great, hit the rich-sounds good. and then more programs that they pay for, so no debt gets paid down, no change in the deficit. more of the same. i read the laundry list of stuff he wants, and you think that cap gains increase alone will pay for it?


For some reason you have a hard time comprehending Obama's tax policy. I dont know if its out of stubborness or an illogical yearning to stay ignorant on the subject but for some reason you dont want to take the time to research and learn....but yet you still want to attempt to discuss it.

Who said it was cap gains alone? Who said he is "getting ideas from the very group he's trying to save us from"? These statements demonstrate a total lack of knowledge on the subject at hand.

i just said that. he has said he won't roll back bushes tax cuts, and now you're comparing his cap gains percentage to reagan. those are republicans, aren't they?

i know he claims to want to lower middle class taxes, and raise it on the rich, but i also know he's waffling on that now, as i posted above.

but i'll keep in mind that you're saying he wants to raise taxes other than capital gains, that's good to know as well.

LOL. What you posted was not a news article but rather EXCERPTS garnered from a RIGHT WING BLOG called midwestern voices. Yes, great source there. Millions world wide are reading "midwestern voices" as we speak. LOL.

Surely you can do better than this. Your information is completely inaccurate and your demonstrating a complete lack of knowledge.

I would have played it the same way if I was in the position you were. Lets (oh, ****, forgot the apostrophe) get away from the topic of not knowing what I am talking about and change the focus to a typo on an internet forum. Great.

I dug around and found your wonderful source of knowledge and enlightenment (did I spell that right?). In the future, you would be wise not to pass off a "column" as an "article". Surely that mistake is more egregious (sp?) than subsituting Your for You're (especially when i used your earlier in the same sentence).

http://voices.kansascity.com/node/2015

In case anyone wanted the link to the "column". In case you didn't know, Danzig, a "column" is a reflection of the writer's opinion. A news article should just be fact.

If you think Republicans are on your side in economic matters, then you really shouldn't bring up the word intelligent. If you were against abortion, wanted prayer in school, and wanted vouchers for kids to have the choice to go to private schools, then you would make a lot more sense. Atleast you would know why you routinely vote against your own best economic interests. Economically, you think like most of the necks around you. You don't agree with their social values, but on economic matters you're as backward as they are. You're out of place there, and you would probably feel a little out of place with people who embrace your particular social values. They don't square up. That's why you can't find anybody to support whole-heartedly in elections. Most people aren't like you.

btw, the second excerpt in that was not from the blog, but can be found in various news articles, as it's a quote, second paragraph below...

Democrat Barack Obama says he would delay rescinding President Bush's tax cuts on wealthy Americans if he becomes the next president and the economy is in a recession, suggesting such an increase would further hurt the economy.

"I think we've got to take a look and see where the economy is. I mean, the economy is weak right now," Obama said on "This Week" on ABC. "The news with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, I think, along with the unemployment numbers, indicates that we're fragile."

that's from the star tribune in minn/st paul minnesota.
the reason i posted what i used to google was so that if anyone else wanted to check out the results, they could do so without me having to put stuff here. so go google it if you so desire. or not.
