\”PROGRESSIVE\” = Socialism (maybe lite in the progressive\’s mind, but not in the one being pillaged)As in \”progressive income tax\”!How much of a slave do you folks want to make me? The Bible says \”tithe\”. Obama says \”more\”; McCain says \”a little less than more\”.So, what do you all want to steal from your fellow taxpayers — 50%, 75%, 100%! Come on at least be truthful once in your lives.Repeat after me: \”Since I\’m smarter than you, and I know what\’s good for you, better than you know yourself, I will take it ALL and dole back to you what I think is fair.\”Come on, say it, you know you believe it. Now we know why you want to outlaw guns! The rabble might object.Arghhhh!
