Oh, wait, as long as they aren't part of those people?

Yeah.

Except all the people in question have in fact payed more on their taxes then they would have normally. You're ability to miss the threads point entirely is once again and as always stunning sir!

@Shuma: Strange, I thought this thread was about Dems not paying their taxes.

I guess that's what happens when your POV is from the other side of the aisle.

Actually its about the late payment of taxes. Missed things. That stuff. Your post was talking all about tax amounts, of which they payed more than normal.

As for my side of the aisle, it's the good side. We have branston pickle and all the good foods. You're side of the aisle is just full of mens workout mags and doritoes.

Shuma, of course a person can advocate a political position while not practicing itself. That's how we can have draft dodgers send people into combat, pill poppers enforce drug laws, adulterers and other sexual deviants campaign aggressively to "protect" marriage, and generation after generation of politicians that want nothing more than the power and money that their position can bring them try to convince us that they're not about "business as usual."

Don't make the rookie mistake of thinking that every post is a serious advancement of a position. Sometimes posts are just there to provoke a reaction.

@Shuma: If that is what you took away from my post, you are sorely mistaken as to my point.

My point is very, very simple:

"Our" elected Democrat "leaders" are hypocritical scum, one and all - worse than what we had in office before.

Oh, no I fully understood what you were saying. I troll trolls. We've been over this in the past. It's my thing. I get you to say silly and ridiculous stuff by playing your devils advocate and basically get you to throw yourself out of the debate/argument.

Dear god, that was nearly a perfect storm.

Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.

Wow, this thread went from feisty to fun and back to feisty again.

Meanwhile, I have no idea how JohnHwangDD is comparing this government with the last. The previous government engineered a campaign of lies to get a war that killed a million people, abducted people and flew them to places around the world to be tortured, they publically admitted to torturing others, they engaged in mass illegal wire taps...

And he's comparing it to three nominees with late payments on their taxes, and declaring the latter the worse.

It's simply ridiculous.

“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”

If it would make you feel better I could post some links to the works of Victor Davis Hanson, Thomas Sowell, or Charles Krauthammer. They're all much, much worse than John.
