    I wish the media would stop referring to it as “Mitt’s tax plan” … it’s not a plan if it isn’t specific enough to implement, much less figure out where the who the extra money comes from. Can we call it “Mitt’s tax improv” or “Mitt’s tax hope”?

      I wish the media would stop.

    Please don’t taunt the man behind the curtain.  The Great Mitt has spoken.

    Maybe if they put “plan” in ironic quotes?

      I prefer to think of Paul Ryan as the ironic quotes around Mitt Romney himself.

      But maybe that’s just me.

        Oh that’s gooood.

    I suspect that the real bishop Nicolas of Myria would have regarded Mormon theology with a disdain similar that he felt for Arian theology and would strike Mitt on the face.

    I half expect him to bellow “Elf Helper” at the next real-life heckler.

  • John Napsterista

    Frickin’ “Elf Helper!!”  Panel 11 sums up Paul Ryan better than anything ever written about him.  (Could also be used for: Rahm Emmanuel).

    Elf Helper needs bigger pectorals.

    Elf Helper sound like something that you’d find in a supermarket in Mordor.

    It’s Mitt’s Tax-trick, obviously.

    It’s not punishment, its a coal subsidy.

    Santa doesn’t like questions. He won’t provide financial annual reports. It’s all magic.

    Does this mean Paul Ryan is Krampus?
