Federal tax figures from 2008 – Limbaugh, WSJ and Powerline

By Steve McGough / April 19, 2011 /

There has been a lot of discussion concerning where the money really is on conservative blogs, the Wall Street Journal and the Rush Limbaugh show. I heard Limbaugh discuss the subject during his first hour yesterday and I thought his presentation was a bit confusing to listeners.

Connecticut Budget: Malloy starts with tax increases, where are the cuts?

By Steve McGough / February 14, 2011 /

I’m serious. I’m waiting to hear about these supposed $2 billion in cuts. Total spending by the state of Connecticut has increased from $13.4 billion in 2001 to an estimated $26.1 billion dollars in 2011. That’s almost doubling the state budget in 10 years. Connecticut did not ride the TEA Party conservative wave, and we…

By Steve McGough / January 3, 2011 /

Last summer, New Jersey ammended the state’s Uniform Unclaimed Property Act, allowing the state to seize (steal) unused money on gift cards. The law was signed by Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.).

By Steve McGough / September 9, 2010 /

Sec. Clinton does not think the rich pay enough taxes

By Steve McGough / May 28, 2010 /

Yup, the rich do not pay enough taxes. Well Secretary of State Clinton, since you think that way, may I suggest you and your husband cut a check and pay extra local, state and federal taxes immediately. There is nothing stopping you from paying more, but you won’t do it … and you know it.

Obama, Biden – new bank taxes will “get our money back”

By Steve McGough / January 15, 2010 /

Are they friggin’ kidding me? Increasing taxes on large banks to recoup financial “losses” is not going to put one dime into your pocket. They want to sell it to you as putting the screws to big-bank and putting money back in your pocket, but President Obama and Vice President Biden are lying.
