American families are in desperate need of economic relief.
Barack's plan will cut taxes for 95% of working families.
John McCain will provide billions in tax breaks for big oil companies and giant corporations with no relief for millions of middle-class Americans.
Barack is calling for three times the tax cuts for middle-class families.
With our country facing the most serious economic crisis since the Great Depression -- over 760,000 jobs lost this year, unemployment skyrocketing, and retirement losses exceeding $2 trillion -- we need to take immediate steps to recover.
Forbes writer Brian Wingfield recently used the tax cut calculator and told his readers exactly how much he would save...
"Obama's web page has a very simple gadget that's the most useful thing I've seen on any political website in a while.
It's a "tax cut" calculator. You just fill in your income, filing status, whether you're saving for retirement, number of dependents, outstanding mortgage balance, etc and --voila!--it shows you how much you'll save in taxes under an Obama presidency. It tells me that I'm going to keep an extra $1000 of my hard-earned cash if Obama wins. It also tells me I'll save $0 under a McCain presidency."
If it well spent, then I will pay my share. I believe in effective government. I don't give a damn what size it is, as long as it works. If it takes more money to make it work, well then, I've got it so my government can have some.
My mother was on public assistance when I was young and I know the value that an insignificant amount of money from me can bring to someone like her.
"Fuck em' and feed em' beans" mentality.

they also contain plenty of fiber.
Sweatleaf,
Yes the plan will give the middle class a little more in their pocket. The problem is people keep forgetting that the top 2% of income earners in this country are the ones that most of us work for. If they get taxed more, they will just cut back meaning they will cut jobs. You think the unemployment rate is bad now? Just wait....I cant ever remember working for a poor person!
Believe me all these guys do is sit around all day seeing whose dick is bigger and comparing checkbooks. Sharing thier latest scheme to defraud the American people.
The resulting vacuum though initially tough will provide business oppotunities on American soil. Which Obama has talked about time and again. A much stabler and profitable economy. Especially if one of the replaced or downsized Industries would be Oil. Redistribution of wealth?
I really dont see any alternative.
Hey dont get me wrong. I dont really like either of the candidates. Redistribution of the wealth is nothing more than taking from one person and giving to another. In other words "welfare". We will become a socialist society just an earshot away from a communist society. I wish the voting ballot looked like this
Democrat
1. Sadaam Hussein
2. Barack Hussein Obama
3. Osama Bin Laden
Republican
1. John McCain (american hero)
Hey, Where has Biden been? Word has it, his party put the muzzle on him. Wonder why??
Uh....no.....Palin is giving speeches every day and in the public eye. When is the last public speech you heard from Biden? You might want to find out why.....Sure wish the media would cover this issue more. They need to find out what his running mate really thinks about him.
"Johns a maverick and hes got the scars to prove it".
Oh yeah she did back pedal and lie a bit. And that was with an obviously friendly reporter who immediately backed off.
I dare you! (to coin a phrase) Show me one recent interview with Palin addressing issues with unbiased reporters.
You win the dare. I cant show you one recent interview because they have all been biased to the left. The only unbiased channel is Fox News. She has chosen to take on the liberal media. Once again, where has Biden been? After his comments stating the world will challenge Obama in his first 90 days to see what he is made of, quote "Mark My Words" that this will happen. Why should we risk getting attacked again. The choice is simple...McCain...and we dont have to worry about being challenged in the first 90 days of the new presidency.
Obamas camp does not want him opening his pie hole any more....probably some conspiracy on the republican side.. he must be an imposter vp planted by the republicans. I am telling you... go check into this! He is poison for Obama and I wish the liberal news media would talk more about it.
But Obama is not half as sorry as McCain.
Yes, the libs here all should go to poor people to ask for a job & let us know how that goes for them.
BTW, every hobbiest should be a Libertarian to so degree
I am with you nightowl! The libertarians could make some ground in this election! Too bad they havent done so. I think that might be where I vote just because..
Nightowl,
They will get their chance to ask for jobs very soon. Gonna have my eye on the unemployment figures and figure out what I am going to do on my extended vacation from October to December 31 every year! Sure as hell wont be working for free!!!!
