Some things never change! Democrats and their mania for raising taxes, just to name one.
Return with me to good old 1984. Walter Mondale, Jimmy Carter’s vice president, has just received the Democrat presidential nomination, and the crowd on the floor is gleefully celebrating.
First he said, “Mr. Reagan will raise taxes, and so will I. He won’t tell you. I just did.”
The crowd continued to whoop it up. And in an aside that was later to become, er, famous, Mondale remarked, “Look at ’em. We’re going to tax their ass off.” ( http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/781144/posts ).
That’s what never changes.
That’s why our national debt exceeds $18 trillion.
Will we ever, ever, ever learn?
