Frank Wolf Advocates "Largest Middle Class Tax Increase in History"

I've got to give Frank Wolf credit; when he messes up, he doesn't do it halfway. Check this one out:

In a stunning reversal of his position against tax increases, yesterday Congressman Wolf endorsed the largest middle class tax increase in history. During the Thursday evening debate in Manassas, Congressman Wolf endorsed Senator McCain's plan to tax health care benefits.

[...]

The McCain-Wolf health care plan would leave millions without health insurance and would shift costs to individuals and working families who are already hurting....

In addition, by taxing employee health benefits, the McCain-Wolf plan will make it more expensive for employers to provide coverage...

The bottom line is that instead of fixing health care, Wolf (and McCain) want to tax it. Brilliant! Read the rest of the story here.

judy was awesome! (bruce roemmelt - 10/17/2008 12:38:49 PM)
great event and proud to have so many 10th Dems in attendance.  Judy was on the mark on every issue.  Wolf dodged answering on multiple issue.  choice (seems like he's not in favor of a constitutional ammendment on this now).

he really punted on Webb's GI bill and his vote against.

his ties to McCain on health care did not resonate, and his constant reliance on 'commissions' just delays real action.  his references to the SAFE commission were just distraction.

when you vote with Bush, and against kids health care you're not a 'moderate.

his anti stem cell position is typical of an out of touch with the 10th district figure.

at least he's right on immigration ;-)

Frank Wolf is a walking contradiction (Ron1 - 10/17/2008 10:50:35 PM)
I just listened to the whole debate. I may need to listen again and put my thoughts to (e-)paper. What a hypocrite -- he symbolizes all that is wrong with Washington.  


Agreed. (Lowell - 10/17/2008 10:54:20 PM)
Watch the debate and I think you'll agree, Frank Wolf needs to go.
