  • Oblamatrons run a risk

    Of being smeared with the label of people who utterly refuse to ever lower taxes on anyone anywhere at anytime. That is not politically wise.

    We can all understand the populist ire at tax cuts for the wealthy but this token effort aimed at the middle class, is just that. Once Oblamatrons dig their heels and decide this small tax cut is also ideologically evil, well, you can see where this leads. You wind up as a caricature of the tax and spend liberal the right always smears you with.
