"I have never seen anything this ridiculous."

Many of us have uttered those words while listening to the latest statement coming from the overtanned talking head of John Boehnhead (Oh-Unlucky 08). So maybe he should be careful about uttering them himself — don't remind us, Boehnhead!

This man, with the temerity to host a site called Republican "leader," is condemning what he calls "Nancy Pelosi's energy tax" (gotta get in all those Republican talking points! Blame everything on Pelosi! Refer to taxes without enumerating the benefits!) as "too confusing" for us poor little citizens to handle.

He's even provided a lovely chart, which you can see alongside his statement — filled with red boxes and yellow boxes and green boxes and pink boxes and lavender boxes, with random words like "families" and "gasoline prices" and "lost jobs" and of course "IRS" (aka "boogieman"). Your third grader would probably get a "C" for this poorly digested, random nonsense (he'd be upgraded a little for his copious use of color, unlike the famous GOP budget chart).

Yes, governing is complicated! So let's just simplify everything and yell "tax cut! tax cut! tax cut!" some more.
