Republicans will never be able to build a political case for less spending if most Americans are insulated from the cost of that spending. …

Bingo. Look, everyone will have to pay a lot more if spending isn't cut drastically, so you might as well do it now and let BHO explain how 2+2=5. And it's not as if Democrats haven't let that cat out of the bag. Bill Clinton had a random act of honesty in May and Howard Dean said as much just this month. Just use their own words.

When they are moaning about taxes, I plan to simply ask all my libtard relatives a) which candidate ran on a platform of raising taxes, and b) which candidate they voted for?

I suggest Republicans also get into the habit of posing those simple questions when TV talking heads try to blame the plight of the middle class family on them.

Another variation: “Why do you keep voting for Democrats and then criticizing Republicans for not saving you from their taxes?”

Or how about “You know the new meaning of the letters ‘L-I-B’, don’t you?”

I agree.
The cliff reduces the deficit by 50%.
Then do not raise the debt limit which will eliminate the deficit inits entirety.

OTC (Over The Cliff)
Then LiB

If we go over the cliff the deficit goes down from 1.2 trillion to 300 billion. Let’s do it. Then go to work on the 300 billion. With our bloated government hacking out 300 billion would be like shooting ducks in a barrel. And everyone pays.

I know, a one trick poney, but it has a nice ring to it.

Yep, let’s shatter that reality-distortion field that has shielded middle-class bobos from the consequences of voting Democrat. The Noo Yawkers are already beginning to meep.

Why not? Like whiskey and cigarettes, it's an acquired taste.
