During Tea Parties, President To Highlight Tax Cuts
realclearpolitics.com ^ | 4/14/09 | Kyle Trygstad & Mike Memoli

Tomorrow is Tax Day, and conservatives across the country are planning "Tea Parties," intended to be grass-roots "revolts" against the Obama administration's economic policies thus far. Though organized independent of the Republican Party, a number of officeholders and candidates are planning to attend local events.

At the White House, Robert Gibbs said that he's not sure if President Obama is aware of the planned demonstrations. He will, however, mark the day with a White House event "to signal the important steps in the Economic Recovery and Reinvestment plan that cut taxes for 95 percent of working families in America," Gibbs said.

"We'll use tomorrow to highlight individual instances and families that have seen their taxes cut," he said. "Americans will see more money into their pockets as a direct result of the making work pay tax cut that the president both campaigned on and passed through Congress."

Evidently Obama knows that his base is so moronic that if he says twenty times a day that he has cut their taxes, they will think he has cut their taxes.

Subtle hint to President Obama...

You actually have to have legislation that cut taxes, you moron!

You haven't done anything, yet....just an empty suit full of empty rhetoric.

What tax cuts?

He RAISED taxes on 25% of the population within 10 days of being in office with the SCHIP bill.

Nice to know he's trying to counter us, though.
His countering of Rush only inflated the issue for more people to see.
Keep it up, oBUMa!

“We’ll use tomorrow to highlight individual instances and families that have seen their taxes cut,” he said. “Americans will see more money into their pockets as a direct result of the making work pay tax cut that the president both campaigned on and passed through Congress.”

Idiots, Businesses don’t pay these increased taxes. They either go out of business laying people off or pass it on to 95% of Americans.

Yep.

Also, that $13/week should be saved to pay the every-increasing fees (read: taxes), such as auto registration, inspection, tobacco, alcohol, value-added taxes, etc.

Why, of course not. And the full-court press from the media in the past couple of weeks to sneer at the whole thing, he isn't aware of that either. Way down in the noise level. Nothing to see here.

But they sure do sound nervous, don't they? I mean, for folks unaware that this is happening. Awfully, awfully nervous.
