Bottomless Meanness

I actually think it's not about taxes any more.  It's about punishing everyone who is not rich, white, straight, male and conservative.

Kevin Drum:

A harsh streak of just plain meanness has taken over the GOP in recent years, and I haven't seen any sign that it's fading away. Maybe this is just partisan bitterness on my part. I sure hope so. But as near as I can tell, they'd actively enjoy making the lives of the poor ever more harsh in order to save the rich from paying a few taxes. I sure hope we don't get to find out.
