Heh. A Teachable Moment for President “do as I say, not as I do” Obama. Hey, we thought “pro-choice” was the oh-so-enlightened stance, no?
Evidently not. Golfer Phil Mickelson realized that recently when he was ridiculed for his talk of moving to avoid paying his “fair share” of insanely high taxes.
@UTKevinAcee Mickelson’s whole 1%er anti-tax whining makes him teally unlikeable. Sorry.

@flounder_MA @UTKevinAcee I'd say he's paid his fair share more on taxes than you have. If he wants to choose where he lives whats it to u?
