As far as the Obama remarks are concerned, I think it speaks to one's own education, intellectual development, integrity, ethics and character. I for one, do not approve of the mudslinging on either side of the political spectrum, but I especially do not approve of personal attacks that have nothing to do with the behavior/actions/words of another.

Having said that, I am typically middle of the road on everything political because being in the middle allows me to select the best from both sides without being tied to either. Furthermore, I think it is irrational, illogical and fairly silly to think that I could possibly vote Conservative on every single issue, or Liberal on every single issue. There are times when a little of both are not only possible, but prudent and wise. So, I split my ticket often.

However, this particular cycle will see my vote for Obama as I cannot possibly fathom 4 more years of the same failures and because I really do think it is time for the "old establishment" to be flushed out of Washington, or at least put in "check", as it has run wild over the past several decades and we seem to end up right back at square one every single new cycle.

Change in imminent. Change is necessary. Failure to change the establishment in IMO at this junction is also dangerous.

End of soapbox.
 
Actually, the number is a lot higher than you think it is. Only those making over $288k a year will get a tax increase, and only a small one at that. Those making less than $50k will actually get further tax cuts than they've already received from Bush. Don't believe what Neil Boortz tells you.

At the debates I recall Obom saying that " if you make less than 75K you will get a break" So now over 75K and your considered rich? WTH?:banghead:

I don't know what you're talking about. I don't remember any such comment from him. You're probably thinking of the $50k cutoff which is where his new tax credits come in. Those making under that amount actually get more money back. But those over that amount won't see a tax increase until you hit $288k.
