    Millions of people have stated openly that they voted for Obama because he is black, to help usher in a post racial era... sort of. It's been all over the news, nothing secret about it, many friends of mine admit to it openly. There's a kernel of goodness in it, but it was badly misdirected and abused by liberal leaders imo.

    On the other hand, the practice of liberals to call anyone they disagree with a racist is very troubling, not that conservatives believe that, or care about insults thrown across the isle, but because this despicable practice weakens the word "racist" and downgrades it from a serious concern and threat to society, to an everyday term use so frequently that it's losing its real meaning and power.

    That sign is funny, tha... that's all folks :)

    Do you really think that the esence of this joke is whether Trump really said it?

    Then why the attribution? You certainly seem to be a bundle of contradictions.

  8. Of course not. Even the 16000 IRS agents is nonsense.

    Q: Will the IRS hire 16,500 new agents to enforce the health care law?

    A: No. The law requires the IRS mostly to hand out tax credits, not collect penalties. The claim of 16,500 new agents stems from a partisan analysis based on guesswork and false assumptions, and compounded by outright misrepresentation.

  9. I have to say, after listening to Obama work over Trump at the Correspondent's dinner, I really don't blame Trump if he made this stuff up to get even.

    16,500 more IRS agents needed to enforce ObamaCare

    According to the Washington Examiner, the health care law’s full implementation will result in the IRS employing approximately 16,500 new agents in order to enforce the new rules. This would be the largest expansion of the IRS since World War II.

    According to a release from Rep. Kevin Brady, R-Texas:

    A new analysis by the Joint Economic Committee and the House Ways & Means Committee minority staff estimates up to 16,500 new IRS personnel will be needed to collect, examine and audit new tax information mandated on families and small businesses in the ‘reconciliation’ bill being taken up by the U.S. House of Representatives this weekend. …

    Scores of new federal mandates and fifteen different tax increases totaling $400 billion are imposed under the Democratic House bill. In addition to more complicated tax returns, families and small businesses will be forced to reveal further tax information to the IRS, provide proof of ‘government approved’ health care and submit detailed sales information to comply with new excise taxes.


    Is this to be expected?
