You mean to tell me that there are people posting at DU that actually work and collect a paycheck?

This time next year Ubama’s favorability rating will be in the 20s, but by then it won’t matter anymore.

ANY LIB, in good standing, should understand this in a few words.

Bush etal authorized a tax break which expired.

SO when the tax break gets put back in, it is NOT a tax, it is just making things the way they were..

Now that BO gets ‘stuck’ with having to actually order it rescinded, it is Bush’s fault cause he gave it to begin with.

SO, This NEW TAX increase that isn’t a TAX increase, is W’s fault.

Bottom line your check gonna be smaller AND if your hours are lowered as your employer doesn’t want to pay all the ‘extras’ for Govt Programs etc, some how, some way, W will get blamed again.

Good grief! DUh is still around?
LMBO! How retro. A blast from the past.

I remember screwing around there with the mice about ten years ago. I got “tombstoned” in about 2 hours because I pointed out a couple of inconvenient facts. Never went back. Took two showers.

No. You overestimate the power of people who know better and will not be able to change a thing.

When they can’t face the reality that their ideology is a complete and utter failure, there’s only one thing left to do.

Blame Bush.

Blame Bush? If you want to know what their FR nicks are, just look for those who are also blaming Romney.

Thanks Kaslin.

I just handed my 2% cost of living raise over to Obama and co. Add to that the actual 3% rise in the cost of living and we’re talking about a 5% hit. That’s $4,500. Add that to the same 5% hit my girlfriend just took and now we’re talking about a 10% reduction in this household’s disposable income or about $9,000 per year less money to spend on things like gas, groceries, utility bills, mortgage payments, property taxes, etc. This President is an economic disaster. Bush was an infinitely better President.

The buttholes at DU should see what it does to those of us who make real money instead of minimum wage.

It was a great thread as it devovled into class warfare between the haves and have-nots over at DU.

Amazingly, there were a small handful of Voices of Reason (aka "Freeper trolls") calling people out for trying to blame this on Bush.

Five percent of yours plus five percent of hers is still five percent of your combined total.

Not ten.

Nope. Hussein did this one all on his own. And RATS are upset.

outrage on Democrat Underground

I'd be apoplectic too if it bit into my patchouli money.

Problem is the SS tax holiday was put into effect over 1 year ago. By Zero. It just came to an end.

On the other hand, when the Bush tax cuts went into effect 10 years ago, it was called a tax break for the wealthy. When they were set to expire, they suddenly became a tax increase on the middle class.

I read the thread on this over at DU (it’s locked, BTW - the original poster removed it, but the comments are still there). The best I can gather, it looks like they all work as Whole Foods or Starbucks and make $10 an hour, and want to blame their economic condition on the one percent. Just my observation.

WHAAAAATTTT????

If your income is 100k, and your girlfriends income is 100k, that equals 200k.

you lose 5k and she loses 5k that equals 10k, but is only 5% of 200k.
