He hates it so much he wants to cut it twice!

About half of the Department of Energy’s budget actually supports defense programs. To endear itself to the right it should change its title to “Department of Nuclear Weapons”.

Guy who wants to eliminate the Department of Education can’t manage to count to 5. If someone put this character in a movie, he would be too stupid to be believable.

Must be a Texass brain fart thing or something. Gawd, I hate this cretin.

…learn about the full plan, which also involves eliminating the corporate income and payroll taxes.

Eliminating corporate income taxes! Can he make it any more obvious who he’s speaking to with that shit? Because it sure isn’t your average wage earner, that’s for sure. Republican politicians love getting their base to always vote against their own self-interests…Un-fucking-believable.

I saw this live and immediately had Rick Perry flashbacks. Was hoping someone would not miss this. Wayy to stay on the ball, TPM!

Did anyone ask him why corporations shouldn’t have to pay taxes? I mean…how dumb do you have to be to think that makes any sense whatsoever.

Apparently they count differently in Texas… numbers are bigger, like everything else especially dunces.

I noticed the same thing, so I watched the video. TPM misquotes him.

At least it’s finally ending. That’s the best thing that’s happened all night. Can’t take all the sloganeering. It’s enough to make your brains fall out.

First one he mentions is that evil, IRS. Guess Dept of Treasury is just too many words to recall

So being a Braniac in the GOP means saying the same thing twice instead of oops?

What a nimrod.
