Say Goodbye to the Middle Class

Yes, Our Commander in Chimp and His Ridiculous Krewe (yes, I'm listening to Nawlins jazz as I write this) have seen to it to push their 70 BILLION DOLLAR TAX CUT PERMANENTLY. Isn't that sweet? Here's the reaction from Chuck Schumer from CNN.com.

The Bush administration and the Republican leadership are far more interested in helping their wealthiest friends than hardworking, middle-class Americans," said Charles Schumer, D-N.Y. "The GOP made its choice, and they chose millionaire investors and oil companies over middle class families."

Ya got that right, Chuckie! And what will Albany do with this? If Spitzer doesn't win, that is. Suozzi's already thinking of adding a fine to the LIE. Like tolls aren't high enough? Nice. Does anyone really expect someone trying to survive on a WalMart salary and actually KNOW what the AMT tax is? Are you shitting me?

Naturally, oil companies will be eating this up, and use more and more of their profits to cushion their CEOs while the rest of us scream at the pumps while paying $7 for a gallon of gas. It's almost $4 now, and barrels of crude have hit $72, $7 is a REAL possibility. Not like I have a car, but surcharges are gonna be biting me in the ass like starving mosquitoes for the pizza delivery, the Circles delivery (I still love my Czarina Sauce dish), the flower delivery, etc etc etc...

ANYTHING THAT BENEFITS THESE ASSHOLE OIL COMPANIES WILL NOT BE PASSED ONTO US, KIDDIES.

So, for those of you that have friends that voted for Dubya, feel free to lean over--after you've polished your brass knuckles, of course--and THWACK them right in the head. They deserve it.

2 1/2 more years to go...will we make it under this administration? Those of us that don't see 100K a year, that is...

I think I need to lie down.

Face down.

And sob.
