This morning, New Mexico governor Bill Richardson, and enthusiastic supporter of Barack Obama, continued the downward ratchet of the level of income at which Barack Obama intends to confiscate income.
Obama started at $250,000, then said $200,000.
Joe Biden then dropped the bar to $150,000 three days ago.
And now, Bill Richardson is telling us that anyone making over $120,000 will be penalized by an Obama administration.

I smell a rat. I think Richardson said this on purpose to screw Obama. If Richardson thinks Obama is going to lose - he will try to screw him and get back in the good graces of the Clintons. Believe me - Bill and Hillary know what is going on.
I know people on the ground there. There are connected ward style GOTV Democrats who are very plugged in working for McCain. It is not a secret in NM but the pollsters and MSM have no clue.
RE: “I wonder what the final figure will be.”
I truly think the final figure will be 40,000.
It could even go to 30,000 though.
People are idiots to believe Obama.”
**************
Yep, anyone who believes one thing this fake says is truly stupid. I’m thinking the final number will be $42,500!
Not only is the threshhold dropping by the day - now you are selfish for not WANTING to pay it, to boot!
“I realize that liberals will argue with that conclusion. But what alternative is there other than a weak argument that Obama might lower taxes below $X of income, raise taxes above $Y of income, and do nothing in between. I believe that outcome is unlikely, and if he tries it, he’ll blow a huge hole in the budget.”
Of course, if Ocraphead's definition of "the rich" are those he's going to tax more, we're all "rich", because everyone will pay more when The Holy One and his 'Rat allies allow the Bush tax cuts to expire. That's across-the-board higher taxes.
LOL
What is up with that? Can't find anything on it.
"100? 100 to the man on the left! Do I hear 95? 95K? 95K for the definition of rich. 95K? 95K to the lady on the left. Do I hear 90? 90K?"
Hint: It's actually $42K for Obama and his socialist buddies. They WILL RAISE your taxes, people!
Thanks, searched for it but could not find anything. Having a harder time with the newer search feature.
According to Biden we’re unpatriotic if we don’t want to pay higher taxes ....(and give our hard-earned money away as welfare).
According to Obama we’re “selfish” if we don’t want to pay higher taxes .... (and give our hard-earned money away as welfare).
Can we all agree that Obama/Biden MUST be kicked into the dustbin of political history on November 4th?!
(I knew we could! ;^D )
Then again, added Lawrence Eagleburger, several other vice presidents were also not ready. And he said he was confident that Palin, Alaska's governor, was tough enough if called to serve.
One little word could have changed the whole concept. The word even in bold is mine.
It’s simpler than that.
Obama and the RATS are going to retroactively accelerate the expiration of the Bush tax cuts in Januuary 2009. These tax cuts affect all income brackets. Their expiration will also reinstate the marriage penalty.
The RATS cannot afford to have this tax increase fight in 2010, and therefore they will be accelerated.
I honestly cannot understand why McCain is not shouting this from the rooftops. BO has already voted against making these tax cuts permanent.
McCain seems to ignoring this vital argument as well, very much to his political peril. If doesn't want to say "Bush," then just say the tax cuts of 2001 and 2003...
"Let the class warfare bidding begin!"
"$250,000!"
"$250,000 from the man with the big ears. Do I hear $150,000?"
"$150,000!"
"Very good, $150,000 from the man with the Botox grin...Do I hear $120, 120,120,120,120..."
"$120,000!"
"I have $120,000 from the Fat Man from New Mexico! DO I HEAR $50,000 A YEAR FOR A FAMILY OF FOUR?!! LET'S GET TO $50,000! LET'S GET TO THE TRUTH! I NEED YOUR ROCK-BOTTOM BID, BUT NO BIDS BELOW THOSE NOT PAYING INCOME TAXES AT ALL!!!"
Proof positive: I laid this scenario out for a Libtard yesterday -- that people earning under $50,000 are realizing that their taxes are going up up up if Bush's cuts are allowed to expire -- and Libtard had no refute, he simply shuddered at the thought Palin was getting this message out.
He senses what's about to happen...that Middle America came to their senses...
Under $200,000 a tax cut.
Over $250,00 a 3% tax increase.
I don't think Obama's changed his plan. If he changes it, it won't be until after the election. :)
Tell me please, the following: Palin is on the stump saying:
1. “you are selfish” if you don’t want higher taxes according to BO
2. expiration of the 2003 tax cuts means a tax increase for all Americans.
Is it 1 or 2 or both? Your post was not clear. Thanks
If the guy’s elected, it’ll drop to “below $25,000” and the usual dem victim groups will rake it in...
