You [Obama] favor eliminating the cap on earnings subject to the 12.4 percent Social Security tax, which now covers only the first $102,000. A Chicago police officer married to a Chicago public-school teacher, each with 20 years on the job, have a household income of $147,501, so you would take another $5,642 from them. Are they undertaxed? Are they rich?
Doesn't George know that social security is not paid jointly?
Just had this one floated by the FiL at breakfast a couple of weeks ago. I told him that SS isn't paid jointly and he, of course citing "authority," said that his accountant told him so and so. We had to remind him that his wife is his accountant and, upon asking her after she finished her mimosa, she told him that it's paid separately. Google around. It's a Norquistian talking point. The truth has a liberal bias.

It makes you wonder how much of that other stuff in his column is made up Republican talking point propaganda. At any rate, it's just a preview of what's coming.
People are being all merciful about Rich's poll tax screed, but I heard the same damn thing from my father-in-law weeks ago. He subscribes to all of the 'nutter email lists. They are getting ready to crank up the noise machine as soon as the Democratic nominee is known (Obama or Clinton).
If Obama wins the presidency there is going to be lots of GOOOPERS screaming into their pillows.

George Will, one of the inner circle of the Beltway pundits, whose assumed wisdom knows no limits, has been wearing that stupid bow tie way too tight for too many years.
It's affected the blood flow to his brain.
And Tucker Carlson wants to be just like him.
When will we ever get rid of these beltway elitist corporate media hacks??
He's the male equivalent of Cokie Roberts.
Perhaps he should have stuck to baseball reporting?
