    Obama is getting desperate!

    As a compromise to Republicans, and a gesture of good will to millions of independent conservative voters, Obama has signed the bill to extend the Bush Tax Cuts!

    Why on earth did Obama do this?

    Have you read recently how many congressional Democrats in the House and Senate have announced they will not run for re-election?

    Obama was depending on these seasoned Democrats to bring their constituents to the polls and vote a straight Democratic ticket. But now Obama's hopes are “dashed” because these Democrats will no longer be on the voting ballots in November!

    Now that these seasoned Democrats are no longer available to support him, Obama must now rely on the "independent" voters like myself to help him win a very narrow victory when the outcome of the national election is determined in November!

    This is only reason Obama has decided to sign the bill and extend the Bush tax cuts! Obama is and always has been a pragmatist; he is not an idealist like many of the people in this group who blindly and religiously support liberal values!

    By doing this, did he sell out the liberals and the hard-core socialists in his political party? ... You betcha!

    Sounds like more of the same.

    America has not changed, and will never get fixed.

    The massess will save about $1200 in taxes every year.

    And the elite will save about 18% off their big fat money.

    Do the math if you have more than a 8th grade ability.

    You are taxed on $1200 more, and the rich are taxed $120,000 off each billion they make.

    You save squat, they save over a hundred thousand on their tax on each million. Fools.

    The message you wont see articulated as such, yet reinforced by his continued extensions is:

    "Bush was making the right moves"


    Hard pill to swallow eh Libs? Especially since the "bush tax cuts" have been maligned on these very boards more times that I can count.

    While we're at it, taking the extensions into account...can we now just call them the Obama tax cuts and let GWB retire?

    Obama will have the slow minded conservatives thinking tax breaks for the elite is a liberal thing.

    Good job Barry. You fooled them again. Turning conservative ideology into liberal policy.

    Ha-Ha!

    You are mistaken, mdrobster.

    The continuous and often repeated subject of the Bush Tax Cuts remains a very recent current event.

    In fact, the national debate over the Bush tax cuts has not lessened and it has not gone away.

    These discussions are meant to prepare you for when Obama will capitulate and once again sign the Bush tax cuts into law later this year!

    I admire Obama. He is and always has been a pragmatist; he is not an idealist like many in this group who blindly and religiously support and endorse liberal values.

    And as the two posts immediately above this one prove, they often don't bother reading prior posts in a thread before jumping in based on a completely disproven fact.

    Are you telling us that these forums are not full of posts from liberals lapping up and pouncing on whatever they read from a liberal source, without even the slightest amount of critical thought as to whether it is true or not?

    Where did I tell you anything like that?

    Feel free to point it out when you observe it.

    It seems you have a serious comprehension problem. In fact, it seems you don't even understand what a question is.

    But go ahead and show us where I asserted that you did. My post consisted of a single sentence that asked you if that was what you are telling us.

    I don't have a reading comprehension problem at all. Responding to my post, you wrote: "Are you telling us that these forums are not full of posts from liberals lapping up and pouncing on whatever they read from a liberal source, without even the slightest amount of critical thought as to whether it is true or not?"

    That implies that something I wrote gave you cause to ask that question.

    So my question, which you dodged: "Where did I tell you anything like that?"

    If you were just firing off a random question that had nothing to do with my post, then why did you quote my post, and why don't you start your own thread?

    You are indeed correct, f_socialism.

    Your comments are right on!

    This fellow is often quoted by the liberal establishment and he is usually wrong most of the time! He often becomes very incensed when people respond to his blogs with data that prove his conclusions are incorrect!

    I never asserted nor insinuated anything. I simply asked a question, but since you still dont get it, I'll dumb it down as though I was talking to a child. Why on earth were you making a point about something that liberals are just as guilty of if not more guilty of?

    I disagree with your statement. Why on earth are you trying to divert the thread which has once again shown how conservatives gullibly lap up whatever they read from a conservative source, without even the slightest amount of critical thought as to whether it is true or not.

    If you want to prove your contention that liberal are just as guilty of it then feel free to try do so.
