That side of Obama’s program does not play well outside his inner circle, so he has been careful to overlay it with seductive talk about “tax cuts for 95 percent of taxpayers”–an absurdity on the face of it since 43 percent of those who file do not pay any income tax at all.

Indeed, that’s absurd on it’s face to anyone with a three digit IQ, but people with two digit IQs are allowed to vote, and to them, it’s manna from heaven: a free lunch, and punishment of the bad guys to boot.

That the McCain campaign hasn’t resoundingly debunked this nonsense may end up being why we’re all going to end up with a nanny instead of a president.
