his gang of merry minions needs to drop the man-love relationship with Grover Norquist. This jackwad doesn't want to pay any taxes but I bet he just loves him roadways in D.C. and Virginia, clean restaurants because of health inspectors, etc.

I consider Norquist a treasoner. It's a harsh word but he clearly fails to understand the constitutionality of taxes with representation. John Adams is currently doing cat flips in his grave everytime he hears that G.E. didn't pay taxes last year.

I was wondering how the teatards compressed their comments to 140-character twits.
