From where does the idea originate that the smart and hard working should pay more than the stupid and lazy?

You just gotta love a liberal?

>>>the wealthiest 20 percent, whose incomes averaged $182,700

Average? Do you suppose a hard working couple with kids and a healthy mortgage making less than that consider themselves among the "wealthiest" who should be punished for thier hard work via higher taxes?

>>>Kerry will make the report a major political event

A candidate was speaking to a tribe of indians just before an election.

He promised a chicken in every pot!

The croud shouted "OOOOMPAH" "OOOOOMPAH"

He promised a home for every family!

The croud shouted "OOOOMPAH" "OOOOOMPAH"

He promised an education for every child!

The croud shouted "OOOOMPAH" "OOOOOMPAH"

As the candidate stepped down from the platform and Indian stopped him and said, "Careful, don't step in the oooompah".

Sometimes, liberals just can't see it.
