Tom Delay Puts George W Bush on Notice....
There will be no "tax increases". Asked about Bush's comments that everything is on the table, including increasing the top limit for paying FICA taxes, Delay said, paraphrasing, "we were not sent up here to raise taxes". So if that is off the table, what is left?

3. You know it's gotten bad when...
.. you can't even know what to believe in our government anymore. But I sure as hell wouldn't beleive anything that comes out of this pompous jerk's mouth, that's for sure.

What he says: "No New Taxes"

What he means: "No new taxes except for those bastards in the middle and working classes, that is. They'll be taxed so far up the butt it won't even be funny. I mean, hey, we can't expect the corporations to help, can we?"

4. That amount has gone up almost every year for the last 12 years.
No one has noticed except those making $90,000 or more. And corporations. This is the tax that's not mentioned. Amazing anyone has mentioned it now.

5. Pssst...Bush was lying!
Hate to break it to you, but he doesn't actually mean everything he says.

I know, I know...not very presidential. What can I say?

I didn't vote for him either.
