It is odd that Obama & team subscribe to the theory of 'smack them down so they fall in line,' but can't seem to understand the message of the 2010 electiona.

Wonder if Billy Maher would think Allison is a dumb t w a t?

An empty box would be better than Obama

Full of liberal compassion...typical of liberals

There you go again...injecting reason & logic into an argument. Foe shame.

Oopz...fact check time. "payroll tax" is your contribution to your eventual social security retirement payment. Nice try, but payroll taxes are not supposed to be for building roads and the military.

Typical for a liberal, you missed rhe point. Lets try more slowly... You earn $100,000 & pay income tax at the appropriate rate. With me? You take $5,000 of what is left, and place it at risk in the market. Stock goes down, you can claim only a portion of the liss. Stock goes up, you are taxes as t CapGain rate. It is not income...which was alreadu taxed once.

They are not. Buffet pays a lower tax rate on his CAPITAL GAINS, but if you were economically ligdrare, you would already know that, and understand that the money used to produce capital gains has ALREADY been taxed as income.

Hmmm. Killing time waiting at MD office, reading thru this thread. Is this guy John5840 for real? Does he often post such inane thoughts? Is there any question how Obama got elected when there are people like john?

I had to showID to get my library card lasy year.
