Remember McCain’s reason for not voting for the Obamacare recall?

Something about not using the correct process of committees ect.? Bringing in the other party.

This bill didn’t do any of that either.

So McCain’s principals are full of crap.

Translation: it’s not my turn to kill the bill this time, but I know whose turn it is this time.

Sorry to sound negative but why should I expect anything less?

You know, with the Dems apparently collapsing we may start seeing some defections toward the right or better said the “center”.

I guess I’m not middle class, or the rich, or poor.

I now wonder what the hell I am.

Because my taxes are going up by several thousand dollars per year.

Depends on where the middle class is. In states with high tax rates, they will no longer be able to deduct state and local and property taxes. Here in Tennessee where we have no state income tax and low property taxes (outside of Nashville) we’ll actually see our taxes go down as the standard deduction will double.

Really? When are we going to see that tax bill?

McCain being in favor of a thing is a reason to be wary of the thing.
