I was like.. you realize you get taxed a certain $ of your first 7,500.. than a higher % for the next amount up to x amount of dollars, etc.

Its not like if you make 59k you are taxed 25% Of all.. then you make 60k and you get taxed 33% of all! I couldnt believe she didnt know that after how many years of doing her taxes?

as far as the bolded part... Democrats have always been great at spending less (and I'm not including G-Dub in the Repub spot cause he spends just at bad as a dem- and pissed off a lot of Repubs doing it)
Yeah, those people just kill me, amazing how many of them are out there too.

I can't see McCain as President being anymore fiscally responsible than Bush. I at least think there is a chance Obama will be.
