Fred Thompson’s best line

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

From his speech at the 2008 Republican National Convention:

Now our opponents tell you not to worry about their tax increases.

They tell you they are not going to tax your family.

No, they’re just going to tax “businesses”! So unless you buy something from a “business”, like groceries or clothes or gasoline … or unless you get a paycheck from a big or a small “business”, don’t worry … it’s not going to affect you.

They say they are not going to take any water out of your side of the bucket, just the “other” side of the bucket! That’s their idea of tax reform.

You can see that portion of the speech below. It’s about 5 minutes into the clip.

 

Note:
