    Why does Obama support extending a tax that hits da Poor and Middle Class the hardest?


    A failure to pass the bill would result in an end to the fleecing of da Poor and MIddle Class at the gas pump........

    I think it's a case that Obama has to somehow,in whatever desperate
    fashion prove to Americans that Raising Taxes can be a good thing.
    Which is a Democrat Mantra.
    When the converse is patenly true.Lower taxes help Society and
    higher Taxes hurt society,but do however help Big Government.
    Obama is losing big time his repeated pleas to raise taxes.
    The Tea Party won big time last year on a No New Taxes pledge
    along with lower spending and job creation.
    A President can't create jobs,nor should be expected to.
    But since Obama ran under this messiah cloud as Saviour,he feels
    he can just say or deem something like Jobs and it will happen.He has
    been proven wrong.
    A President Can indeed make an economy more friendly to Job creators'
    by lowering their tax burden and lessing instead of Increasing Regulations.
    Obama had proven to be both a Fraud and a Joke.
    Again,his very first Executive Order was a sealing of ALL his personals.
    Now how Presidential is that.
    Plus the Mainstream media purposedly did not report it.
    We are being played for stooges.Like pawns in a chess match between
    2 KGB agents.

    Taxes on the Middle Class and da Poor are ok as long as a Democrat President is proposing it......even in these tough economic times.

    Clearly a $14 trillion deficit is beyond the purview of many Americans, if this site is anything to go by.

    Most appears to support a reduction in spending, as if that would reduce the deficit. Well, it might reduce it to zero, in 150 years maybe. A reduction in spending only reduces the speed at which the deficit increases so the way to bring it down is by increased taxation coupled by not spending that revenue. That could reduce it to 75 years maybe.

    Whichever way you look at it, your kids are screwed.

    As usual there is no story here. Unless you would like to turn I-95 into the world's longest gravel road.

    My dear friend from Canadia....

    We have a 14 Trillion Dollar National Debt......a 1.3 Trillion Dollar Budget Deficit........ The Most Expensive President in History--Barack HusSame Obama....and a Democrat Party that refuses to cut so much as a Cowboy Poetry Contest.

    We could cut 1.3 Trillion out of the budget tomorrow......and eliminate the entire deficit.

    Tha facts are simple and dynamic.Since taking Office Obama has managed
    to literally screw-up and make worse every doggone thing he and his
    Drat Democrats have touched.Exactly as I predicted.
    Because the formula is just as simple.
    Democrats don't fix squat.They just blame and smear and tinker
    with tradition and what works.They're feckless Boobs of the first order.

    Government losing needed money?

    Stop pissing it away, and you'd find you get enough already. Here, I can show you where you pissed away 500 million to possibly 2 Billion just as a single example in a sea of many more.


    Up to 2 Billion to create jobs.....in the Middle East??

    Honestly, the problem is plain for everyone with a shred of financial common sense to see. It's not that there isn't enough revenue to support your legitimate obligations.

    It's that you cannot cover your legitimate obligations, and keep playing big spender. Sorry...the people do not deserve to be further bilked of their earnings so the Government can play charity with it.

    Who could support letting Governments hand deeper into your pockets, so they can continue to do this?

    Obama has got to be the dumbest creature on this planet. He just cost real Americans millions of jobs with that back door amnesty BS.

    It not even fun anymore to criticize this goat anymore.

    Notice the libs posting here can only throw childish jibes and won't address just how bad raising the gas tax will hurt the low and middle income earners.

    They're working hard to get 'er done.

    All the Democrats want is more of the people's money... so they can spend it.

    Why not let the people keep their own money and determine how to spend it themselves? Democrats don't like people deciding for themselves. The Democratic Party has become the authoritarian statist party.

    Who says they have to be eliminated?

    Its a 4 trillion dollar government......maybe Democrats could find funding by dipping into The Cowboy Poetry Contest Fund.....albeit it would just break their hearts.....Democrats dont want 1 million Cowboy Poets going hungry......

    .......yeah stealing from da Poor and Middle Class is probably the best way to go--Thanks Democrats! Yes We Can Tax The Hell Out of Da Poor and Middle Class!

    Really? So I can't find another thread for instance, where you blamed the dems. for an increase in the amount of money you have to spend for taxes?

    I don't get it, according to the Democrats raising taxes gets the economy moving and creates jobs, now it will cost jobs? All of a sudden canceling tax cuts will hurt the economy and cost jobs. The Bush tax cuts, cut taxes across the board, even creating a new lower bottom rate, but that ruined the economy.

    The hypocrisy is amazing!

    I am not establishing it as the truth of the matter, I am establishing that it was said.

    You do realize that government makes more from the sale of a gallon of gas than the oil companies? Right?

    Ignorant or disingenuous spin.... What Obama is advocating is keeping the gas tax exactly the same.

    Other presidents have done exactly this. Extended the fed gas tax at the same level it's not a new tax it's not raising taxes, it is exactly the same. No change at all.

    But it's Obama, so continue the hysterics...
