This discussion isn't about the merits or shortcomings of the tax raise you're opposing, but about your insistence on using middle-school potty-mouth language in your opposition statement. If your point is that important to you (rhetorical "if" - I'm pretty certain that it is), then grow up a few grade levels and write a statement that can stand or fall on its own qualities, instead of insisting on using language that will be a lightning rod for criticism and distract from your message. Actually, considering the newspaper article and the resulting comments, it looks like your "B.S." has already become a lightning rod and a distraction.
