My mother always used to say, “Life is the best teacher.”
Sure is — and sometimes it smacks you right upside the head. It appears this
has happened with Barack Obama supporters now witnessing their paychecks shrink
in the wake of tax increases. And they’re none too happy. In fact, they’re
shocked.

Shocked, I tell
you.

Providing examples of this liberal anger and angst, Joseph
Curl writes:

“What happened that my Social
Security withholding’s in my paycheck just went up?” a poster wrote on the
liberal site DemocraticUnderground.com. “My paycheck just went down by an
amount that I don’t feel comfortable with. I guarantee this decrease is gonna’
hurt me more than the increase in income taxes will hurt those making over 400
grand. What happened?”

Well, pal, I’ll explain it. George Bush has found a way to
control Obama’s mind, sort of like a zombie. I mean, you don’t think the great
orator’s mouth makes all the mistakes it does (off Teleprompter) because it’s
actually controlled by the great orator’s brain, now, do you?

Curl continues:

The Twittersphere was even funnier.

“Really,
how am I ever supposed to pay off my student loans if my already small paycheck
keeps getting smaller? Help a sister out, Obama,” wrote “Meet Virginia.” “Nancy
Thongkham” was much more furious. “F***ing Obama! F*** you! This taking out
more taxes s*** better f***ing help me out!! Very upset to see my paycheck less
today!”

How can you pay off loans with smaller paychecks, Virginia?
Ask Nancy; she sounds like a real intellectual.

Curl again:

“_Alex™”
sounded bummed. “Obama I did not vote for you so you can take away alot of
money from my checks.” Christian Dixon seemed crestfallen. “I’m starting to
regret voting for Obama.” But “Dave” got his dander up over the tax hike:
“Obama is the biggest f***ing liar in the world. Why the f*** did I vote for
him”?

I could explain why, Dave — very clearly. But I don’t use the kind of language you do. So I’ll
just say, my good man, that you’re what they now call a “low-information
voter.” And you and your comrades have given us a low-information
president. 

Curl mentions that more is yet to come, when other Obamabots
get their first paychecks on the 15^th. I’ll add that even this is
just the tip of the iceberg. Wait till they feel the full bite of ObamaCare and
whatever else is coming down the pike.

Well, as the old Dutch proverb goes, “We grow too soon old
and too late smart.”

Then again, sometimes the age shows up without the smarts.

Curl tells us that many liberal posters are blaming these
tax hikes on Bush. This is no surprise. I’m telling you, some of these people’s
epitaph will read, “It’s Bush’s fault.”
