More Tax Deceptions

"We need a president who sees government not as a tool to enrich well-connected friends and high-priced lobbyists, but as the defender of fairness and opportunity for every American," Obama said in his June speech. "That's the kind of president I intend to be." But his actions do not conform with his words. Only one other 2008 presidential hopeful has introduced more tariff suspension bills than Obama. Longshot GOP candidate Sen. Sam Brownback, Kan., introduced 30 such measures in the 109th Congress. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. has introduced none.

Mcstupid and his bimbo wife have never worked for a living. Between them the own anywhere from 7 to 9 homes. Explain to me how they can feel the pain of someone losing the only home they own!!!

at no point did McCain lie... he just used imagery and didn't provide the whole story. That being said, it is not necessarily the most honorable campaign tactic, but it's not McCain's job to inform people about Obama's plan. And I guarantee you there has been questionable information in Obama ads as well.

On a more seperate point, I'm much more disturbed to discover that he is NOT planning on increasing taxes on these lower income households. In fact, he's going to be lowering them. Think about it for a moment. With all the increases in socialistic programs he is planning on, yet he refuses to raise taxes on the lower and middle classes. Who's going to pay for this? The upper class. And it is going to be a heavy burden on them seeing as 90% (approx.) of the tax revenue in this country comes from the middle class. There is going to be no drive whatsoever for success in this country, because once you achieve that level of income you're going to have a large percentage of it taken away. Obama punishes success, demonizes companies (especially oil companies) for making money. Again, sort of a segway, but the profits of oil companies should be celebrated, not chastied. Oil companies have some of the lowest profit margins in the country (something like 7 cents per dollar spent) and they are treated like thieves, when other sections of the economy earn as high as 70 cents to a dollar for every dollar spent. I'm going to put this very clearly, with Obama the economy is going to crash. Instead of looking forward to progress, Obama wants to make sure that when the economy crashes, we'll be completely ready with bankrupt socialist programs to help us out?

So, yes, McCain didn't sing Obama's praises for him. But ultimately he offers some good points for discussion to show us that Barack Obama is going to be the doom of our counrty.

Under Nixon and Ford, the United States built 100 nuclear power plants and American owned Westinghouse was the world leader in nuclear plant construction. In the last thirty years not a single nuclear power plant has been built in the United States. Today John McCain calls for the rapid expansion of forty-five new nuclear power plants. Obama wants to study the issue for another thirty years.

To me, this article seems deceptive. First, it is claimed that Obama's tax plan will not raise taxes on middle income families with income under $200,000. Then it represents that a single mother will not be affected that earns less than $58,650. This implies that one who earns more than this would see a tax increase. After all, if that single mother's tax were affected downward, it would have been trumpeted by this author. So which is it? Taxes increase after $200,000 or $58,650.
What seems clear is that Obama and Pelosi want to raise taxes. When they start paying for my children to go to college they can have my money. Until then, I don't care what kind of ads it takes to stop these people from dreaming up new programs to steal my money and my children's future and earnings.

When Obama's campaign stretches the truth in their campaign ads, we expect a full and honest fact check -- though I doubt we'll ever see anything like that. If you fight to stay neutral, your comments will be weighted accordingly.

The comments of John McCain about Obama tax proposals are not misplaced. Democrats have traditionally supported higher taxes for Americans and businesses. The effect of those taxes has been to put American companies out of business and drive them into bankruptcy. It is no accident that the American jewell Arco oil company is now owned by British Petroleum Company based in London. At one time American owned Arco Oil Company discovered and developed the Alaskan North Slope. Arco which owned 80 percent of our Alaska Oil Reserves was bought out by British Petroleum Corporation at the end of the Bill Clinton???s second administration due to the hostile Democratic attitude toward energy companies with demands for higher tax rates. It is no accident that the largest US builder of nuclear power plants, Westinghouse Nuclear Power Construction Division was bought out by Toshiba Corporation of Japan. Thanks to Democratic led energy and tax policies, now General Electric is the only US owned builder of nuclear power plants.

While 80 percent of France???s electricity is generated by nuclear power, only twenty percent in the US is generated due to the successful efforts of Democratic party to kill the US nuclear power industry. Significantly, nuclear power is not considered a mainstay of Democratic plans to address our energy crisis.

There is also a worldwide shortage and backlog of orders for oil drilling platforms and oil drilling ships but US shipyards are not building these ships. Only one percent of the world commercial ships are built in US shipyards. Hold your breath for the Democratic outcry and push for government help to US ship builders to build oil drilling ships in the US.

It's ironic and sad how McCain has been running such a disfonest campaign. I really hope that the American people see through his lies and distraction. I'm certainly sick of his ads already.
One of the most annoying points he makes is that Obama is an elitist. Really? McCain lives in a ranch and he and his wife are multi millioniares. They go around in private jet often enough. This is a clear worse case of the pot calling the kettle black. What an old fool he has become. I used to respect that guy.

Don't TV Networks have some responsibility to refuse to run false ads? If they don't, they should!

The once vaunted "maverick" has now become just another political who will tell lie after lie to get elected. MCain and his Bush/Rove campaign lackeys know that the tight popular vote polls are meaningless. Their concern is for electoral votes. The latest Rasmussen Reports Balance of Power Calculator currently shows now Obama leading in states with 210 Electoral College votes while McCain leads in states with 165 votes. When leaners are
included, it???s Obama 273, McCain 227. That's why the McCain slime experts
have to get deeper and eeper into the gutter.
