Ransom: "Why would something that didn’t work previously work now because you are using a smaller version of it?" I rest my case with the Bush tax cuts. Same concept same bad idea coming from Willard and his 20% tax cut.

Except the "Bush tax cuts" (aren't they the Obama tax cuts now, he signed them into law when they were going to expire in 2010) brought in more revenues.

Now why would we want to increase tax revenues.

Raising tax RATES does not mean raising tax REVENUE.

Obviously.

The Kennedy, Reagan, and Bush tax cuts all prompted INCREASED tax revenues. The problem was that Congress spent that money and more.

Good.. Keep resting.

Following Tax Relief 2003, 8 million jobs were created in the next 4 years (2004-2007). GWB's Tax Relief 2003 stimulated the economy, increased incomes, increased tax revenues, and decreased deficits.

We all know GWB was a great president, and yes, we miss him!

Following the President's 2003 tax relief, the United States had 52 months of uninterrupted job growth, the longest run on record.

all gains were made by construction jobs in an overinflated housing bome and most were lost at the bust. Had nothing to do with the Bush tax cuts.

Oh really, 001, what is your source? Where does it say 8 million construction jobs were created in 2004-2007 and no other jobs were created?

001, I think your latest post is dumber than your first?

Why dream up nonsense and post it?

do your homework. I'm not going to do it for you.

Democrat political consultant Robert Shrum tried paint Mitt Romney yesterday as another Thomas Dewey, who lost to Harry Truman in 1948 after being favored going into the fall.

In the Daily Beast, Shrum calls Romney “the little man on the wedding cake,” “stiff” and a few other things that look like a Hail Mary designed to paint Mitt as out of touch.

But more important than who is Thomas Dewey in 2012 is the question who, in this scenario, will play the part of the no-nonsense Truman in a “Dewey Defeats Truman” reprise.

Because it ain’t Obama.

Obama’s...
