More proof that tax talk is a negative issue for republicans. Mitch Daniels in his republican response should have a newborn baby next to him. He can tell the audience that this baby owes $65,000 to the Chinese and will owe $150,000 to them by the time she is 10 years old.

Here is an endorsement you don't want, but it shows you how much Obama is hated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- thehill.com Filmmaker Oliver Stone would vote for Ron Paul over President Obama By Jonathan Easley - 01/24/12 09:52 AM ET Filmmaker Oliver Stone, known for his liberal political views, said he would vote for GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul over President Obama should Paul win the Republican nomination. In an interview with Rock Cellar magazine, Stone was asked if an economic collapse would lead to the fall of the American “empire.” “I think it’s a given,” Stone said. “There’s no way that we can continue this spending spree. In fact, I think in many ways the most interesting candidate — I’d even vote for him if he was running against Obama — is Ron Paul. Because he’s the only one of anybody who’s saying anything intelligent about the future of the world.” Stone was a vocal supporter of the president in 2008, and wrote an editorial in the Guardian saying that Obama could be the “heir to John F. Kennedy.” According to Federal Election Commission records, in 2008 Stone donated $2,300 directly to the Obama campaign and another $2,300 to the Obama Victory Fund, which raises money for Obama’s re-election as well as for the Democratic National Committee. Stone also has a long and controversial history of political filmmaking and political stances. He’s directed movies about Presidents George W. Bush, Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy, as well as films about 9/11 and Vietnam War veteran and activist Ron Kovic. Stone is also known for embracing some of far-left’s most notorious figures, such as Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and Cuban leader Fidel Castro.
