And the Congress will push me to raise taxes, and I’ll say no, and they’ll push, and I’ll say no, and they’ll push again. And I’ll say to them: Read my lips. No new taxes. – George H. W. Bush
Yep, that worked out so well!Sometimes I wonder if the first Bush didn't deliberately screw up in order NOT to be reelected. Coming out of the first Gulf War his popularity was close to off the charts, by the time the elections were held, Slick Willie cleaned his clock. Somebody explain that one to me.
Hi Mike ~ I am back from my blogging break and just wanted to say hi. I don't know what to say about any politics – I find it all confusing, disheartening and scary. Take care.
Taxes are a necessity but we need to always evaluate the spending and make sure it's productive and not wasteful of our hard earned money. Thanks for reminding us of that quote.
Welcome to my blog. I post things that I feel must be said. I will post Prayer Requests when I find them. I will try to do my best to be a good blogger and will try to not step on too many toes. May God bless all that visit with me. THE BLOG IS THE SAME ONLY THE NAME WAS CHANGED, TO PROTECT THE SILLINESS! (With a Nod To Dragnet)
That's not working now. There will be more and more taxes with this administration. There always is. Sigh.Have a great day pal. Big hug. 🙂
