American Taliban: Newt Gingrich

"Newt Gingrich is running and just came out with his new book: 'The Adultery of Hope.'" –Jay Leno

As the late-night talk shows have stated over the past few days, the Republican Party American Taliban have no clear person in mind for the Taliban nominee for presidential contender to compete against President Obama in 2012. As you can imagine, the current crop of fools have been supplying much material to comedians from all over the globe, including even the news shows on cable. With the Newt entering the race, talk shows everywhere have been having a field day with his off the cuff remarks about Medicare and his comment calling Rep. Ryan’s budget plan “ radical.”  Mr. Gingrich has been catching hell from the GOP for his comments on Meet The Press. Even the American Taliban leadership have been on his ass for criticizing  his own party. The GOP, like the Communist Party, does like dissent.

The Gingrich Economic Plans…

   …are nothing new from this Republican American Taliban member that have not already been tried and proven to have failed. You know the pitch: less taxes, permanent placement of the Bush/Obama tax cuts which will expire ( hopefully ) in 2012, and so forth.

  Newt also has a plan that will make the United States the most desirable place in the world for new business investment. Guess what the ideas entail?

 … a bold series of tax cuts, including: Eliminating the capital gains tax to make American entrepreneurs more competitive against those in other countries; Dramatically reducing the corporate income tax (the highest in the world) to 12.5%; Allowing for 100% expensing of new equipment to spur innovation and American manufacturing; Ending the death tax permanently.

     A corporate income tax rate of 12.5%? Give me a break! The majority of businesses in America already pay little or no tax. What does another tax break do for a business that already pays zero?

But wait! There’s more!

Move toward an optional flat tax of 15% that would allow Americans the freedom to choose to file their taxes on a postcard, saving hundreds of billions in unnecessary costs each year.

  Yes, and most of that lost revenue would be made up in a vast assortment of fees because the public hasn’t figured out that those fees are taxes in a different form. You are more than likely paying more in fees that you are in regular taxes.

  The Newt has many more ideas to help big business while putting the major burdens on the average Joe.
