if romney had said, 47% of americans pay no income tax, and left it at that, it wouldn’t be obnoxious. if he argued for policies to make more americansearn enough to pay taxes, it might even be mildly inspiring…
When romney says 47% of americans see themselves as victims just looking for a handout, then he qualifies as douchiest politican of the last 100 years. except for hitler.
i figured we were going to get to hitler eventually so i thought i’d just cut to the chase.
it is pretty hilarious that he omitted his charitable deductions to keep his tax rate above 13%. I mean, jeepers, he pays so little tax himself that he has to basically forego deductions to pay what he beleives will look like a non-repulsive tax rate. and then he has the gall to call half the rest of the nation a bunch of freeloading dirtbags who have no interest in helping themselves.
