Oh, and I was referring to the Bush Tax Cuts. In post #7.
Maybe the current Obama cut is a pitance and falls short of his promise, but at least it went to people who actually have a NEED for it. And, BTW, if you and I have received a tiny, but real tax cut, then what in Gods name are the Teabaggers protesting, anyways? Or are they just making asses of themselves at Sean Hannitys behest?
Well, to be fair, the jury is still out on that one too. What with all of the bailouts that started during the last administration, we will have to pay it back someday, I guess? Maybe with further tax cuts? Wasn't that the Conservative view, that tax cuts ultimately lead to higher revenues for Uncle Sam? Isn't that how we paid for Reagans 600 ship Navy, etc, etc ? ( I Know I heard this on Limbaughs show when I was still wasting my time listening to him when I could have been jamming to tunes.)
What an insane, confusing mess he have here?
Anyways, It's time for yours truly to begin preparing for work.
Enjoy your day, everyone!
Dave

The left's desire to surpress dissenting views doesn't make the rest of the media impartial.
Which one of our favorite nonbiased newscasters said 'the Republicans are trying to destroy America'?

Anyone with a mind knows that the GOP no longer values country over greed.

Beats me.
I stopped watching most "news" a while back. The only time I see the "news" is during my lunchbreak. My employer has installed a telescreen (Allusion to G. Orwell intentional.) that stays tuned to FauxNews (And, I'm certian that's no coincidence.). Every now and then I might turn on CNN for a good laugh, and I have never watched MSNBC. Beyond that, it's the local news and that's it. Quit reading the paper and listening to talk radio years ago. I prefer to think for myself.
I wouldn't say Republicans are trying to "destroy America", that's rediculous.
But, I would say they are trying to destroy the notion of an America run by anyone but them, and, likewise, so are the Dems. And I, personally don't care for that. Single party rule is a very bad idea, regardless of which party has it.
So, anyways,
To reiterate, Beats Me.
So who was it, Pete?

Funny thing is I was just into six figure territory when W cut taxes, gave me enough extra every bi-monthly paycheck to buy a pack of Marlboros.

Got me Dave, I can't remember, but it sure made a splash. It was one of the old 'greats' though, Cronkite or someone.

Actually, the more accurate statement should have been:
"the Republicans have destroyed America."
