Obama Panders Middle Class Tax Cuts

[Gideonprime]

now to the right on this site doing what will help the vast majority of Americans and will help the economy is pandering?


jesus can they get any more craven?

They just long for the good old days of rabber barons and poor houses.

That's when everything was better. Just ask them they'll tell you.

They read it in an Ayn Rand novel.

Oh yeah this has never been on Obama's radar bofore . . .Oh wait, yes it has. Repeatedly.

All the rightists want to do is protect their billionaires, you know the job creators who don;t seem to be creating too many jobs . . .well not here in teh USA at least. Plenty going elsewhere, thank you free trade!

No, trust us

Really

If you cut taxes on job creators they REALLY, really will create jobs this time

Trust us

Well all the teax cuts were unfunded.

So if the cuts for the rich did damage so too would the one's for the Middle.

Tax cuts are neither funded nor unfunded.

I love how you guys think this, and how you think any and all spending can be cut at any time for any reason.

You are making a strawman argument, replete with a bifurcation logical fallacy.

You have failed.

When has Obama ever said middle class tax cuts caused the Great Recession?

Nice sound bite.

Too bad he never mentions the tax cuts for the middle class.

With 85% of said tax cuts affecting those making under $250K, it speaks for itself.

Obama to push extension of middle-class tax cuts | Financial Headlines | Comcast

President Barack Obama is launching a push to extend tax cuts for the middle class, as he seeks to shift the election-year economic debate away from the dismal jobs market and toward the issue of tax fairness.



Obama ,a mans man, he now tries to deflect his miserable record , at this point I would vote for Charlie Brown if it would remove this guy from office...

Eww, I blame the Right. But fer srs man, hyperpartisan tactics used and abused by the Conservative party has forced Dems to pivot to the more extremes in order to match Rs turnout.

Not the Republican party's fault at all, because there is no republican party. I don't consider these TEA-party conservative morons legit, old-school Republicans whatsoever.

I give it maybe 8 more years before the public calms down and returns to their senses, then we won't have to see or hear about people such as Sarah Palin, or Eric Cantor anymore. (and good riddance)

Tax cuts are neither funded nor unfunded.

Sure they are..

If you cut taxes without a proportional cut in spending, it is unfunded
If you cut taxes and cut an equivalent amount of spending, it is fundd

Obama has always pushed for middle class tax cuts.
It is the Republicans who have blocked them in their zeal to protect tax cuts for billionaires

The Republicans actually want to raise taxes on the poor while cutting them for the rich

Actually republicans have wanted to keep the bush tax cuts for everyone not just some people.

The fact that Bam Bam wants to keep the tax cuts for some and not others is indeed pandering.

Tax cuts don't have to be paid for or funded.

Spending requires funding letting people keep more of their own money requires no funding.

I need to buy your vote, I am really against this, but I could lose, damn principles, I am a democrat.

 

[Truthmatters]

no those tax cuts were designed to be temporary.

remember you fucking liar


they were supposed to be to help the economy after 911.

Now you fucking liars pretend they were intended to be there forever

the cuts are already in effect dodo.....so the years of trashing Bush for enacting tax cuts that fed the rich and left the middle and lower class out was all bullshit? wow, go figure

The Republicans actually want to raise taxes on the poor while cutting them for the rich

there are no taxs being raised,UNLESS they expire....

 

[mudwhistle]

You make it sound like Obama has never talked about tax "fairness" before. This ain't exactly new for him, ya know.

Talk is cheap.

BTW, this is a Bush program Obama says caused the poor economy. Why does he keep extending it?

When has Obama ever said middle class tax cuts caused the Great Recession?

When he called them tax-cuts for the rich
When he claimed they cost us $400 billion a year in lost revenue
When he claimed Bush policies caused the poor economy he inherited

 

[rightwinger]

The Republicans ar targeting the poor for tax increases in two ways

1. Running up the rhetoric on the unfairness of 47% do ot pay taxes
2.Advocating fat taxes that slash taxes on the wealth while raising them on the poor

You are confusing them with spending, which is funded or debt.

Split all the hairs you like.

Reality is that the money that those tax cuts represent had places to be spent in the government, you know like the wars and shrub's prescrition drug benefit program and the DHL etc, etc, etc.

It is not splitting hairs.

It is dispelling the Liberal Lie.

You can argue that tax cuts may or not be wise, but your revenue is not 'funded.'

Only your expenditures are funded or unfunded.

Bullshit!!!!

We haven't had an official budget passed in almost 4 years.

12%

Oh you need to go back further than that. How can you have an official budget when you are not counting the cost of the wars in the budget?

I think we are going back to clinton since we have had an offical budget.

 

[SniperFire]

shrub's prescrition drug benefit program and the DHL etc, etc, etc.

This statement is a good example of why Leftists are such assholes.

Hilarious.

Bush campaign promised a $120 billion prescription drug benefit.

The Democrats rejected it in Congress, demanding a $900 billion prescription drug benefit.

After much wrangling and demogoguing by Democrats, the Republicans finally relented and adopted Blanche Lincoln's (Democrat Senator) $400 billion prescription drug legislation.

As usual, the Republcians biggest failure was trying to compromise with Democrats, because as we see by leftwing losers, Republicans get blamed for it.
