Syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer took a humorous poke at Barack Obama and Chief Justice John Roberts Monday.
During a Special Report discussion about the President recently begging for donations during a conference call aboard Air Force One, Krauthammer said, “If he is running low on money, what he ought to do is to call it a tax and send the IRS after it to go and get it, which I’m sure his lawyers will be able to find a way to do it, and then go find a Supreme Court justice who’ll uphold it.”
JOHN ROBERTS, SUBSTITUTE HOST: If the President doesn’t get that money to get the ads out prior to the convention, is he going to be in trouble? I mean, when you look at the fact that Mitt Romney raised $16 million more than the Obama campaign did back in May.
CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: I think he would be in trouble if that happened, and I think that if he is running low on money, what he ought to do is to call it a tax and send the IRS after it to go and get it, which I’m sure his lawyers will be able to find a way to do it, and then go find a Supreme Court justice who’ll uphold it.
Look, this is their [unintelligible] punishment. He broke all the rules in 2008. He buried McCain in money, and now it’s going to happen to him.
