bump and read —tax cut issue

[mnehring]

I wish the question would change, instead of arguing who gets the cut, fight Obama’s honesty in wanting the cut in the first place. IMHO, it is a BS focus group number. If Obama really wanted a tax cut for 95% of Americans, he can write a bill tomorrow or he could have written a bill in his two years as Senator. He never did. Instead, he voted for tax increases for everyone making over $46K/year.

Actions over rhetoric.

Put up or shut up Obama- if you believe it, write a bill.

If you don’t, then you show yourself to be nothing but a used car salesman.

100,000 people at a recent Obama rally? Is that for real?

[Mr. Know It All]

McCain is claiming that tax cuts are welfare now? Really?

300 million people in this country and we couldn't find a conservative to run for President?

[scottinoc]

Assuming that Obama will extend the already existing Bush tax cuts for those making less than $250,000

...and that is a gigantically naive assumption

[JimRed]

It has been widely misstated that the wealth would be spread around. It is INCOME that will be spread around; the truly wealthy will have their assets well protected.

[Principled]

but if 0bama wants to cut payroll taxes for a certain group, how will said certain group get their payroll tax “benefits” ... ie social security?

seems someone else will be paying those premiums.

that’s welfare.

[Blogger]

sadly, yes.

There is something quite chilling when one realizes that Barack ACORN Obama disregards the Constitution where just born alive infants are in a life and death situation, and this ‘man’ will be deciding whom is worthy of living via the dependence upon government dole. And he will have a way to make 95% of Americans dependent upon the government.

Well, what would you call tax cuts for people WHO DIDN'T PAY ANY TAXES?

Did you even read the article?

did you even read the article? McCain rightly says he is going to cut income taxes for everyone that pays income taxes. Please read the article and try to understand it before believing the "tax cuts" proposed for the working class.

I don’t know that I’d agree with ‘welfare’ but I sure see the “redistributing wealth” in his idea.

OB’s idea of tax credit it truly a shining example of what Joe was trying to get across when he asked OB the question. It is getting lost in all the ‘smoke-n-mirrors’ the liberal are throwing out.

[Miztiki]

Obama fooled you too?

Did you read the article before posting?

[JimRed]

Obama’s articulation is what he describes in his book as “How I learned to talk to white people as to not scare them... don’t make any sudden moves... don’t appear radical...”

This is the first time a clean cut, nicely dressed, well spoken black man has made me nervous...since Elijah Muhammad, anyway.

Ironic handle you got there.

You're either a troll or you can't read very well. I'm going to go with troll.

McCain is pointing out that what Obama is calling a tax cut is not in fact a tax cut, but welfare. Which it is. Obama's 'tax cuts' amount to unearned income taken from other Americans. Back to DU with you.

[FutureRocketMan]

Awesome debunking of an Obama cover-up! These things need to be told to those “nasty little fact haters” so they can vote right.

[Mojave]

He’s a Barr supporter.
