    Mr. Dayton, the middle class is broke!
    Small business’s are broke!
    The state employee pension funds are broke!
    http://www.startribune.com/politics/state/101616353.html
    Mr. Dayton, we are facing over 6 billion dollars in debt!

    Mr. Dayton do you think everybody, but you, can easily transfer their capital to other states (or to offshore accounts)?

    WHOOOSSSHHH!

    That sound you just heard was money being flushed out of Minnesota. Mr Dayton do you really believe this is going to raise revenues?

    Mark, now stand straight and look me straight in the eye….

    okay I mean both eyes…now how many fingers am I holding up…yes, you are right,
    just one finger.

    Dear readers, I ask you two questions?

    How the heck are we going to fund all Dayton’s intended programs, for instance Mark’s promised state funded all day kindergarten? Plus more early childhood?

    Does he think money grows on trees?
    Well, I would be afraid to ask….since he may ponder that question and cause my bowels to release.

    Who, but the Minnesotans out there trapped in the wild blue yonder of euphoric wonder would bank on you?

    The state of Minnesota is not to “big to fail” Mark. Although your intension’s may be sound your judgment falls short, very short.

    Any one with their head on straight and any sane liberal after his/her morning espresso shot would see, in spite of themselves, that your wild blue yonder Utopian plans, are but a dream for you,and if enacted, for us Minnesotans it would be a nightmare!

    Mark, you say “tax the rich.” Are you aware that the rich can easily transfer their capital out of the state with a few clicks of a mouse and clicks on the keyboard? Our you that naive? Mark “rich people” are pretty savvy with money.

    Your plan is the equivalent of Minnesotans shooting themselves in the foot.
    Your schemes if put in play would hurt senior citizens and sick and vulnerable, those least able to care for themselves. California, a very liberal state has been forced to cut most all welfare because they verge on insolvency.

    I hope anyone reading this commits to voting against Mark Dayton on November 2.

    2010 is the year that transcends party affiliation.

    We, Minnesotans and our country are in the worst financial crisis (worse than the great depression). Unlike previous crisis’s (we were a on average young population during those years) we won’t be able to solve this crisis, with our monstrous debt and psychotic Federal reserve printing money at full capacity, the same methods.

    Whoever banks on Mark Dayton and if Mark Dayton becomes our, Minnesota’s, worst governor, than those who voted for him will deserve what they get.

    Don’t bank on Mark Dayton….we can’t bank on Mark…
    A Mark Dayton governor would bankrupt us all!

    Yeah, that asshole doesn’t avoid higher taxes by keeping his inherited wealth in Sount Dakota, his family does.

    The only way wealth, DFL-fascist asshole Mark Dayton avoids taxes is by claiming every deduction he possibly can, despite the fact that he doesn’t believe he pays his fair share.

    Mark Dayton: What a fucking asshole.

    Mark Dayton couldn’t sell water-melons at the farmers’ market even if those, said, melons were juicier….juicier than the most juiced up, baseball slugger.

    Senator Dayton describes the situation with his trust with sincerity and honesty. That’s what I like about Mark Dayton… he faces the press and answers all of their questions. He believes that being straight with your constituents is important.

    What a red herring! Senator Dayton’s father setup the trust many years ago and Mark has no control over them.

  5. danbrome Says:

    Dan Rather…

    Can you please give us 900 words on how Tom Emmer will rescue us all from financial ruin? Be specific when you describe how he will balance the state budget with no tax increases of any kind.

    And don’t make me wait. A blowhard like you should be able to handle this assignment, no problem, right?

    “Senator Dayton describes the situation with his trust with sincerity and honesty.”

    So did Bill Clinton when he said: “I did not have sex with that… that woman.”

    I think Dayton does believe tax increases raise revenues, because they do. And Mark Dayton proves that. He could live anywhere but he chooses to live in Minnesota and pay Minnesota taxes.

  8. Hector Says:

    I sometimes wonder whether Republicans know how taxes work.

    “Are you aware that the rich can easily transfer their capital out of the state with a few clicks of a mouse and clicks on the keyboard?”

    A Minnesota taxpayer can transfer his capital anywhere he likes, but if he derives income from it, he has to pay Minnesota taxes on it. Where the account is located makes no difference as to the taxes the Minnesota taxpayer pays.

    Bill Clinton was lying.

  10. Dan Rather Says:
    September 9th, 2010 at 10:05 AM

    Mark Dayton is truthful, but ignorant…and carefree he can afford to be. Can you? Can all of us?

    Mark Dayton will drive away out of state investment here in MN. Local investment will be discouraged and jobs killed and killed and killed…bled to death.

    There is a reason Mr. Dayton’s family set up Mark’s trust fund in South Dakota, don’t ya know.

    “I think Dayton does believe tax increases raise revenues, because they do.”

    Not always.

    “There is a reason Mr. Dayton’s family set up Mark’s trust fund in South Dakota, don’t ya know.”

    Yeah, to Hector’s point, whatever income he gets from the trust is taxed in Minnesota… but in Minnesota, I believe the Trust, which is treated as a separate entity, also would pay taxes on investment income…

    Those rates are lower, if non-existant in South Dakota…

    In any case, you can’t really tar Mark Dayton with that brush… Better to stick with the drunk, mentally ill disgraced former Senator line.

    ““I think Dayton does believe tax increases raise revenues, because they do.”

    In Massachuesetts, tax increases destroyed the yacht manufacturing industry… result, lower revenues.

    Analysis of Barack Obama’s proposal to increase the capital gains tax, predicts lower revenues.

    Democrats are stupid, because they are dumb enought to believe that everything is a zero sum game… that purchase and investments will be made, regardless of the tax rates…

    That’s simply untrue.

    If raising taxes increased revenues, then why not just increase them to 100 percent? … because then you’d unleash the poverty of third world Cuba on America.

    Conversely, you can’t cut the rate to zero either… such a cut wouldn’t increase revenue either…

    It’s a game of striking the balance and adjusting policy to meet economic conditions… and by policy, I mean spending too.

    Tax cuts are most effective when accompanied by spending cuts. In the past 15 years, neither party has had much appetite to reduce spending though… that trend accelerated rapidly in 2006, when Democrats took controle of Government.

    And since Obama took over, Democrats have added more to the debt than presidents Washington through Reagan combined.

    And yet that ignorant dipshit community organizer, hired through the affirmative action window pretends of offer wisdom about ecnomic policy.

    We need to fire that arrogant dick pronto.
