Reed breaks no tax pledge

Corning Republican Congressman Tom Reed was apparently just kidding when he signed a pledge to oppose any new taxes. The George Costanza lookalike now says he is open to the idea if it will help raise "revenue".

Remember, as we've said before, the word revenue is political speak for "we're going to reach deep into your wallets." Don't be fooled by Reed saying the tax hike is only going to be for the wealthy, either. Career politicians like Reed are like meth addicts when it comes to stealing our money. If clowns like this are serious about solving the national debt, how about coming after all the government waste taking place as we speak?Don't blame me. I voted for William Hung.
