October 21, 200817 yr I will give Bush Sr. the credit however, for the mainstream music being much better during the early Clinton presidency. Grunge ruled!!!!
October 21, 200817 yr I'm guessing that the bottom line is going to come down top "what is the definition of rich" when deciding who should be taxed the most. Some might pull an arbitrary figure out of the blue like $250,000. But if not enough revenue is generated, can the definition of "rich" be redefined? I suspect many people will be behind taxing the rich, until they are placed in that bracket by some politician's arbitrary definition
October 22, 200817 yr Just what have Obama and/or Biden said about this man? Evidently he WANTS to continue to stay in the spotlight. He agreed to be on Huckabee. Well Biden was making fun of him on Leno, and Obama has made fun of him at his rally, even getting a roar of laughs from the other obama kool aid drinkers. What I dont understand is Joe the plummber is a middle american, one that supposedly obama/biden libs are for...? But b/c he doesnt agree with them he is just a plummber with a dream and doesnt matter anymore. Just like they have with Powell, he stood for everything that obama disagreed with, but now he is a great man for obama b/c he is backing him.... I guess i just dont understand the Hypopcrisy from the left.......
October 22, 200817 yr Thought this might be of interest. This is an excerpt from The Republican National Trust PAC. (I know this will discredit the post with some, however, others may find it very interesting.) Here are just three of Obama's biggest lies: Obama Lie No. 1 — I will tax just the rich. There is no such thing as a tax on just the rich. Taxes on wealthy people affect everyone. Remember, Obama defines anyone making over $90,000 a year as "rich." Joe the plumber discovered that Obama thinks Joe's rich too. Under Obama, he won't be able to hire new employees and grow his business. Joe's not alone. Obama says he'll strip away the FICA cap at $90,000 for every worker. That means every dollar you earn over that amount, you'll pay 7 percent! Obama Lie No. 2 — I want to give a tax cut to the middle class. Baloney! Obama says he will let the Bush tax cuts expire. That's an automatic 5 percent (maximum) tax increase on almost all taxpayers. Plus middle class folks pay capital gains taxes. Obama has said he wants to almost double them from a low of 15 percent to almost 30 percent. He wants to hike the dividend tax, and he also has promised taxes on gas and energy. Obama also wants to dramatically increase the estate tax, which had almost disappeared. There goes your idea of sharing your wealth with your kids in the future. Obama Lie No. 3 — I want to make America more secure. Another outright lie. In an age when crazies like Iran's Ahmadinejad are building ballistic missiles and promise to "destroy" the United States and Israel, Obama has promised to gut the missile defense program created by President Reagan. "I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems," Obama said. He has promised to cut "tens of billions" of dollars from the Defense Department. In an effort to make us more "secure," Obama plans to disarm us. In the age of 9/11 can we afford such a radical Leftist in the White House? No, we can't.
