Anti-tax jihadist Grover Norquist
(Joshua Roberts/Reuters)
Hilarious:
“There’s not going to be a tax increase. Part of the reason is the Democrats have decided they’re going to blow this process up in order to blame the Republicans for nothing happening,” Norquist said on C-SPAN’s Newsmakers. “That’s their political decision.”
“The modern Democratic Party has made it clear that they want a trillion-dollar tax increase,” he added. “Their position is set up to make this fail.”
Each time that I try to wrap my head around that logic, I come up short. It literally makes no sense whatsoever. But isn't it interesting that instead of blaming Democrats for blocking spending cuts ... Grover chose to blame Democrats for blocking tax hikes? Maybe somewhere inside his squirmy little brain, his political id is trying to tell him something.
6:03 AM PT: Oh ... and it's awesome seeing Grover say Democrats are making "a political decision" here. Just what does he think the Republicans who have sworn him their fealty are doing?
