I'm guessing it's probably in the thread somewhere already but I'm posting it anyway:
"We're going to broaden the tax base" is so deceitful it deserves special mention. The working poor with incomes who pay no income tax, all pay a greater % of their income than Romney because they pay FICA taxes. Ryan and Romney's call to "broaden the tax base" is specifically geared to play on the redistribution lie. It's sad these Republics would misdirect their base with this lie. Ryan and Romney have to know it's the same as saying "we're going to tax the poor because the rich need tax cuts if they are going to create jobs."
