I don't want my taxes to go up, which they will do if Obama becomes President.

In any event, I always vote Republican.

Democrats are the children and Republicans are the parents.

Unfortunately, we children have just had to shut the folks back in the Home. Sad, but they soiled all the beds, pooped on the carpets and developed a bad case of Alzheimer’s.

We know the latter because while they were loose they forgot who everyone was, got into pissy fits with most of Europe (and they didn’t bring along their Depens), numbly fondled the concept of war and out-taxed all administrations in the history of the US. Oh, and Cheney had a bout of confusion and forgetfulness, bless his wrinkled soul. :D

O'Bumma admitted he would raise taxes on boatloads of people.

He plans to raise the capital gains tax from 15% to 28%. In the debate with Billary for the Pennsylvania primary, he was told that 100 million Yanks own stock, so he will be raising their taxes. O'Bumma reportedly had no good reply.

Then also in the same debate, O'Bumma was reminded that he will raise the payroll or social security taxes by increasing the upper limit of income taxed from $97k to $1xx thousand. O'Bumma said that he had to pay for healthcare somehow and acknowledged raising taxes.

All this even before he thinks of ways to raise income taxes as well. He will be an income and wealth redistributionist.

His healthcare plan reportedly will cost taxpayers $85 billion/yr. Does this include giving heavily subsidized healthcare to illegal aliens and their kids? Stay tuned.

Forget healthcare. Any president elected has to raise taxes. We have to raise taxes outrageously in order to pay for the republican credit card debt in the Muslim American War.

Raising taxes is no longer a democratic stigma. The cause of rising taxes thru 2050 will be the GWB folly in getting us into this f***ing quagmire. Who among us was so stupid as to think that that debt did not have to be repaid?

The debt will never be repaid. Ten trillion dollars is just too much. No President of either party will have the political will to both raise taxes and cut spending to repay the debt. Yanks are spoiled and have been living beyond their means.

What will happen eventually is that the US economy will have to have high inflation so that the debt will effectively be worth less, otherwise the economy won't be able to function. But of course, many say that inflation is the cruelest tax of all.

Hillary has won Kentucky.

I just noticed that Obama has won all of the so called "deep south" states. I hope this will curb the comments about the "deep south" being racist. I doubt is though. :cry:

You mean "if Hillary has her way a war with Iran."

And you mean "if Obama has his way soon higher taxes."

I do note that Hillary won your state, Kentucky. :D

This is Hillary's strongest argument for the Democratic Party nomination:
    "The states I've won total 300 electoral votes. If we had the same rules as the Republicans, I would be nominee right now," she said. "We have different rules, so what we've got to figure out is who can win 270 electoral votes. My opponent has won states totaling 217 electoral votes."
The 270 electoral vote reference is to what is required to win the Presidency in the general election.

O'Bumma blamed bloggers and Fox news for his 35 point loss in Kentucky. Pretty lame excuse.

Maybe it had something to do with his "rural" America comment. KY is basically a 'rural' state with 'simple folk'.

Yes, but Shrillary is talking about including Michigan. Obama did not even run in Michigan because it was an illegal primary. That's not democracy. Shrillary and her dufus husband want to change the rules in mid-stream. :roll:
