I won't bore everyone with a rehash of the all-too-familiar story about Hussein's tax cut going to people under $250k (Hussein), then $200k (Hussein), then $150k (Biden), then $120k (Richardson).
Suffice it to say that Hussein's retort was that people making under $250k wouldn't see a tax increase but people under $200k would get a tax cut.
But Claire McCaskill was just on Fox & Friends and said, quite clearly, that people making under $150k would get the tax cut.
So the number goes down. Again.
Also she lied about the tax rates. She said that the highest rate under Hussein would be the same as under Reagan. In fact the highest rate under Reagan was 28%. Under Hussein it would be 42%.

But not everyone making under $150K gets the tax cut. People making under $42K are also making under $150K. You gotta parse what they say.
Yep.
They lie.
She has kin in this county I live in and they are sooo ashamed of her!
Folks from around these parts of Missouri are pretty fed up with the old gal, too. She’s such a tool.
The only value of this falling number is that it demonstrates that the Democrats are lying before people go out and vote.
The end of that exchange was quite enjoyable to watch - Steve Doocy really pinned her on how much taxes would go up. He asked by what percent, she said it depends on the tax, he said ok, income tax, she stammered with that silly permanent grin for a minute (the pause was actually awkward) and finally said, well I really don’t have the exact percentage. He said oh, and returned the smile. Priceless.
This lady should be on the top of the list of winnable seats for the GOP in 2012. Then again, Airheads like Babs Boxer and Patty Murray keep on getting reelected.
Thanks for uncomplicating the difficult for me. I was listening to Joe the Biden for the explanation. I can now live peacefully knowing that my gov't has my best interests in mind.
I’m getting very tired of her plastic pasta cooker ads on cable. Just how hard is it to cook pasta?
Ditto!
She’s a pawn in the DNC’s pocket.
She won Missouri because of her small town base.
Vote for her once shame on me, vote for her again and I’m a freaking idiot.
BTW, looks like she shops at Saks or Neimans. Those clothes aren’t what we typically see women wearing at the Lake.
I wish this lying whore would simply tell the truth. When Hussein and the ‘Rats let the Bush tax cuts expire (and probably make the expiration date retroactive), everyone will be paying more. This “tax cut” business is pure cow chips. Taxes are going up under Hussein and the ‘Rats, period. Just say that, ‘Rats, and stop insulting the intelligence of those of us who can still think.
Bottom line, if you are a business or individual making over 150K, wear black Wednesday if O wins.
Dooce pivots. He shoots! He scores!
Heh!
Toad/Tool
Tomater/Tamatoe
; )
I would hope they get into how Obama feels about the Bush tax cuts that will expire. Another big tax increase!
“Claire McCaskill Changes The Tax Numbers Again”
It’s deliberate obfuscation. It’s much harder to hit a moving target.
The highest rate under Reagan (before the cuts) was 70 percent.
I see where they are going with this.
And Steve Doocy made her look like the tool she is.
