Lies about Taxes against Obama

Here is a link that outlines the economic plans for both candidates, a good tool to refute the misinformation that so many people have (and plan to vote on). I must say here that I am stunned that Republicans are still, "Taxes, taxes!" when our country is such a f-ing mess economically, structurally, environmentally, and in terms of civil rights, education and health care. They seem just fine to vote indefinitely for lower taxes AND criminal, corrupt, incompetent and crazy politicians.

What I've never understood is why someone doesn't get up and say "If this war is so important, why are we willing to sacrifice American lives on it, but not our tax dollars?"

Let's face it - no one believes in the war enough to actually pay for it. I'm convinced this is an unused angle that would get much traction.

I have to admit, Schmog, it's been a painfully long time since I heard or read such a surgically precise comment cut through the fog of this occupation as your comment above. Nice one.

Schmog, you and Urban are always so concise yet completely on target (while I ramble on and on...)

No. 44 wrote a post entitled, Yes, more taxes. In the comments, yours loquaciously, went crazy supporting the idea. Pardon the shameless self-promotion.

Can either of you tell me why Bushit gave out $600 to every American when the country is $9.3 trillion in debt? Daft. Maybe he wanted to hit $10 trillion?

We include a quote from Rick Sanitarium that expounds on the evils of socialism. It was at that point that I wanted to board the next plane to Sweden.
