downvote for lack of redeeming value

Then you must know nearly HALF of all Americans pay NO federal income tax. Hmmm...I notice that same HALF shows no restraint on slurping up entitlements and welfare social services. You're in trouble when the tick is as big as the dog.

Yeah, borrow-n-spend isn't much better than tax-n-spend, but take a step back and note what all this money is being spent on. Hint: it's not "racism".

There's the big lie. Tax and spend.
I do taxes for a living. I know how low the taxes are that folks are paying.
Did you know that you can have taxable income of $40,000 and pay zero income tax?
Oh, well, it has to be a long term capital gain -- this doesn't apply to wages or pensions, which is what most people in America have as a source of income.
Zero Percent tax on long term capital gains and qualified dividends in many cases.
Don't tell me we are taxing ourselves to death. It's a lie.
Guess who came up with this brilliant tax strategy? It wasn't a Democrat.

If history is any indicator, there's plenty to fear from these communist thugs posing as a legitimate government. Unfortunately, the worldwide number of people murdered by communism is 100 million, a number so great it's usually reserved for stars or grains of sand.
Anyway, this submission as framed is a bizarre attempt at misdirection, bizarre because those opposed to cutting government spending are going to drown as well.
The actual video concerns obvious truths the left refuses to heed: no government has ever taxed and spent itself into prosperity, we now owe crushing debt to foreign enemies, future generations are already burdened.
As the Chinese Proverb goes: "If we don't change the direction we're going, we're going to end up where we're headed."

Aw, I thought it was going to be more like this classic political ad.

@blankfist I keep getting these e-mails from CFL and Ron Paul saying that the DISCLOSE Act will be the end of free speech. In reality, it's legislation that will require corporations that run direct political ads to clearly identify who paid for the ads. This is mostly a response to the FEC v. Citizens United decision that struck down a large portion of the campaign finance reform laws.

Where do you stand on this?

Is DISCLOSE a secret liberal plot to end free speech, or a mild attempt to address the craziness that is the Citizens United decision?

Political advertising - it's as low as you can get.


Umm, okay. As a general statement, I'm with ya.

As a comment for this video? You've lost me.

How is accusing the GOP of wanting to re-enact the Bush policy agenda "low"?

For a political ad, this is almost naively fair and balanced.

I think you'll find there's a difference between Martin Luther, and Martin Luther KING Jr.
They both had dreams but one is famous for talking about his.


True enough, but yours doesn't fit into Mike Weinstein's iambic pentameter.

I didn't know the makers of Appalachian State's "Hot Hot Hot" graduated and got into political ad-making.

Very nice sounding, but it's a staged political ad made to look like it was a random person asking him on the street.
