I would agree to this. There would have to be exemptions from a nat ional sales tax - food, gasoline, drugs, and things already taxed. I would see thresholds on high pocket items - like a house or a car. But, there would be import charges on everything made overseas. And, taxes would be unholy on companies that take American jobs overseas. I am talking 50%. One for every two....

Why? The man has absolutely no chance of getting the nomination. His only allure to voters is his right wing religious views. We are more concerned about the cost of gasoline rather than whether a sperm is a human being or gay marriage. Now, his ideas on taxes are interesting....

This is from a man who doesn't talk. I mean, Nixon went to China, Reagan talked to Gorbechev. Can you imagine what might happen if GW invited Raul Castro to the White House? Or Hugo Chavez? America is in a war that has taken 3976 dead and 28,773 wounded. What could have happened if diplomacy was used instead of ultimatums about non-existant WMD? The more you talk - the less you fight. George Bush has destroyed America's credibility in the world. "W" indeed does mean worse... And, I mean worse - ever.

If we leave Iraq and al-Qaeda moves in - We will have $200 a barrel oil. Well, last I heard, Iraq isn't pumping out that much oil. And, besides - oil was trading at $36 a barrel when we invaded and it is at $103. Al-Qaeda in Iraq? Obama is correct - al-Qaeda wasn't in Iraq before we invaded. And, besides that - the Sunni Arabs are turning against the foreign terrorist. The fear needs to be the Shiites and their ties to our foe Iran. Mahmoud Admadinejad is in Baghdad meeting with Iraqi Primed Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

This is a standard GOP practice to divert our attention away from the issues that are critical to working class Americans. We are talking about the economy not terrorism. Gas is $3 a gallon and forecasted to go to $4, you should see all the vacant homes with foreclosure notices on the windows, our dollar is weak overseas - and, prices on food are sky-rocketing...... GW screamed on and on about America being safer while he hasn't done a damned thing to capture or kill Osama Bin-Laden. America is being invaded right this minute by a horde or illegal immigrants. He hasn't made any effort to secure our borders....
Don't listen to the drums of fear - Run these bastards out of office!
