    Obama is going to be the next president, so this is just getting stuff off my chest.

    5. I'm astonished by their lack of knowledge of history.

    Biden not knowing Hoover was President during the Crash of 1929 is de able. Then making up a story that Roosevelt got on Television.... Unacceptable ignorance IMO.

    Barack and his "bomb that fell on Pearl Harbor" and Americans liberated Aushwitz.

    People who don't know history are doomed to repeat it.

    4. The 95% of people will get tax cuts lie. Tell it like it is Barack. More han 40% of people will receive a welfare check. It's redistribution, why lie?

    3. throwing his mother under the bus. Michele Obama not being proud of her country. Rezco, Wright, Ayers, etc...

    2. His radical views on Abortion. Dude called babies punishment.

    1. En lements are going to bankrupt this country and Obama is going to add fuel to that flame.

    "Radical" views on abortion, like the views that the majority of women take to have freedom of their own bodies?

    Any common sense tells you taxes are going up the next few years. Deficits and debt are just skyrocketing with no end in sight.

    This will happen regardless of who wins tomorrow and the reason is George the Chimp Bush who more than doubled the size of govt and it's debt in just 8 years. The guy left the next President with an ugly federal balance sheet which is going to have to be cleaned up with higher taxes any way you friggin slice it.

    You don't finance a doubling of the government with one of the largest tax cuts ever.

    It's Chimp Economics. We'll be paying the price for decades for Bush's incompetence, stupidity, and stubbornness.

    It'd be nice to pass a law where a minimum level of IQ is necessary before one can run for President in light of the Bush fiasco.

    He did not lie he himself said he is trying to spread the wealth. IMO that is a good thing.

    Mcain threw his wife away for a younger hotter version.

    2. His radical views on Abortion. Dude called babies punishment.

    radical view is forcing the victim to have a baby after being raped by a drug addict.

    Haha, and Palin is such a History guru? What a joke... I'd love for one of these reporters to give her a pop quiz next interview with her pathetic degree in Journalism.

    "Mrs Palin, can you please tell us who muckrakers were?"

    Palin: "Well, first let me ask you who you think they were?"

    Couric: And when it comes to establishing your worldview, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this to stay informed and to understand the world?

    Palin: I've read most of them, again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media.

    Couric: What, specifically?

    Palin: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me all these years.

    Couric: Can you name a few?

    Palin: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news, too. Alaska isn't a foreign country, where it's kind of suggested, "Wow, how could you keep in touch with what the rest of Washington, D.C., may be thinking when you live up there in Alaska?" Believe me, Alaska is like a microcosm of America.

    Good point bobbyjoe about taxes being raised regardless due to the spending that has already occurred. Might as well get some government programs out of that taxation.

    What a ing worthless post.

    Obama taught Cons utional Law for 5+ years. He knows more about US History than any President in our history. If he misspoke on a subject it's probably a brainfart more than anything, you realize how many speeches he has given in the last 2 years? Everyone goofs. You're a ing moron. Kill yourself.

    Maybe the repugs are the ones that need to go read a history book. How many times does laissez faire capitalism have to fail before they realize it doesn't work.

    Cue socialist accusations...5...4...3...2...

    example please.

    He has not stated it the way you're suggesting. He continues to say a tax cut for 95% of people. It's a welfare check for a large percentage. It's cool that you believe that's a good thing. Mr. Obama shouldn't lie about what he really means.



    Mcain threw his wife away for a younger hotter version.


    I voted for Bill Clinton so you're not going to get me on women. However, felons, terrorist and racist do bother me.



    radical view is forcing the victim to have a baby after being raped by a drug addict.
    get real. try again.

    how has it not worked? We are the wealthiest country in the world. Our "poor" are rich compared to the average citizen in a communist/socialist country.

    Look at what capitalism has done to the Chinese Middle Class.

    Are there business cycles, yes.

    The cuts were deficit-financed. Does that bother you? It should, especially if you are worried about out of control spending.

    Have to agree.

    I am not entirely sure everyone is going to get a check, per say.

    3. throwing his mother under the bus. Michele Obama not being proud of her country. Rezco, Wright, Ayers, etc...
    Cant agree. Politics is a dirty business, shady characters abound....unless youre born it.

    2. His radical views on Abortion. Dude called babies punishment.
    Totally disagree, and I dont recall that remark.

    1. En lements are going to bankrupt this country and Obama is going to add fuel to that flame.
    Wholeheartedly agree. Although, I think either candidate will do the same. That is the crime of this election.

    BTW, I think a lot of people jumped the gun on 2cents here.

    He is approaching the oncoming Obama presidency in the proper context.

    Objectively. Its time to be critical again, ladies and gentlemen.

    My opinion, anyway.

    simple math. cuts generated increased tax revenue. If cuts decreased revenue, and then you would have a point.

    Spending is the problem!

    I'm not talking about communist/socialist government. I'm just talking about taking the laissez faire out of the picture.

    The 03 cuts increased the GDP, but that's owing in part to the fact that we were coming out of recession and a dip in revenues after the 01 tax cuts. The cuts may not have decreased revenue, but they very well may have generated less revenue than would have been generated without them.
