Take time to check out the Tax Calculator that Obama acknowledges his nifty calculator ignores.

Starting at Obama's taxcut website, I checked out FAQ's, and they acknowledge his nifty website limits many scenarios, but, that alchemytoday.com/obamataxcut does include many more. For example, I put in a 1 earner family, with 2 dependents, making $75,000, Yes, 75K, and McCain's tax break was $323 higher.

The biggest lie in Obama’s tax talk is that he slyly ignores the tax increase that will be placed on all Americans by allowing the GWB tax cuts to expire - This is not mentioned within HIS tax policies..... He acts as if these have already occurred and uses everything post-that-happening as evaluation for his “tax cuts / raises”.

The results are in...
You probably will not get an Obama Tax Cut. This calculation is not perfect, and Obama has recently promised not to raise taxes for anyone making less than $250,000 per year.

These numbers come directly from calculations by the independent, non-partisan Tax Policy Center. They estimate that your taxes in 2009 will change by $97.27 under Barack Obama and -$115.14 under John McCain.

Above are the results of MY tax break under the Obama plan ... hmmm, good thing I voted early yesterday for McCain.

Well, it just confirmed what I have always known...$1,000 more under John McCain...”I suppose that makes me Evil,” or something equally as non-conformist under the Marxists Socialist plan...how dare I want to save that money for my son...

Scenario (close to my own)
Married - one income earner, $150,000, three kids.

McCain’s plan has me getting almost $2,000 more back.

If 0bama follows thru on his plan to remove the cap on wages subject to social security taxes, then people earning more than $102,000.00 in wages will see a marginal tax rate increase of 15% -- this amount ON TOP OF whatever might be the increase in income taxes.

In other words, the big 0's beloved "middle class" had better get ready for a very rough ride!

Unless I am missing something, single parents get more under McCain under all 3 scenarios.

No, I'm typing too fast and should have CAPITALIZED that point.

This is too easy to demonstrate. If this is true, McCain should hammer the living crap out of BHO with this!

This information comes FROM Obama’s FAQ’s on HIS website. To me it is irrifutable.

BINGO - and why is this not mentioned anywhere or by any republican strategist or mccain himself?

the obama plan and the democrats still consider the money from the bush tax cut THEIR money. and when they expire we will be back to where the taxes were supposed to be. such arrogance
