True and the left constantly mis represents that Reagan raised taxes.

[Seshmeister]

Well its offcial! Bachmann is outta here! THANK FUCKIN GAWD!

I still find it worrying that she can make it to the top 6, get over $10 million in funds or more importantly get elected into Congress!!

I was hoping for the husband to be outed during the campaign, I guess we'll need to wait a bit longer.

Really? So the 2 tax bills in 1982 and 1984 raising taxes to an all time, peace time high never happened?

Tinfoil hat much, dude?

[kwame k]

The Tax Equity And Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 which was described at the time as the largest tax increase in American history. TEFRA accomplished this largely by cancelling out several tax cuts that had been included in The Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981, [link] President Reagan’s signature fiscal package of his first year in office. TEFRA was necessitated by the decline in revenue caused by the ongoing recession, and it was supported by President Reagan; Link

The Highway Revenue Act of 1982 increased the Federal Gasoline Tax by more than 100% (from 4 cents per gallon to 9 cents per gallon) and lasted until September 1988Link

The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act Of 1985
[link] changed the rules under which employer provided health plans would be tax deductible, thus increasing taxes for employers who failed to comply with the rules; and,

The Tax Reform Act Of 1986 lowered tax rates but also eliminated tax shelters and a broad range of deductions, including the tax deduction for credit card interest, and expanded to application of the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) so that it now applies to more middle class families than ever before.

It really isn't correct or fair to say Regan raised taxes. In effect he did but the overall effect and reasons behind it are important to note.

Two bills passed in 1982 and 1984 together "constituted the biggest tax increase ever enacted during peacetime," Thorndike said.

The bills didn't raise more revenue by hiking individual income tax rates though. Instead they did it largely through making it tougher to evade taxes, and through "base broadening" -- that is, reducing various federal tax breaks and closing tax loopholes.

All told, the tax increases Reagan approved ended up canceling out much of the reduction in tax revenue that resulted from his 1981 legislation.



You can have the hat back sir.

Well see unlike you liberals we don't necessarily have to agree on all the issues. I really don't consider gay marriage to be an issue. I also don't really give a fuck about abortion but I do stick to defense spending, foreign policy, the fucked up economy, taxes , border protection etc...

Sorry, everyone having equal rights isn't debatable, or something that needs to be "agreed upon". And Republicans FAIL on every other point you mention - they overspend on defense, are responsible for F*ing up the economy for the most part, and only care about taxes when it pertains to the rich. Plus your party's racist xenophobia shouldn't factor into border enforcement. Face it, your party is out of touch and lost. Mittens is a joke, and Paul's being against the civil rights act is laughable -but do you really think dog-froth has a chance in the general election against Obama with his extremist views?

Congrats on being in denial like Eric Cantor...

I'm sorry but your party is fucked.

Pretty soon it will be just like the good ole days. We'll have the President and the House and not long after that the Senate.

To bad we can't deport Liberals.

Yeah, that worked out great for ALL Americans when Dubya had the majority!

Coming from a mouth-breather like you that's a compliment.

Then you'll wake up from said dream. Not gonna happen. You're a dinosaur.

TOO bad you still can't write (or think) above the level of a 2nd-grader in your 40s, but it does go to explain your affiliation to the party that hates knowledge...

You really are a fucking asshole jhale. I can't believe you just called me a dinosaur.

Fuck You!

Walk it off, whiner!

Fuck You!

Wow, someone's panties are in a bunch...
Uh, let's review: you align yourself with flawed, antiquated and soon to be EXTINCT mentalities like racism, dude. You've gone on record here supporting Rethug idiots like Bachmann and (p)Rick Perry, and agreed with despicable things Paul and dog froth have said - It's not a stretch.

If it makes you feel any better, I meant it in the "Barney" sense of the word... y'know, you're not at all dangerous, fearsome, or all that bright...

[kwame k]

Wonder if his head would explode by having to face the facts that Dubya's tax cuts didn't create any jobs and put us in the mess we are in now
