HopsGuy Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 While this is a good example of comedic style (nice building of the A or B set up with a C punch-line), it's definitely an "Oldie". Yup, I'm that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweet baboo Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I'm afraid of higher taxes and more nanny state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drnykterstein Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 What is a nanny state? Also.. uhmm if you got a higher income... would the higher taxes be a problem? Not that Barack will raise your taxes at all. He's only going to raise taxes for people who make over 200K/year. People below that might even get lower taxes.
