I would agree replacing the income tax with a federal sale tax, but they would have to repeal the 16th amendment first. |

I would bet they don't repeal the 16th amendment, They will just say we wont impose any federal income tax on the people. The amendment does not say there has to be an income tax. It just gives permission for congress to impose one. They can just ignore it and if it is not repealed, they can just impose an income tax down the road after they once again start overspending because not enough revenue comes in from a sales tax.. moo Edited by chatham, Sep 18 2012, 08:37 PM.

A couple observations/opinions: 1.Drove to and from Charlotte airport yesterday. I never saw any news footage of the anti-Obama billboards that seem to pop up on a frequent basis along I85. The One and his acolytes certainly got an eyeful coming and going. 2. Mr F thinks that video was the Oct surprise and they were forced to realease it early because Buffoon's being hit sideways ever whichway...with his incompetency near and far. But unlike McCain, this group does not hestitate to hit back. Loved the Drudge "redistribution" video. 3. I think the dueling videos give an opportunity here and Romney has plenty of time nefore the debates to frame his answers. |

Via New York Post: Nix the flags and the podium. Cue the opulent 18-foot tower of gold-bottled French champagne. When President Obama addresses an elite roster of hipsters and multimillionaires, including hosts Beyoncé and Jay-Z, in New York tonight, he will do so next to a custom-designed tower of $800-per-bottle champagne that dominates the main room at Jay-Z’s 40/40 nightclub. The 350-bottle champagne tower — designed by Jeffrey Beers — is a monument to Jay-Z’s favorite bubbly, Armand de Brignac, which is known colloquially by rappers, clubgoers and connoisseurs as Ace of Spades because of its gold-spade label. “It’s floor-to-ceiling gold bottles in the entire space. It’s beautiful — breathtaking,” a rep for the Flatiron District hot spot told The Post. “It’s the first thing you see when you walk in.” But the White House, which meticulously controls Obama’s image, is not expected to release any photos of the president’s appearance at the lavish club. Details of the party are “under lock and key,” according to the rep, and the White House was guarding the guest list as if it were the latest intelligence profile of Iran’s nuclear program. |

from weasel zippers Obama: Jay-Z “Knows What My Life Is Like”… Pimpin’ ain’t easy. Via Beltway Confidential: After President Obama was introduced by Beyoncé and Jay-Z, he explained to the famous rap artist that they had something in common. “Beyoncé couldn’t be a better role model for our daughters because she carries herself with such class and poise and has so much talent,” Obama said. “And Jay-Z now knows what my life is like. We both have daughters, and our wives are more popular than we are.” Keep reading… |
