“to scare people into supporting policies that increased the burden on working people instead of helping them live their dreams.”... Doubled over barf!

The government doesn’t create jobs. People create them when WORK needs to be done. Those jobs add to the GDP. Government jobs reduce the GDP.

IT’S NOT ABOUT THE TAXES YOU BIG DOPE.

IT’S ABOUT THE SPENDING!

Obama doesn’t get that reasonable understand that taxes are necessary for the support of this great country. How could we have such a strong military without taxes?

But when you spend our tax dollars frivolously... when you use tax policy to perform social engineering... when you use tax “rebates” to redistribute the wealth.

THAT’S where we have a problem.

Is he talking about the 8 bucks a week? That will be considered as income on this year’s taxes?

"95% of families getting a tax break in every paycheck."

When over 40% of people don't pay taxes, it is not a tax break for them - IT IS WELFARE.

I agree! Especially signing the spending bill without even reading the damn thing. That is criminal in its own right!

“Tea-baggers”??? So is this the mainstream media’s attempt to belittle a group of people or the President’s?
