Shot coffee out my nose when I saw this.

Maybe somebody should call him a "lying dog-faced pony soldier" that should make if all better.

I'm all for simplifying the tax code. Last year was the first in over 20 that I didn't go long form on taxes. With the standard deduction being doubled I couldn't beat it with a long form.
Now if they would quit killing me with property tax I'd be happier.
Flat or consumption without exemptions sounds great. Unfortunately the beast is greedy, income tax, sales tax, fuel tax, property tax the list is ridiculous.

I have made it very clear through the years on this forum that I would love a flat tax. A flat tax would put an end to class warfare. People aren't upset that rich people are rich, they get upset when they make $30k a year and pay more tax than a billionaire or corporation. A flat % tax, with no loop holes would fix that and help get rid of the deficit. Who knows, once the deficit is gone, maybe we could have extra money for great social and recreational programs. I would have voted for Cruz if he were the nominee last time, because he said wanted a flat tax.
If I was an owner of a business, I would expect my business to get the flat tax, and my income as an employee of my company to get hit with the flat tax. Since my wages wouldn't count as profit for the company, it wouldn't get taxed twice, it would only get taxed on my personal income records.
I would want companies only to get taxed on profit, not all income as much of that goes right back out the door to employees and other businesses.
The problem with a flat tax is that nobody wants a truly flat tax. Everybody, bottom to top pays the same percent. All the plans I've seen allow people at the bottom end to be exempt. It won't happen because it doesn't pander to any group to get votes.

The whole Bernie thing is a comedy of bad decisions by the DNC. First they needed somebody for Hillary to beat in the Primary. Who better than an old, white, male socialist that isn't even a Democrat to lose to their chosen one. They didn't realize how bad a candidate she would be and needed to save her with super delegates at the convention. Now he's popular and they need the voters he captured so let him run again as a Democrat. If they steal it from him again they lose the young Bernie voters. Crazy Uncle Joe is just icing on the cake at this point.

I so enjoy watch Crazy Uncle Joe, I'll miss him when he drops out.

Peanut and chocolate are good together. Let me introduce you to hot chocolate and Skrewball, it's a winter treat.

found this today.....
I highly doubt there are two buttholes with that name....This is probably fake, a newspaper wouldn't name a juvenile suspect in their article.

Opinions masquerading as fact has become the new reality. Facts and opinions are not the same thing.
"We choose truth over facts" as Crazy Uncle Joe said. It's slightly more dangerous than that now. It's more like We choose our own truth over facts.

He finished strong.
James Carville
"I think the other side wants us to think there are no swing voters, that we’re doomed and it doesn’t even matter if you have a message because you can’t reach anyone. I think that’s bullshit. I think that’s a wholly incorrect view of American politics. But look, if no one’s persuadable, then let’s just have the revolution.
Falling into despair won’t help anyone, though. I mean, you can curse the darkness or you can light a candle. I’m getting a fucking welding torch. Okay?"
Maybe he should be running.
He would have a better chance than the current field.

This is an interesting read, even WOLF might find it interesting.

Two observations from the SOTU address.
1. Nancy did the equivalent of flipping a game board when you're losing when she tore up the speech.
2. Trump made all those Democrats attend Rush Limbaugh's award ceremony. Well played Mr. President.

Stepped right into McClain's spot. Maybe his magic underwear were riding up.

They will find a way to rig it so Biden wins!
Disagree, they sacrificed Biden for impeachment now it's trying to stop Bernie. This will be a trial run for 2024, they know they can't beat Trump. Getting name recognition for the future which means old white people are out.

Did the Kansas or Missouri team win?
Chiefs Kingdom knows not boundaries.

Sounds like the app they used in Iowa isn't giving the Dems the results they wanted. It must make it to hard to rig a vote count.

I think my favorite thing said during the impeachment was by Schiff. He actually said that if they don't impeach Trump he could give Alaska back to Russia. WTF

Watching some of the impeachment trial this morning. Some of these folks shouldn't speak in public, the screachy voices are an assault on my ears. Why can't we get Morgan Freeman to read their speeches for them.
If this lady keeps saying Quid pro crow I'm going to start drinking.
