Obama lowered taxes..not raised them.

[Sallow]

No one can claim a President did not raise taxes until the final result of his policies are completed.
Anything else is disingenuous.

I just did.

And posted an article to support what I posted.

So far I've seen nothing but things that "might" happen because of the sunsetting of the unfunded Bush tax cuts..the ones he implemented..then started two unfunded wars.

And a bunch of others things labeled as taxes are aren't taxes.

Obama cut taxes.
The deficit from 2009-2010 has gone down.
We are winding down our involvement in Iraq.
The federal payroll has shrunk by 350k employees.

What are you guys complaining about again?
-Big Government.
-Big Spending.
-Deficits.

The Federal payroll has not shrunk, except for census workers.

Conservatives have been claiming that Obama is "about to" raise taxes for the last 2 years.

None of this has happened yet. The Bush tax cuts for people making less than 200,000 a year will be extended by a lame-duck session. 98% of Americans will not see a tax increase on 1/1/11.

no, what they will see is a decrease in income as those making over $200K wont be able to afford to PAY them

And expanding layoffs.

Posting "hasn't" and "except" in the same sentence?

I thought you guys liked absolutes. Nuance is for people who speak French.

Not that anyone's really talking about it..but..

It is not a rhetorical question. At Pig Pickin’ and Politickin’, a barbecue-fed rally organized here last week by a Republican women’s club, a half-dozen guests were asked by a reporter what had happened to their taxes since President Obama took office.

“Federal and state have both gone up,” said Bob Paratore, 59, from nearby Charlotte, echoing the comments of others.

After further prodding — including a reminder that a provision of the stimulus bill had cut taxes for 95 percent of working families by changing withholding rates — Mr. Paratore’s memory was jogged.

“You’re right, you’re right,” he said. “I’ll be honest with you: it was so subtle that personally, I didn’t notice it.”

Few people apparently did.

uh, reducing the rate of withholding is NOT cutting taxes
you will still have to PAY those same taxes on April 15th
and you'll have LESS paid in to cover them

^Yep.

You seem to be assuming that the Democrats will let all the Bush tax cuts expire, which of course is not true.

No Congress just adjourned, went home without a budget either.

Conservatives run, thrive and breed on fear. They LOVE to be afraid and to scare others.

Conservatives are the opposite of "the home of the brave" mentality that we are so proud of in the USA. Conservatives live in the home of the cowards.

census workers are temp anyway
so saying they hired them and then let them go after the job was done is NOT a reduction in force

And after the election, they'll be back and the tax cut extention is on the agenda.

But don't let me stop you in your spreading of the fear, my good conservative.

 

[Revere]

Why didn't they do it when it made the most sense politically?

Because they won't do it.

Ok, tell me which issues democrats use fear to get votes.

Here are the ones conservatives use:

"If you vote for the Democrats, we will be attacked again".

Democrats will raise your taxes.

Democrats will have the government pay for partial birth abortions.

Democrats are socialists/marxist/communist.....

bla bla bla.

the democrats are good at spreading fear

The middle class tax cuts won't be extended, and their sycophants here will defend it.

Count on it.

You don't know why they didn't do it?

Seriously?

They didn't do it because the Republicans filibustered it and the Democrats don't have 60 votes. If the Republicans would stop filibustering everything the Democrats could pass stuff with the normal 51 votes.

Are American conservative voters really so uninformed about how congress works these days?
