Unhappy Hey! Taxes are Voluntary: Harry Reid

I want everyone to see the Dem. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid say Federal Income Taxes are voluntary; but it depends on what the meaning of is, is.

YouTube - Paying income tax in America is Voluntary

Is this the leadership we want? Are we all just dopes now?

Let's "hope" that at least 10% of the 55% voting fools in this country gain some wisdom by Nov. 2010. I guess we also need to "hope" that ACCORN doesn't steal the margin.

SCK5, Buddy, you must have lots to say about this.

Maybe some of you other Libs want to jump in and defend your more sophisticated, nuanced and enlightened leader.

Hold it; maybe you should wait until you get your talking points from ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, National Public Radio, NY Times, Time Mag, etc, etc, etc.

Lets hope so. But I am not holding my breath.

With jerks like Hary Reid, Nancy Pelosi and clowns like Barney Frank and Chris Dodd we are in a big mess.

Maxine Waters is a real winner.

What he is saying is that some countries in Europe take out all the taxes direct from your paycheck and that is involuntary. Here in USA, you have to file a return, that's voluntary, you have to pay the tax owed, that's voluntary and you can 'choose' to go to jail if you don't voluntarily pay your taxes. Democrats are the party of choice. You can choose to pay your taxes or YOU can choose to go to jail. That is what he is saying.

X,

You're right. I missed it. I thought it was double-talk. Now I see; it is a choice and therefore voluntary.

Sometimes I just don't get the joke.

Well... Nancy Pelosi... I did get that one.

Where is Sck, I miss him too.

Reid is aggressively stupid, and conceited. That's a tough combination.

If you notice the question asked by the interviewer (taking peoples money to pay welfare) was never answered by Harry Reid. He changed the subject to Voluntary taxes instead.
