Unconstitutionalists of the Global Commie Unionist Corporate Criminal Regimes ;

Eight former Federal Election
Commissioners recently wrote
in The Wall Street Journal :

Perhaps the most striking thing
about the Disclose Act is that, while
the Supreme Court overturned limits
on spending by both corporations and
unions, Disclose seeks to reimpose them
only on corporations.

The FEC must constantly fight
to overcome the perception that
the law is merely a partisan tool
of dominant political interests.

Failure to maintain an evenhanded approach
towards unions and corporations threatens public
confidence in the integrity of the electoral system.

Citizens United did not make
it legal to buy and sell politicians.

There are sill bribery laws on the books for that.

All Citizens United did was uphold
some of the most important rights in our country :

The right to engage in free speech, particularly
political speech, and the right to freely associate.

The DISCLOSE Act, however,
is designed to do exactly the opposite.

At the committee markup
Rep.Michael Capuano (D-MA) said
that he wished it were possible to ban
all outside groups from participating in
elections and that he hoped the
DISCLOSE Act would do just that.

This is what
the DISCLOSE Act is really about :

Protecting incumbents
favored by big labor and their leftist allies

Last Friday
brought yet another grim jobs report.

The 'economy' created 431,000 jobs in May
according to the report, but 411,000 of them
were temporary government jobs working
on the Census.

All those jobs will disappear
when the Census is complete.

The jobs report is the latest signal that the stimulus
has failed to create jobs and that the economy is
still far from full recovery.

With the economy still in a precarious position,
this is no time to raise taxes on anyone.

Yet that is just what Congress
and President Obama plan to do.

Congress is currently working
on a bill that will raise taxes by $43 billion.

These tax hikes
will slow job creation and economic recovery -

These latest tax hikes
come close on the heels
of the health care law that
raised taxes more than $500 billion.

It seems like Washington can never
get enough of our hard earned money.

The next tax hike on the docket is allowing
the 2001 and 2003 tax relief to expire.

Most expect Congress to keep the tax relief
in place for families making less than $250,000
a year ($200,000 for singles), but families
earning above that mark will likely see their tax
rates go up from 35 percent to 39.6 percent.

But that's not all.

Tax rates on dividends could go up from
15 percent to 39.6 percent and the rate on
capital gains from 15 percent to 20 percent
