<<LOL....only to the hardcore left is acknowledging that they do indeed pay more, but its still not their "fair share". Pretty scary world to consider where the government gets to dictate how much you're allowed to earn, if its not deemed "fair">>
I wasn't fixated on "fair," which I only mentioned in passing. As I said (or tried to) the real issue is how much they CAN pay. There's nothing scary about the government dictating how much of my earnings I get to keep, that's par for the course in just about any government on earth that levies taxes of any kind. "Scary" is a government that can have its citizens blown to bits without due process of law, merely on the basis of some hidden document signed by some anonymous bureaucrat, in blatant defiance of that country's own constitution.
<<Cain's looking better and better everyday, if this is the stance the left wants Obama to really hang his hat on>>
"The left" as far as I'm concerned wants Obama to be sitting in the same jail as GW Bush, waiting to be put on trial for their lives on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity. In the meantime, and back in the real world, I don't give a shit what happens to Obama, win or lose. If he has to lose to Herman Cain, so be it. Whatever else Cain may be at this point in time, he's not a war criminal and he's not a common murderer. Unfortunately, can't say as much for Obama or for his predecessor in office.
