Little Hawk ... I've got nothing against Huckabee, and I like his idea about getting rid of the IRS (as I have mentioned, more than once here on the Cat). The problem with Huckabee is that many people fear the idea of having an ordained minister as a president ... what's there to fear, there have been generals, lawyers, actors, clowns, oilmen and even a haberdasher as president .... so why not try out a Christian minister. What's there to lose i ask ??

Now back to taxes ... getting rid of income tax is just too revolutionary a thought to a lot of folks, so that certainly isn't going to work ... plus it's one hell of a cash cow for the Feds ... as Ebbie says "But economists say the military alone would take 34% of it, leaving a minus for all the others." ... christ, with the military raping that percentage of the taxes it's wonder the Feds arent' taking more out of your paycheck. The rest of the tax percentage is just squandered on other junk, not much left over for social causes. Hey, there's a good question to these candidates ... "would you think of significantly cutting back on military spending ??'

That's my 2 cents worth ... not much more to spend ... payday on Friday and what little change I have left over after taxes I can rant some more here regarding income tax.
