Coming Soon—Asset Tax

Some make you laugh. Some make you angry. But they all give you that "shake your head in amazement feeling" and make you wonder if they really believe what they said.

Comments from the commies:

PBS's Washington Week in Review
Time's Michael Duffy
"The thing I'm curious about is why Dick Armey and Tom DeLay just seem to steam ahead with a conservative approach. They've been like this for a couple of years. Is there just no, no moderation at all? Is there something that can bring them back to the center?"

There has not been a "conservative approach" since Reagan was a one-man show in DC. The Republicans are allowing full steam ahead on socialism and Duffy asks "is there no moderation?"

7/9/01
NBC Nightly News
Brian Williams
"A new report that could cast a cloud over another of the President's proposals to put some Social Security funds in private investment accounts. The study shows popular 401(k) retirement savings plans lost money last year, dipping in value along with the stock market decline, and still showing weakness in the first six months of this year."

Brian, I know they didn't teach you this in liberal arts, but did you bother to check what the long term trend has been for the last seven decades or so with stock prices?

6/24/01
This Week
Derek McGinty on George Bush
"What we're seeing is sort of the unraveling of the public's belief in this whole idea of being a compassionate conservative. What they're seeing now is the corporate conservative that George W. Bush actually is. He's in favor of big business . . . He is a right-wing conservative, for the most part . . .

So they have eliminated American History as a subject in public schools. I guess that they will now eliminate business classes and brainwash the kids that every citizen in the history of the U.S. was employed by some government agency. Why don't they just outlaw the word "business"?

There are two things that you can kiss goodbye forever—make that three, if we include our freedom.

First, the words "tax cut." Second, the words "Republican President."

Tired of the centrist mumble? Here are some refreshing comments straight from the"tell it like it is" school.

Comments from the columnists:

Linda Bowles
"If Bush cannot bring himself to do the right thing and, if necessary, shut down the government to prevent runaway spending by the Congress, the very least he could do is veto the education bill."

Paul Gigot
"Mr. Bush tends to hold firmest on his signature themes, especially the issues he campaigned on . . . .

But on secondary matters, especially those that distract from his main goals, Mr. Bush has no qualms about caving. That explains his early swoon to liberals on education, which was more important to swing voters than to the right."

Yes, Paul, Bush unfortunately does cave easily. But I would disagree that education is a secondary matter, especially after the Jeffords affair. To increase the budget for Education at nearly quadruple the rate of inflation is as clear a sign as any that Bush has no intention of fighting the war against socialism. He should have slashed the budget until the fraud is wrung out of Education and the students' achievement level rose.

Larry Elder
"We call President George W. Bush "conservative." This "conservative" supports the expansion of the federal Department of Education, wishes to use federal dollars for "faith-based" initiatives, supports an investigation into allegations of "steel dumping," and offered a budget with increases over and above inflation. This "conservative" president once said that no American should pay more than one-third (as opposed to zero) of his income to the federal government. This "conservative" president seeks to expand failed or taxpayer rip-off programs like Head Start, DARE and the taxpayer-paid "volunteer" program set up by the Clinton administration."

Jack Kemp
"President George W. Bush would be better advised to spend his time explaining to Greenspan how to get monetary policy right, telling Congress to cut the capital gains tax rate and reform the tax code, and making sure his Social Security Commission comes up with a plan for creating personal retirement accounts. If the United States moves unilaterally to adopt these three critical reforms, there won't be a need to get together in another G-8 economic confab."
