And apparently, it's full of magic talismans that will cause otherwise normal people to become blood-thirsty killing machines.
PSH-filled story is here.

The best rant seen on the Intertubz today
Over at The Whited Sepulcher, in the midst of shooting fish in a barrel fisking a Bill Clinton speech, our man cuts loose with:
The top 50% of the earners pay 97% of the taxes. If taxes are going to be cut significantly, if we're going to get more money out into the productive economy, if we're going to stop politicians from giving your money to their friends, contractors, military suppliers, drug warriors, hangers-on, deadbeats, regulators, worry-warts, global warmists, human barnacles, bureaucrats, slot-fillers, inspectors, teachers who can't teach, African Genital Washers, border guards, obesity police and ethanol subsidizers, then the tax cuts are going to have to go to the people in the top income levels. It really is that simple.
Do go and read the whole thing. It's all equally good.

I have to bend over how far?
Debate on the question "Is an expired tax cut the same as a tax increase?" aside, I found this nifty little calculator that will tell you just how much extra you'll have to cough up to Uncle Sugar if the "Bush Tax Cuts" are allowed to expire. Read it and weep.
Now, as a real world example, allow me to explain just how higher taxes kill jobs. Because of asthma, Mrs. Freeholder can't help clean the house or be in the house while it's cleaned. At least, not if I don't want to take her to the emergency room after we finish. So, for many years, I have employed a nice lady and her daughter to clean our house. They do an excellent job and I love them both to death.
In order to make up the money that I will lose to the Feral Government in taxes, she and her daughter will lose that job. I have no choice; it's the last bill I can jetison that will raise that much cash.
Folks, this isn't rocket science. You don't need a degree from Harvard or Yale to figure this stuff out. Whether intentionally or from stupidity, those in control in Washington are going to drive this country into the ground if we don't bodily toss them out. The election is November 2. Get out there and do your part to save a job or two.
