Robin Hood should have been locked up with all the other criminals!

Transcript of Obama town hall meeting in Illinois 8/17/11 (just a few examples)

The President:


"And basically what they recommended was what I’ve been talking about, which is a balanced approach in which we’re making some modifications to what’s called discretionary spending...and how we raise additional revenue so that we bring the overall budget into a sustainable place."


"because they said, we’re not going to vote for anything that has revenue in it. "


"And I’ve been concerned that Speaker Boehner has already said that the folks he assigned, none of them can vote to increase revenues."


"So the bottom line is this:  I will be presenting, as I’ve already presented -- I did back earlier this year -- a plan that says we’re going to have spending cuts and we’re going to have revenue.  We’ll have more spending cuts than we have revenue, but we’re going to have to take a balanced approach and everything is going to be on the table"


"And so I think it’s also important to understand that we can raise the kind of revenues we’re talking about without having an impact on middle-class families who are already struggling and haven’t seen their wages and their incomes go up in over a decade now."


So okay, Mr. President, let's cut the crap already.  I'm sick and tired of you, the progressive left politicians and the main stream media talking about "raising revenue" for the government to help deal with the deficit and our budget gap.  Stop LYING to the American people and say what you really mean.  You want to "RAISE TAXES" on the American people in order to pay for the GROSS NEGLIGENCE of the governments outrageous spending (both Democrat and Republican) which has gotten us into this financial mess.

We are not idiots.  We know that the government CANNOT raise revenue and CANNOT create jobs.  It can only TAX the American people and REDISTRIBUTE THE WEALTH from that taxation to someone placed in a government position which is probably needless and redundant.  


In other words, the government and steal/take by force our hard earned money so that they can give it to someone else like Robin Hood and his merry men.  Well I have news for you.  Robin Hood was a thief and should have been locked up with all the rest of the criminals!  It's because of this "steal from the rich and give to the poor" bull crap that has glorified the idea of taxation and redistribution of wealth to begin with!

It's time for you politicians to come straight with the American People.  You want to TAX us so the you can spend and WASTE our money to your hearts content.  You and your merry band of crooked thieves want to steal from us hard working Americans, Business Owners and JOB CREATORS just so you can blow all our money like drunken sailors!  (And I apologize for insulting any drunken sailors out there.  You couldn't POSSIBLY be as bad as these thieves).


It's time to STAND UP and LET OUR VOICES BE HEARD!!


The time for government irresponsibility is OVER.  It's time for the American People to call and write our representatives and let them know that we will no longer approve the blank checks that they have been writing.  It's time to let them know that it is NOT ACCEPTABLE for them to spend more than they take in.  It is NOT ACCEPTABLE for them to NOT have a balanced budget.  It is time to let them know that it is time for us to pass a BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT to the Constitution and it HAS TO HAVE A SPENDING CAP!  That is crucial because without a spending cap the government could still spend whatever they wanted and then use the amendment  as an excuse to RAISE TAXES in order to balance the budget.  And THAT would be unacceptable!


It's time to kick Robin Hood out of the forest.  It's time for our elected officials to get their sh** together or get the hell out.  It's time for Responsible Americans to find those delinquent representatives and run for their public offices and kick them out if they refuse to change.
