As usual, Ann Coulter nails it.
Pretend to Be All That You Can Be.
True, all Democrats in the military are not phony soldiers, but all phony soldiers seem to be Democrats.
Airplane passengers watch nervously as two men wearing pilots’ uniforms and dark glasses use canes to feel their way into the cockpit. The plane starts barreling down the runway, and the passengers begin to get scared as the water at the end of the airstrip nears. With only a few yards left, everyone screams, but the plane lifts off just in time. The passengers think it was all a joke, while in the cockpit, the pilots high-five.
“You know,” says one pilot to the other, “one day they’re gonna scream too late, and we’re all gonna die.”
One quick question… If your blind and your reading this, how many fingers am I holding up?
Judge allows class action against Target website.
A federal judge in California certified a class action lawsuit against Target Corp (TGT.N) brought by plaintiffs claiming the discount retailer’s website is inaccessible to the blind, according to court documents.
Judge Marilyn Patel of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California also rejected Target’s motion for summary judgment in the case, according to the ruling filed October 2.
According to the ruling, plaintiffs — including the National Federation of the Blind — claim Target.com violates federal and state laws prohibiting discrimination against the disabled.
Will somebody tell these traitors that the taxes we pay already fund the War? There is no need for a war tax. This is surrender politics at it’s finest.
Our troops are winning against terrorists. The real enemy is right here at home.
Democrats Propose Tax Surcharge for War.
Three top House Democrats are proposing a “war surtax” to fund the Iraq war.
“If the president really is concerned about stopping red ink, we are prepared to introduce legislation which will provide for a war surtax for that portion of military costs that are related to our military actions in Iraq,” Rep. David Obey, the Wisconsin Democrat who chairs the House Appropriations Committee, says, according to Reuters.
The Politico reports members of the Democratic leadership say they’ll oppose any spending bills that don’t include a plan to end the 4-year-old conflict. Under the surtax proposal, taxpayers would pay extra taxes — ranging from 2% to 15% based on income — designed to raise $140 billion a year for the war effort.
“If you don’t like the cost, then shut down the war,” Obey just told reporters on Capitol Hill. He was joined by Reps. John Murtha of Pennsylvania and James McGovern of Massachusetts.
Update at 2:29 p.m. ET: White House spokeswoman Dana Perino dismissed the surtax proposal.
“We’ve always known that Democrats seem to revert to type and they are willing to raise taxes on just about anything,” she says. “There’s no need to increase taxes. The president has shown how if we prioritize and if we get the spending bills done in a clean way, we can actually have a surplus in our budget by 2012. We don’t see any need to raise the taxes.”
