House
Appropriations Committee Chairman David Obey plans to demand a new
surtax to pay for any new troop increases in Afghanistan, ABC News
reports.
"There ain't going to be no money for nothing if we pour it all into
Afghanistan," House Appropriations Chairman David Obey told ABC News in
an exclusive interview. "If they ask for an increased troop commitment
in Afghanistan, I am going to ask them to pay for it." Obey, a
Democrat, made it clear that he is absolutely opposed to sending any
more US troops to Afghanistan and says if President Obama decides to do
that, he'll demand a new tax -- what he calls a "war surtax" -- to pay
for it.

National defense is constitutionally mandated, Enshrining a schmuck president's hick brother's gas station is not. FA!

"...we shall tax them on the beaches, we shall tax them on the landing grounds, we shall tax them in the fields and in the streets, we shall tax them in the hills; we shall never surrender..."

Another day, another career politician who never worked a real job as an adult.

The unedited version: "There ain't going to be no money for nothing if we pour it all into Afghanistan," House Appropriations Chairman David Obey told ABC News in an exclusive interview. "otherwise we have plenty of money for nothing."

Constitution? We don't need no f**king constitution. We're President Utopia and his merry band of tax cheats and fornicators! Soon to be unemployed (Lord willing and the creeks don't rise)!
ReplyDeleteApparently that pinhead Obey is under the [mistaken] impression that we are to take his name literally? Pshaw!
