kallend 1,647 #26 October 29, 2008 Quote You have to remember, folks, that John is roughly as old as dirt . . Hey, when I was your age dirt was clean, and the Dead Sea was merely ailing. Quote In 1967 his car was just old. It didn't get any younger with the passage of time.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

Now, like you, it's a classic Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

tigra 0 #28 October 29, 2008 QuoteA keystone of Obama's tax policy is tax credits for the middle class. Problem is they never paid the taxes so the tax refund is a handout, a redistribution of wealth so the question is valid. HUH????? Never paid taxes? Where do get this??? I can assure you, I pay PLENTY of taxes and have since I started working at my first "real job" at 16. Seems to me that its the middle class that pays the majority of the taxes in this country- the upper classes are always finding ways to get around paying taxes.

Well, HIS definition of "middle class" is someone who doesn't pay taxes. So by HIS definition, he is correct.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

maxmadmax 8 #30 October 29, 2008 [Actually Obama was called "Barry" by choice as a younger man. I think "socialist" is a better name. We can't expect the American People to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism.---Nikita Khrushchev My object in life is to dethrone God and destroy capitalism.---Karl Marx Don't go away mad....just go away!

So we share in the wealth when the development of these resources occurs." - Sarah Palin "The administration is not doing what I think they should do, and that's go in and buy out these bad mortgages, give people mortgages they can afford, stabilize home values and start them back up again. They did that during the depression, it was called the Home Owners' Loan Corporation." - John McCain McCain: " . . . We feel obviously that wealthy people can afford more." Question: "Are we getting closer and closer to, like, socialism and stuff, when you have some people paying 60 percent overall in a year of their money to taxes. That's their money, not the government's. How is that fair?" McCain: " . . .So, look, here's what I really believe, that when you - reach a certain level of comfort, there's nothing wrong with paying somewhat more."

TheAnvil 0 #35 October 29, 2008 LMFAO. Biden handled that interview fairly well by dodging the questions. Marxist those comments are indeed. Now - just think if the media treated the democrats as graciously as Charlie Gibson treated Sarah Palin. All of the time. They really wouldn't like it then.

LMFAO Jayzus...I just searched and watched that video. That was painful to watch, worse than the Kouric interview. Agreed, Charlie Gibson was being a twat, but Sarah sure didn't make it better with her responses. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think about it and try again. the problem with people understanding this subject is that they assume that medicare, state and local taxes are included in this but they are not. Obama is talking about federal taxes only (as far as i can tell) and to that the people making under $50.000 pay next to nothing after they get the deductions and file the tax return and alot get money back from the government after filing the tax return.
