OBAMA THE TAX MAN

You REALLY have to hand it to the Liberals when it comes to taxing the taxes of the taxes for the sake of taxing, which them of course, ends up being pissed away on entitlement programs or other scams that keep the votes coming in.

EXCERPT: "President Obama’s Agriculture Department today announced that it will impose a new 15-cent charge on all fresh Christmas trees—the Christmas Tree Tax—to support a new Federal program to improve the image and marketing of Christmas trees."

Now until the Progressives almost destroyed Christmas, by killing Nativity scenes, calling it the Holiday Season vice the Christmas Season, turning loose the ACLU to attack anything even vaguely religious, and turning it into a shopping spree vice a time to celebrate, horror of horrors, the birth of Christ, Americans did not NEED the government to teach them about "the image" of Christmas trees and what they, and the season itself means. Even funnier is that the Muslim in the WH thinks he needs to educate about something he is clueless about. What a steaming turd the Left annoited.

In other words, this is pure 100% unadulterated liberal bullsh*t and just another tax and spend venture.

Now make sure that you are NOT drinking coffee AND you are sitting down when you read this laugh of the day...

Acting Administrator Shipman stated that it is: "not a tax nor does it yield revenue for the Federal government."

THIS is what passes for leadership in our government? They collect a "fee" of 15 cents PER TREE, paid out by the sellers ("whether they want to or not,"), with the revenue going to the "Board appointed by the Secretary of Agriculture." The board will then run a "program of promotion, research, evaluation, and information designed to strengthen the Christmas tree industry’s position in the marketplace; maintain and expend existing markets for Christmas trees; and to carry out programs, plans, and projects designed to provide maximum benefits to the Christmas tree industry."

This is just another scam by the Left, to divert money from one point to another, and then back into the coffers of the DNC, just like union dues and the slush funds of Fannie and Freddie do. Fannie, by-the-way, just lost ANOTHER 7.8 BILLION and is asking for more. WELL DONE Frank and Dodd (who BOTH should be in prison), preventing any reforms under Bush 43, so you can continue to milk that cash cow.

Funny how this happens RIGHT before an election year and heading into the Christmas season.

Let me tell you how it will be;
There's a fifteen cent tax for your tree.
'Cause I’m Obamaaaaa
Yeahhhh, I am The Won

Should fifteen cents appear too small,
Be thankful I don't take it all.
'Cause I’m Obamaaaaa
Yeahhhh, I am The Won

  1. Amazing isn't it? This crowd has no shame whatsoever. I'd love to shove the Mao ornament up someone's ass that dreamt this scheme up.

    I wonder if they will put a 15 cent a pound tax on goat meat.

  2. What bullshit! Now we have "Christmas trees?"
    I thought we weren't allowed to even say "Merry Christmas. Loons.

  3. Yep.
    "Just another scam by the left."
    You got it. And the insulting part is the left believes Americans are so stupid they'll go for it.
    "..We have to pass ths bill to ..uh..see what's in it..."
    They actually believe we'll go for it. Again.

  5. Gunny, I fear that this "tax" will be used to further undermine, or should I say re-educate, the sheeple and remove any traces of our Christian heritage that is associated with this holiday. We celebrate the birth of the Baby Jesus and that is not acceptable to the "left". Keep the spirit of Christmas alive! God Bless the United States of America...

  7. Friend of mine has a Christmas tree farm here in Georgia and when I showed him the article, he about busted a vessel. He's already notified all of his fellow sellers and they are all up in arms. Funny how it's supposed to "help" their industry, but they don't want a thing to do with it.

  9. Pepp,

    Yep, the loony left is willing to allow us to say "Christmas" as long as we pay our Jizya tax like good little dhimmis.

  12. clyde,

    I am GLAD that Ohioans screwed themselves over, they are deciding their own fate, as State's rights SHOULD work BUT, that said, F EM if they come calling for a bailout.

    NO STATE should EVER get a BAILOUT.

  13. Rayvet,

    Well done passing the word. Of COURSE the industry doesn't want or need it, that is how the Dems work. THEY want to impose it ON YOU and just do it.

  14. This IS NOT a tax on Christmas trees. It's a tax on the Christian religion plain and simple.

    The Christmas tree is the 2nd most recognized symbol of the Christian religion next to Christ on the cross.
    No other religion buys Christmas trees period.

    Dhimmitude? It certainly looks like it and, since Obama (who isn't a muslim but, can quote the koran for any occasion without a teleprompter and, celebrates it's holidays)
    sees the need to improve the marketing image of guys who set up shop in parking lots and wheel and deal in trees and twine?

    Where are the leftists on this issue? Certainly the idea of the government trying to improve Christmas's image would go against their athiest views right?

    How about a mosque tax?
    Islam could certainly use an image makeover before the marketing of trees ever would!

    What this scheme from the Obama administration is, is nothing short of a smoke and mirror loophole in order to discriminate against an entire religion and the people who celebrate it.

  15. Sepp,

    As I posted to Pepp, it is our Jizya tax. I have no doubt that Zero is a Muslim. Bowing to King Faud proved it.

  16. King Fraud bows to King Faud is how I saw it.

  17. I read a story on CNS that says the big tree farmers asked for this as their industry's bailout.

  18. Why don't they make the Muslims pay extra tax for the cost of the war on terror, surveillance etc? Why are they constantly poking Christians in the eye? It's just more enforcement of the jizya by Imam Obama.
