NH-02: When Can We Expect Newt?

by: Dean Barker

Tue Dec 08, 2009 at 18:43:12 PM EST


If Charlie Bass is going to dip into the discredited ideologues of the past to try to outflank Jennifer Horn and the Tea People on the right, does that mean that we should be expecting a visit from Newt Gingirch sometime soon?

And if this is in fact the new strategy, will he have to find another outlet besides the WSJ to revive the Death Tax meme he loves so well?

It's a basic tenet of free market Republican ideology that (4.00 / 1)
to tax something is to discourage it.

A capital gains tax means less investment. A sales tax means fewer sales. A tax on business profits means fewer businesses.

So what's wrong with a Death Tax?


When can we expect Newt? Pretty damn soon. . . . (4.00 / 1)
After all, Charlie once referred to Newt as the "greatest speaker of the twentieth century."


LOL. (0.00 / 0)
I knew you would have the perfect comment follow-up to this post from Bass' history, DD.
