The Speech…. Bill… Outline….. Thingy.

Let’s get this straight… this is not a “jobs” bill! This is just a way to try and get his beloved $250,000 tax hike passed.

It’s weird, on the one hand, he goes on and on about taxing millionaires and billionaire so they can pay their fair share. It’s fine class warfare rhetoric. If he put together a package that did that, and only that, where the tax rate increase STARTED at one million, I think he could get enough votes from Republicans in competitive districts to get it passed. I’m sure of it! But he just can’t let go of that $250,000 figure….

Why?????   It doesn’t make sense.

By proposing that over and over and over and over again, and failing every time, he just paints himself into ever deepening corner. It’s not hard for Republicans to point out that people who make $250,000 a year are not millionaires by any stretch of the imagination! I thought this guy was supposed to be smart and reasonable… You know… The adult in the room!
