and you're dead wrong about Bush's tax cuts. its a shame.
only among democratic kool aide drinkers is an across the board tax cut seen as a "tax cut for the rich" or that they were paid for by taxing the middle class more.
it goes beyond sad, its pathetic.

What fairy tale? I never said I was voting for Obama or bought into anything either have said, I simply repeated it. You appear confused on what Obama is doing, I cleared it up.
Under the Bush tax cut, millions of Americans, mostly upper-middle class, paid extra tax every year since his tax cut. His net balance of the cut vs the increase in other areas, did not actually decrease taxes. That is a fact and you can look it up.
I never heard Obama say any thing about evil corps. Just that CEO's getting multi-million dollar bonuses after bankruptcy is bs, which it is - I wouldn't get a bonus if my company went bankrupt. And the true fact that our Companies do pay less tax than almost any nation because of the loop holes that also get us into trouble. Not evil - just logical.
I don't see what the issue is with taxing the upper classes more. I'm not rich but I'm not in the middle class either. I have no issues paying more tax. I support, supporting our lower classes and people that can't afford to pay for basic things of life, like medical care.
Even my family, I make plenty of money, decent size company. And I can not afford to have my wife in my Insurance policy. She can not, ever, get a policy on her own, even Bill Gates couldn't afford it. She can ONLY work for major Corporations or nobody can bring her on. The cost of her medical care is more than my house.
So yeah, tax me more, tax you more, tax all us higher income people more. They would have to tax me 80% for it not to be worth it on my end. So I fully support it, fully support social health care. And I support higher income people/companies paying for it.
Onlything I know is McCain isn't correcting a damn thing and at least Obama has a half ass game plan/idea that 'if' he pulled it off would actually help the Country. Otherwise, who cares, we are fucked all around either way.
