They Just Don't Get It

The Republicants rail against "no new taxes" (including the infamous "death tax") and yet continue to want to raise new programs from the dead and pay for them by cutting other services (like social services). They don't want to raise taxes on the Filthy Rich because that is who backs/controls them and their "Tea Party" (may they be dumped in the severly poluted rivers and bays of our major cities).

They want their cake (like the infamous, and apparently incorrect Marie Antoinette quote) and they want us -- the rest of Us; the middle and lower classes -- to pay for it.

And they got "Them" "thrown out" in the last election ("Them" being Democratic long time members of Congress) whilst neglecting their own "Us" (Republicant long term members).

No, Elephants, you can't have your massive cake (or portion of the pie) and eat it too. It's Tax the Rich time.
