WASHINGTON -- Congressional Republicans' opposition to any tax rate hike on the top two percent of earners shows few signs of letting up as the debate wears on. But the beneficiaries of that opposition, the nation's wealthiest executives, have themselves begun opening up to the possibility of a rate hike.

On Tuesday, FedEx Chairman and CEO Fred Smith, an adviser to Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign, said that the notion that tax hikes on the richest Americans would kill jobs was simply "mythology."

And on Monday, a gathering of the nation's top defense executives took a surprising turn when they endorsed tax rate increases on the wealthy and cuts of up to $150 billion to the Pentagon's budget. Top executives from Northrop Grumman, Pratt & Whitney, TASC and RTI International Metals appeared at the National Press Club at an event organized by the Aerospace Industries Association, the top defense contractor lobbyist.

David Langstaff, CEO of TASC, said that the executives were speaking out because so far leaders of the defense industry were "talking a good game, but are still unwilling to park short-term self-interest." After the event, he told a defense reporter for Politico that tax rates need to go up.

It's not the ideal system but the best in the world so far.
We've just lost our grounding as decent human beings because of the spread of progressive secularism. It is making politics a blood sport. Win at any cost.
I'll agree with that 100%.

Actually, it is. It just depends on the circumstances.

About 3.2 million people have applied for disability benefits this year, up from 2.6 million in 2008, the agency said.

Disability claims usually increase when the economy is bad because people who managed to work even though they had a disability lose their jobs and apply for benefits. Others who have disabilities may not qualify for benefits but apply anyway because they are unemployed and have nowhere else to turn.

It's only going to get worse. Without jobs and job creation, people become desperate - many through no fault of their own.

Obama and the Democrats created this climate. They have no intention of changing it.

Darden Restaurants backs off on pre election threats to worker hours. Hmmph!
Papa Johns, Denny's and Applebee's have watched their sales nose dive due to attempts to "swing" an election__fk them, particularly Denny's which has been a shthole since opening it's first store.
Darden really didn't need to enter that fray but it did so fk them too, even though I own a mess of their stock and belong to that company's FCU.
Evidently these companies and others actually believed that the hapless Mitt Romney stood a chance at unseating a sitting President who holds a lot more appeal to voters than their food and service does.
Lessons learned, eh?
Perhaps, but the cat's out of the bag!! Did they actually think it was good business? I don't frequent those restaurants anyway, but have had the occasional papa johns pizza, but will never do it again. eff them. There are pizza places on every corner.

And then there's Kathleen Sebelius, Obama's apointee as Health Secretary....
Sebelius won the governorship of Kansas with large donations from Tiller.
She appointed abortion practitioner Howard Ellis – who gave up his medical license in Missouri to avoid disciplinary action – to the Kansas Board of Healing Arts, the agency that is responsible for monitoring medical staff and centers to make sure they comply with the law. Ellis was later charged by the Board with attempting to persuade a physician to falsify records.
Sebelius also appointed a supporter of Tiller’s political action committee and pro-abortion activist to the Human Rights Commission which pro-life advocates considered an irony.
Sebelius’ hand-picked attorney general, Paul Morrison, who ran for office as a defender of the abortion industry. After only a few months in office, he was forced to resign amidst reports of having sex in public buildings with a subordinate and abusing his authority to obstruct the investigation of abortion practitioners.

Yeah, we can rest assured this nation will be blessed...
Your boyfriend O'Reilly should have been sued by the Tillers family for wrongful death by inciting this madman to committ murder in church. He was a member of the Army of God; the christian taliban.
