We were just KIDDING about all that Commerce Clause stuff!

Commerce Clause? Nah, we was just funnin'. It was a tax increase all along. Surprise!

Remember, Candidate Obama promised that NO ONE with an income below $250k would get a tax increase.

Now.... EVERYONE IN THE U.S. is getting a significant tax increase, based on an entirely new tax. New York Times Story. And CATO analysis. And Randy Barnett analysis.

Wow. Also yikes.

This is adorable. I'm so happy I live in this new era of transparency. The administration is not openly admitting that they meant all along, but had to call it something else to get it passed? Fantastic.

The worst part is, when the Republicans run Palin I'll be forced to vote for this guy. It's really like being asked if you'd rather someone kick you in the parts with their left or right foot.
