Steve Schmidt: "This is Bullshit. I'm Not Doing This..." Feeling A Little SORE, Steve?

Schmidt's co-host Adam Levin asks Schmidt if he thinks Derek Jeter will hit fewer home runs if every dollar he makes over ten million will be taxed at a 70% rate. Schmidt says "this is bullshit! I'm not doing this..." and stomps off his own podcast.

A little touchy in that area, Steve? I can't blame you. It's pretty hard to defend a spoiled billionaire who feels persecuted because somebody suggested he should pay roughly the same tax rates as the poor surfs who are cleaning the crap out of his goddamned expresso machines.


And what's all this stuff about billionaires fleeing the country en masse for Dubai, if their taxes go up by a couple of percent? I seem to remember Sean Hannity swearing he'll leave New York and bunk up with Rush Limbaugh in Florida because the taxes are too high in New York. Well, unless that's a hologram at 30 Rock, the squeaky little shit-heel is still in New York. Apparently Atlas shrugged, and nobody gave a shit.

So once he's not working on a campaign, he'll be eligible again.

How does it also feel to have been a part of the right wing fascist machine, to have put two, yes, two assholes, on the US Supreme Court John Roberts and Sam Alito, that voted mind you. to attack unions right to be represented by a majority, that your team members find appalling just like voting, AND the Voting Rights Act, just so that just like in Texas right now, 95,000 voters are under attack, because of some fascist republican AG can do it.

And is going to set up for the attack on the issue of a "woman's' right to privacy, because the ground work has been put in placed now that two, mind two people that shouldn't even be on the bench, are salivating to attack that privacy , yes, Steve Schmidt, you were running around and saying your BS about the sexual predator, but just think your still part of the team, that just screwed millions of tax payers with the tax cut called the "republican party" ..........................bite me , your still an right wing ass............................
