I'd say something but Hotair already covered it. http://hotair.com/archives/2010/04/15/obama-mocks-tea-partiers-you-should-be-thanking-me-for-cutting-taxes/
Lets see. For starters, hes lying: He has raised some taxes, contrary to his campaign pledge two years ago. But more than that, he seems almost to be laughing at people for being concerned about deficits. Did we or did we not learn just last night that a majority of tea partiers think their taxes are fair? Theyre not some fanatic zero tax movement, in other words. Theyre willing to pay what theyre paying now; what they want is a government small enough to make ends meet with what theyre paying. By The Ones logic, if he lowered the top marginal income tax bracket to one percent, we should expect tea partiers to fall on their knees and shout hallelujah even though it would mean annual deficits many times the trillion-dollar leviathans were currently saddled with. Anyone think that would happen? Anyone except Obama not yet grasp that conservatives want fiscal responsibility, not lower taxes at any and all costs? Whats most amazing about this is that everyone understands the feds will need to raise taxes, and soon, to try to put a dent in our Everest of liabilities. That was the entire point of Paul Volcker, Obamas own advisor, whispering about a VAT a few weeks ago. Tax hikes are simply a fait accompli, due in no small part to The Ones own unprecedented spending, and wed probably have them already if not for his political cowardice in refusing to demand them before his reelection bid. And yet here he is, actually patting himself on the back for being a tax-cutter. Unbelievable.
