1. Anthony cleaned his clock
...not that fox viewers would understand. Oh well, if it got through to at least one of their viewers it is a victory.

2. Huckabee used Ann Coulter techniques in talking with Weiner.....
don't allow the opposition air time to tell the truth and just talk over them. I bet Huckabee was breathing a sigh of relief when the segment was over!

3. Weiner did well under the circumstances.
Seems likely he won't be invited back for a while.

12. Huck should go
back to practicing the rapture on lower animals, like republicans and doing magic tricks during sermons to keep the kiddie's fleeting attention span. Better yet, just wear a Reagan wig like Romney!

10. That's worth investigating.
It might show how bankrupt these guys really are, except for corp media bailing them out of embarrassment and covering up how little support they really have. They gotta keep that fake bubble big in order to win.

6. Weiner is fantastic! He holds his grounds and calls the hypocrites for what they are!
I think he needs to do something much bigger in the government than what he is doing. . .why not being Chief of Staff for Obama. . .and then move on to a presidential bid in a few years!

He is dynamite!

8. Correct me if I’m wrong
Isn’t tax based on NET revenue?

Huckabee threw out the fallacy that “small businesses are in the category of being millionaires” because they have million-plus dollar gross revenue.

The fallacy that is usually thrown in as a follow up is that increasing taxes will reduce the incentive to hire.
Hiring is based on the belief that the market will support growth and the NET revenue generated by additional locations and workers will increase (e.g. Starbucks).
I think the tax on people netting over $1,000,000 should be increased by an additional 10% to give them an incentive to try and make up their reduced party/vacation/luxury money.

Toward the end, Huckabee tried to throw in a concept that would grab Fox viewers attention (you work twice as hard; you should bring home twice as much) and try to create an association to inheritance tax by proximity. Hopefully, Weiner was able to hammer home his point on inheritance tax. It’s a shame he didn’t get a chance to get into the value of a graduated tax system

9. They always use
the small business hoax and misdirection. Of course the tax is on the net. And they always wrongfully conflate the income and business taxes.

14. Off topic: Did you happen catch the next segment?
The Huckabee/DonnyOsmond/MarieOsmond/AndyWilliams circle-jerk?

I was horrified.
