Reply #8: Let's Do Some Checking.

First, the IRS and the Federal Tax system were the lovechild of William Howard Taft and the right wing Repugnicans of 100 years ago.

Now, while I don't earn over 500,000 a year, I sure know the difference how taxes bit when I was making 20k a year and today. It's too easy to remember looking at those payroll checks and seeing all those taxes taken out; and then under the laws of Raygun, I still had to pay more in April. AND, I was paying property taxes, state taxes, local taxes...no one is exempt. Today, I definitely pay more, since I earn more, but I feel it a hell of a lot less. And I know that I'm paying for a good school system (a major reason I live in this area), streets, sanitation, parks, the senior center, the health club (probably most of these wingnut morons are members) and so on.

O'Reilly should take his own advice and "shut up" when talking taxes and incomes if he wants to keep pretending he's "the voice of the regular guy". He's more like Archie Bunker...and at least we all knew that Caroll O'Connor was 180 degrees opposite of the bigot he played on TV. O'Reilly is the real deal.

BTW...doesn't Mr. O'Reilly happen to LIVE in New Jersey? Just wonderin'...
