All Is Fair?

Maybe, maybe not, he'd taken a toke off of some medical marijuana to calm down, but State Senator Joe Bolkcom (Dummycrat People's Republic of Johnson County) was a little less agitated for a Cedar Rapids Gazette story about tax changes being considered by Governor Branstad.

“The governor has an interesting proposal but I think we ought to work for a fairer system for working people in this state and that’s what we’ll be advocating for next session.” 

Bolkcom, pictured with Coke, kicked it up a notch for Radio Iowa.

Bolkcom ridicules Branstad’s “pick your tax system” idea

This coming from a man who doesn't want to give you your money back ($54) because he thinks it's better in his hands than yours and the scientific community is united in that fact.

Joe Kristan notes, the politicians’ need for cash is elastic and infinite, no matter how much they have to start with.  It bugs them when they already have your money, like the $54, and they have to give it back.

Not to be outdone, Dummycrat State Senator Jack ASS...err, Hatch ripped Brandstad as well, calling the plan “wrong,” “discredited” and “failed.”

This coming from a gubernatorial candidate whose first major policy decision was a call to raise taxes.

Democrats and taxes, the arrow always goes only one way.

Not to be left out, key emphasis on the left, the Ragister had to include comments from Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement (ICCI, that's ICKY to us).

Democrats, liberals pan Gov. Terry Branstad’s flat tax idea

The Capitol Square Crapper can always be counted on to cite those crazies.
