Smoking Harry Reid

“I’m very happy that we’re paying for this”

– Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) talks about the plan to raise cigarette taxes from 30 cents per pack to $1 per pack to pay for children’s health insurance coverage.

“The health of the children is extremely important”

– Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) talks about the importance of children’s health at the expense of all the poor people the Democrats are supposed to be representing.

“In the long run, maybe it’ll stop people from smoking.”

– Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) talks about his case of wishful thinking.

Isn’t it funny that Democrats like Harry Reid think it’s “worth it” hit poor communities disproportionately when it comes to taxes on cigarettes, and they don’t think tax cuts help those same people?

Hillary Clinton And Baby Bonds

“I like the idea of giving every baby born in America a $5,000 account that will grow over time, so that when that young person turns 18 if they have finished high school they will be able to access it to go to college or maybe they will be able to make that downpayment on their first home”

– Hillary Clinton talks about her “baby bond” proposal.

“I think it’s a wonderful idea”

– Rep. Stephanie Stubbs Jones talks about Hillary’s baby bond proposal.

“Every child born in the United States today owes $27,000 on the national debt, why not let them come get $5,000 to grow until their 18?”

– Rep. Stephanie Stubbs Jones talks about Hillary’s baby bond proposal.

That last comment is rather lame if you ask me. If every child owes $27,000 toward the national debt right now, then adding $5,000 per child to that debt is not going to help, nor is the fact that the interest on the national debt will rise exponentially faster than the interest on those cute, little adorable, baby bonds.

Elliot Spitzer & Driving In N.Y.

“We’re changing our policy with respect to getting more people out of shadows and into the system so people don’t hide they’re here”

To those who think this will make a difference… Just because they get a driver’s license doesn’t mean there will be fewer accidents or that they will purchase insurance before driving.
