Phil Roe's Truthiness Woes Pt. 10
Hi, all. I give you the most lie-filled communication from the desk of Congressman Phil Roe to date. Enjoy…
“Tax Deal Could Help Small Businesses Create Jobs”
This week, President Obama and Republican negotiators announced a deal that will extend all of the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts for two years while also extending unemployment benefits for 13 months, preventing the estate tax from being fully reinstated and cutting payroll taxes for a year. As I’ve been saying all year, no American should face a tax increase in this economic environment. Our top priority must be preventing a tax hike on any American.
What Rep. Roe fails to mention in his first paragraph is that he and his party (Teabagger/Republifuck) held the unemployed, working American’s benefits hostage, threatening any and all legislation, unless the super-rich Pig-Fucks they serve got their undeserved tax break.
Cutting payroll taxes is the single dumbest thing that could have happened. Payroll Taxes are how we fund Social Security. As we all know, Rep. Roe and his fellow Republifucks hate extending benefits to the elderly. Now, they have found a way to cut SS which is Rep. Roe’s intention. Republicans know that the Payroll Tax cuts will cut SS by one third this very year. They will then whine “Tax Hike” if anyone tries to save SS from this cruel fate.
These Wall Street scumbags want SS privatized. That’s what Phil Roe wants…Your money in Wall Street’s hands.
MORE LIES:
Since I came to Congress, my main focus has been on creating jobs and getting people in East Tennessee back to work. The threat of these job-killing tax hikes is the single greatest cause for concern among both working families and employers, who might have to shed jobs with increased costs.
Phil Roe has not created even one job in this state though he’s now in his second term as TN-1 Rep. Not one job. I challenge anyone to prove otherwise including Roe himself.
These tax cuts will not save jobs as Phil Roe lies about. Tax breaks for the rich are the very least effective manner of creating jobs. They will not help the economy.
The CBO (Congressional Budget Office) has determined that extending the Bush Tax Cuts would lower unemployment no more than 0.1% to 0.3% over the next year. The cost of the tax extension will be $900 billion over the next five years.
Fiscally responsible? Dr. Roe is a liar’s liar. No fiscally responsible person would condone such wasteful, irrational spending.
EVEN MORE LIES:
This deal will help small businesses create jobs. When Republicans take control of Congress January 1st, our first priority must be to stop the job-killing spending binge in Washington, and provide certainty for private-sector job creators by permanently eliminating the threat of tax hikes, as promised in the Pledge to America.
“Spending binge"? This dipshit has the nerve to accuse “Washington” of a spending binge while he tries to convince us that adding 900 Billion to the deficit is ok? Evidently Roe sees the recipients of his mail-outs as idiots. If they believe this bullshit, I guess that’s one thing he’s right about.
This “deal” will NOT help small business create jobs. This is where Roe does a first class face-plant. I am small business, Roe. captainkona owns a “small business". There is nothing in this “deal” that motivates me to hire and I’m not the only one.
This is an outright LIE on behalf of Congressman Roe.
AND IT DOESN’T STOP THERE:
Additionally, there is an Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) patch to ensure that an additional 21 million households will not be hit with a stealth tax increase. While permanent repeal without offsetting is the best option, I am pleased something will be done to protect taxpayers immediately, even if it is just a temporary solution.
Bullshit in the first degree.
For 1 in every three workers this “deal” is a tax increase.
50 million working Americans, including all workers making less than $20,000 per year and millions of federal, state, and city workers will pay more in taxes than they have been.
This is a “deal” alright, a raw one for the hardest working poverty-line Americans.
Another despicable Phil Roe lie.

LIKE THE SANDS OF THE DESERT, SO ARE THE LIES OF PHIL ROE:
Included in the framework is estate tax relief, providing a $5 million exemption and a top rate of 35% for 2011 and 2012. This is especially important for family farms because this provision will prevent the estate tax from snapping back to a $1 million exemption and 55% top rate.
Double Dip welfare for the wealthy.
A tax cut for the richest 2%, which will drive the deficit up 700 Billion by it’s self. Then, spoiled little rich brat tax break called “estate tax breaks".
This benefits smarmy little never-worked, never-served punks who have it all given to them but they don’t have to pay their fair share like the working, self-made American does.
It’s spoiled brat welfare, nothing less. This country needs all of us to contribute to stay strong. There is no strength in taxing those who make the least and giving welfare to those who inherit the most. This country has serious problems and people like Congressman Roe and his like-minded dimwits are the root of them.
The Republican Congressional Representative from Tennessee District 1, David Phil Roe is a liar. He’s not mistaken, he did not mis-speak. He is a liar and I will debate him in public anytime he thinks he’s man enough to accept the challenge.
A liar, and I can prove it over and over and over again.
