This will surely take up most of our conversation on the show today ... that and the weird little stories we like to dig up and pop on you a few times an hour.

First of all .... If this Pledge to America is so great, why did I have such a hard time finding the text of the actual document on the Internet today? All Internet roads seemed to lead to the CBS news coverage ... and when you tried to download or print the actual document you were led to Facebook? You have to log on to Facebook to get the document? WTF? Finally did figure it out though. Now it's available on the GOP website.

Now ... looking at the actual pledge:

• Stop all "job-killing tax hikes." Good move. This is essential to bring our small businessmen back into their job-creation mode. Remember that the reason Obama wants tax increases on the evil rich is not to generate revenue but rather to punish these people for doing so much better than the average American. They clearly have more money than they need and it needs to be taken away.
   
• Small business tax deduction; a deduction equal to 20% of small business income. Interesting. Now comes the scramble to try to take wage income and camouflage it as business income. I see enforcement problems here.
   
• Cut government spending to pre-stimulus, pre-bailout levels. This is fine, but spending really needs to be cut back much more than that. As long as the federal government has one dime that can be spent on something so absurd as studying grandparents in Alaska or teaching African men how to wash their willies ... the government has too much of our cash.
   
• Establish a hard cap on discretionary spending. Fine. But doesn't this all depend on where that cap is set? Make it at least 20% lower than what we're spending right now.
   
• Cut Congress' budget. Good idea, but I have a better one. Make each Senator and House member a small businessman by giving them a certain sum to run their office. Let's say, for the sake of argument, that right now the average House member spends $1.5 million running his office. Fine ... give him $1.6 million at the beginning of the year and tell him that this will have to last him. Not only do all operating expenses come out of this sum, but so does his salary. The more he saves and the better he is at cutting costs, the more he "makes" from his small business at the end of the year.
   
• Hold weekly votes on spending cuts. Here's an idea: Every week have some director of some agency spending taxpayer money appear before a special panel - live on C-SPAN - to defend his agency's budget. Then, as with American Idol, the viewers get to vote on whether or not he gets to keep his budget and his job.

Now ... here's one I REALLY like:

• Adhere to the Constitution: This provision of the Pledge to America would require a Constitutional justification - Article and Section - for each law passed by congress. Unfortunately they'll probably just list say "Commerce clause."

Now remember ... anyone who supports these ideas is both an extremist and, of course, a racist.

OK ... more on the show. But first:
