Get ready for tax hikes:
“If we want an economy that’s going to grow in the future, people have to understand we have to bring those deficits down. And it’s going to be difficult, hard for us to do. … We’re not at the point yet where we’re going to make a judgment about what it’s going to take.” –Treasury Secretary Timothy Tax Cheatin’ Geithner when asked if taxes could be raised on the middle class
Tax hikes II:
“[I]t is never a good idea to absolutely rule things out, no matter what.” –White House National Economic Council Director Larry Summers on tax increases for the middle class
White House “clarification”:
“The president’s clear commitment is not to raise taxes on those making less than $250,000 a year.” –White House press secretary Robert Gibbs
A lady and a scholar:
“F–king redneck douchebaggery. Unmitigated douchebaggery. Why are they holding signs that say, ‘Whatchoo talking about, Willis?’ These people are called ‘racially sensitive’, what they should be called is racist, backward motherf–kers.” –actress and “comedian” Janeane Garofalo on Tea Party protestors
