Top Republicans Signal Willingness to Break Anti-Tax Pledge

Top Republicans Signal Willingness to Break Anti-Tax Pledge

According to Newsmax, there are growing signs within the Republican ranks that the no-tax pledge they have long upheld they are now supposedly willing to bolt on it.  Four Republicans have signaled willingness to do so.  Senators Lindsey Graham, John McCain, Saxby Chambliss, and Rep. Peter King have stated they viewed the no-tax pledge designed by Grover Norquist to be binding upon them.  The decades-old pledge designed by Americans for Tax Reform has been signed by 238 House members and 41 members of the Senate.  Now we're having an elite group of Republicans that's willing to step away from that.  What a tragedy we don't have Republicans that stand for their principles like Democrats do.  House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has a backbone of steel when it comes to standing for what she believes.  I wish we had Republicans that were adamant about what was right as Nancy Pelosi is when it comes to promoting the leftist agenda.  We don't have a single member of the GOP like that. 

I believe it's immoral for these RINO's to bolt from the no-tax pledge.  There's no excuse for our lawmakers to pass on a tax increase to us when they spend money like a drunken sailor.  The GOP House under crybaby RINO John Boehner hasn't done anything to eliminate wasteful spending.  It's a crying shame.
