* Tea party protest war tax?

Anyone who did not question the Bush Administration's rush for wars should have NO problem being asked to pay more taxes to PAY FOR their bloody adventures. Let's see how the tea party protestors react with a proposed tax increase to pay for the endless wars. 


In his interview with Bloomberg TV's Political Capital with Al Hunt," Carl Levin, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, proposed an additional income tax to the upper brackets to help pay for additional troops sent to Afghanistan.(1)


Close allies of President Obama have proposed a new war surtax for ALL Americans...and the writer of this article agrees with me..that this tax will help "to foot the bill for the cost of protecting opium fields in Afghanistan, paying off drug lords, and bribing the Taliban."(2)
