THE ULTIMATE CHUTZPAH

President Obama is asking people to quit buying wedding gifts and to make a donation to his campaign instead.  For those getting married, he’s asking them to send out cards to their guests asking them to donate to Obama instead of buying a wedding gift.  You can even register your wedding on his campaign website. 

COMMENTS:

And, if your donation is big enough, he’ll let you use his figurine on your wedding cake. 

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:

Q. What is your opinion of the food stamp program?  (Millie ~ Rock Springs, WY)

A. I think that it is a worthwhile program that is badly abused and full of corruption.  If we could stop the waste and fraud, I think we could cut the costs by 60%.  No one in Washington, however, knows how to cut anything. 

Q. I heard that Obama intends to raise the “death tax?”  (Howie ~ Lancaster, CA)

A. He plans to raise the estate tax to 55%.  I guess this is what he envisions:  you win $10 million in the lottery and pay 30% taxes on it, leaving $7 million.  You die leaving your money to your son, and there’s a 55% tax leaving $3.15 million.  Your son then pays 30% tax leaving $2.2 million…. Ad infinitum.   He'll have your entire family fortune within three generations.  

Q. Maxine Waters wants to go toe-to-toe with the Tea Party?  (Estelle ~ Salt Lake City, UT)

A. Waters is the target of a House Ethics Committee inquiry into allegations that she attempted to facilitate federal bailout financing and do special favors for a bank when her husband had stock in the company worth about $200,000.  Last month she accused the party of harboring a “mean spirit” in a video posted on Youtube. “I don’t know what party they’ve been to — that must have been some bitter tea,” she said. “They came with a mean spirit, and now they want to cut the food stamps. They don’t want to fund education. They want to give all of the tax breaks to the richest people.” She’s the one who let it slip on the House floor that she has a socialist agenda.   

TODAY’S QUOTE:

"Guess what this liberal would be all about?   This liberal would be about socializing … uh, umm.   … Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies.” ~ Maxine Waters, lecturing oil company executives at a congressional hearing in 2008.
