As I've said before, Obama is Bush III.

What makes all this even funnier, is Obama's tax really doesn't do a whole lot - it creates what is basically a flat minimum tax rate on the rich, so they at least pay the same as the middle class - but of course Conservatives are still outraged.

HOW DARE WE TAX THE RICH AND POOR THE SAME?! THE RICH SHOULD PAY LESS!

I think you will find that both sides of the aisle are pissed over this one. It is an obvious political cookie. Once again the appearance is being held above the results...............
