President Barack Obama says he's not ready to comment on a proposal from some Senate Democrats to scrap his middle-class tax cut after 2010. Obama says he hasn't yet seen what changes are coming out of the House and Senate.
But he delivered his bottom-line on the budget at a Tuesday evening news conference. Obama said the budget must move toward health care reform and include an energy policy that frees the nation from dependence on foreign oil. He also says he's looking for investment in education and a reduction in the deficit.

At the beginning of the news conference our highly educated president said that the ability of homeowners to refinance their mortgages at a lower interest rate is the equivalent of a tax cut.
In the real world when you lower the interest rate on your mortgage, you end up paying less interest which then lowers the deduction you can take thereby RAISING your taxes.
Is this guy living in some parallel universe where the tax laws work in reverse? Are the rest of us going to be allowed to file our taxes on April 15th from that universe using his logic?
Is he through? Can I go into my living room again?
Ummm... doesnt he have an inside man named Doofy Joe? what the hell is Biden doing all day? Riding the train?
“”said that the ability of homeowners to refinance their mortgages at a lower interest rate is the equivalent of a tax cut. “”
I’m sure he figured that out on the campaign trail but just forgot to point out the “fine” details! Those pulling his strings can pull anything out of a hat for him to repeat and he’s none the wiser.
Read: We MUST flush more money down the drain.
“”include an energy policy that frees the nation from dependence on foreign oil.””
That’s such a novel notion - I wonder why we never thought of it before. You can tell what this creep has done to my mind - I read now like he talks! In bits and pieces....
He also said the tax cut was is the stimulus bill that was passed earlier. so there you have it
Is it safe? NO!!!
But you can do what I did. Right after he started with the inane statement about lower interest payments being a tax cut, I started the washer and dryer and used the lint from the dryer to make wads to throw at the tv screen.
Just make sure you have a 27B-6.
This man insults our intelligence 24/7. He is the worst liar to become President in history. It is just unbelievable.
What absolute dolts.
“”Just make sure you have a 27B-6.””
I said this creep has ruined my mind and I’m afraid I don’t know what a 27B-6 is!
At least screen lint isn’t going to damage your TV screen or anything else - unless you don’t remove it from your lint filter, that is.
I have a cat staring down at me from a bookcase - he doesn’t even want to go in the room with the TV.
It does make one wonder if he really is as stupid as some of the stuff that comes out of his mouth or does he just play stupid on TV?
A totally insignificant $ 400 dollars one time tax credit for the year 2009 only which comes to $ 8 a week and only for people making $ 75,000 or less. WOW... This must be the biggest tax cut ever given to us by the smartest, most competent, and most ethical President ever (extreme sarcasm).
Ask the Teleprompter — It knows.
He is really that stupid and he thinks that we are all that stupid to believe his lies.
My interest rate is already 4.37% (a 15 year fixed, 7 yrs left to go).
I don’t see how it could get any lower.
I’d like a tax cut instead of refinancing, please.
How are they related, anyway? Is a pay raise also the equivalent of a “tax cut?” Is working more hours the equivalent? And why is gov’t involved with everything?
I would rearrange my sock drawer before I'd watch him on TV.
The film Brazil has been on my mind a LOT since this guy took office.
Geihtner:”The market fixed it self? Markets dont fix themselves”
Obama: “No.. Markets dont fix themselves sir!”
Geitner: “I think...We will have a little look, dont you?”
The People: “Have you got a 27B-6?”
From Brazil...
