On Fox News Sunday, conservative pundit and Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol warned the GOP that “elections have consequences” and it shouldn’t “fall on its sword” in defense of lower taxes for millionaires.“The leadership in the Republican Party and the leadership in the conservative movement has to pull back, let people float new ideas,” Kristol said. “Let’s have a serious debate. Don’t scream and yell when one person says, ‘You know what? It won’t kill the country if we raise taxes a little bit on millionaires.’ It really won’t, I don’t think.”
“I don’t really understand why Republicans don’t take Obama’s offer to freeze taxes for everyone below $250,000 — make it $500,000, make it a million,” Kristol argued. “Really? The Republican Party is going to fall on its sword to defend a bunch of millionaires, half of whom voted Democratic and half of them live in Hollywood?”

Holy ****! :shock: Are some conservatives actually opening their eyes? Are they finally banking away from this "no taxes on the rich" bull****? Are they finally gonna sacrifice the interests of the richest of the rich for the rest of the American public?

What was wrong with 28% as agreed to by Democrats back in Reagan's years?
When a patient is hemorrhaging, adding new blood is one answer, but you should
probably stop the blood flow first.
That's when the deficit started blowing up out of control.
What?In that case, it won't kill the country to reduce their taxes either.
"Parasite Nation"? "Class warfare"?It's a question... do you want to embrace and foment Parasite Nation or do you want to fight for a government free of fomenting class warfare?
What?Hell... let Parasite Nation take it all.
Lets see here when your government is not bringing in enough revenue and you want to get rid of the debt and deficit lowering taxes especially on the richest is not the answer. Plus thats when the deficit exploded was under these tax rates.What was wrong with 28% as agreed to by Democrats back in Reagan's years?

So are you done using all these rhetoric?
No, you should almost certainly stop the bleeding, transfusions may carry their own significant risks however. My physician took the chance of no-transfusion to avoid tranfusion related injury (blood-borne disease), and let me be anemic for some months to recoup naturally.You should probably stop the bleeding and give a transfusion to replace the blood that's already been lost.
Democrats did not do as they agreed... to cut spending.
Reagan's tax cuts generated more tax revenue... there was full employment and wages increased... and the Dems spent it all and more.
You do know what Baseline Budgeting is?
The Great Society.
The Fair Deal.
ObamaKare. (Coming soon to a debt laden country near you).
PONZI SCHEMES... that will do to America what they did to NY Democrat Bernie Madoff.
Parasite Nation creating dependency... debt... and misery... everywhere it has been tried.
C'mon man. Loose the rhetoric.... Its pathetic really.
Wouldn't a better graph be deficit with the colors being which party held the house of Representatives.That only seems to support what he is saying.

Would you like to elaborate? Try your hand at making a full sentence with nouns and verbs?What?
Yes... that's what you support. That's the purpose of graduated taxation. To divide people. To make them envious. To demand government thieve wealth for them."Parasite Nation"? "Class warfare"?
Try a sentence. You sound like a Yenta.What?
Lower taxes, cut regulations, and watch unemployment melt. Cut government spending to the bone. Increased revenue and a smaller government will reduce our debt.Lets see here when your government is not bringing in enough revenue and you want to get rid of the debt and deficit lowering taxes especially on the richest is not the answer. Plus thats when the deficit exploded was under these tax rates.

I always think more information is better, the graph showed the accumulating debt vs whichI don't think so. Regardless of what the Republican rhetoric is they have been just as much of an influence as Democrats and the out of control spending.
