RO in Reno (aka dumba$$) the democrats under Tip Oneil forced Reagan to accept moving the SS trust monies to general funds in/as part of the exchange for the Reagan Tax plan which resulted in stopping jimmy carters 21% prime interest rates, inflation above 10%, employment skyrocketing, 55 mph travel nationwide and gasoline lines for drivers WHEN THEY COULD FIND GASOLINE,,,,,,,,,,,,,

RO (aka dumba$$) tell the rest of the printed story ,,,,,,,,you are as bad as politicians shaving the truth to fit their need,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

,,,,,,,,,greenspan said tax cuts will need spending cuts along with them to work.

While there is so much concern about McCains Tax cuts, First of all Greenspan just came out with a statement that said they will not work, Seems they amount to $3 trillion for the wealthy.

At the same time McCain will effectively eliminate both Medicare and Social Security.
But what is interesting is the $3trillion, The reason Social Security is in such trouble is because Reagan deregulated it and allowed the Government to "barrow" the SS funds, needless to say they had to get the money from somewhere for those earmarks, But it is estimated the US Government owes $3.8 trillion.

This piece of crap would let the elderly starve rather than try to make SS work, and he was in the House when Reagan pulled this incredible rip off.

"Comment: What scares me most about this Election is the fact that the cards are stacked against McC & Palin."

Yes John it seems close now but in another month McCain/Palin is gone and it???s not that the cards are stacked against them its because they tried to stack the deck.
It's their own doing, the media is taking them to task for the ads which are so filled with lies it is pathetic.
This country simply cannot handle another lying administration, we deserve better.

Believe and live the Ten Commandments......Thou shalt not bear false witness.

This is not good for Obama. Like King the Blacks may see him worth more as a martyr. Personally I prefer seeing him drown in his own ur1ne.

???The truth is Obama???s so-called comprehensive TAX PLAN is mostly gonna hurt the folks making $250,000 and above.Are correct higher tax's may contribute to inflation, but it hasn't worked for Nixon, Reagan or Bush it translated to unemployment which itself contributes to inflation due to a depressed consumer base.???
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Obama is lowering tax???s as you indicated is a good thing only he's lowering tax' on the working folks, even eliminating tax's on seniors making less than $50,000.
Now thats an idea whose time has come, not just because they supported this country for 40 years or more paying tax's.
But there must be millions of seniors making less than $50,000, a friend who makes just over $40,000 paying $3000 in tax.
If she had no tax the $3000 would be spent as a consumer and given the millions of such people, would by themselves spur the economy, adding jobs to supply the goods and create tax payers to support those wealthy people you are so concerned about.

But while you are worried about the poor mistreated wealthy, I think it is time to worry about the greater number of people in America.

NO TAX FOR THE ELDERLY???..VOTE OBAMA

"PALIN IS HILLARY'S GIFT TO OBAMA"
By Toby Harnden

- - - page 1 of 3

Spare us the instant Hillary Clinton nostalgia. Half of the Democratic party seems to have persuaded itself that the former First Lady would have been cruising to an effortless victory by now had primary voters shown the wisdom to select her as their nominee.

Even many of those who remain intensely loyal to Barack Obama are beginning to rue the day he decided not to pick her as his running mate. Clinton and her sisterhood of traveling pantsuits, they fret, would have sewn up the female vote, reassured rural white men and doubled down on this year's election theme of change.

Republicans who spent several years salivating at the prospect of facing a polarizing candidate with more baggage than Heathrow airport, an unfavorability rating hovering around 50 per cent and the persona of the archetypal calculating politician now hail her as a gutsy heroine callously cast aside by Senator Obama.

Of course, most of the new conservative love for Clinton is tactical. By lauding the senator for New York, they undermine Obama and highlight her case - which looks more compelling by the day - that he could not defeat John McCain. The old adage that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend", Republicans calculate, should hold true until November 4th.

We will never know whether Clinton would have beaten Senator McCain, though there are powerful reasons to be skeptical about her camp's conviction that victory would have been a certainty. But while she may not have beaten Obama in the primaries, she may well have sown the seeds for his defeat in 52 days time.

It's not just that Clinton continued to battle for the nomination beyond the point at which her winning became impossible and the major political damage to the Illinois senator became inevitable.

The crucial point is that if it wasn't for Clinton, Sarah Palin - who now could well become America's first female president whether or not McCain wins the White House - would have remained in relative obscurity in Alaska.

The New York senator knew that Obama would never choose her to be his running mate. Even if he'd asked her, she might well have refused. Her looming presence, however, spooked Obama into playing it safe with his vice-presidential pick.

Again and again, Clinton supporters made clear that for him to choose another woman to be on the ticket would cause uproar in Hillaryland. Obama was inclined

The "lipstick on a pig" slip-up was no more intended to be sexist or demeaning than his ill-judged "likeable enough, Hillary" quip in the New Hampshire primary debate. But it illustrated once again the perils of a rookie on the national scene jousting with a female politician who has passionate supporters and is poised to make history.

It's folly, of course, for Obama to be engaging with Palin. It diminishes him by equating him with the number two on the other ticket. And far from neutralizing the question mark over his experience, the discussion of her qualifications has ensured that his thin resume will remain front and center.

Obama should be giving Palin a good ignoring while his campaign hammers away at her record and McCain's linkages to President George W. Bush - not his vetting process (a Beltway preoccupation of no relevance beyond whether it missed anything damaging) or her family.

Clinton has made clear she won't be attacking Palin. And why should she? A McCain-Palin victory would make Clinton the Democratic front runner in 2012. It would vindicate everything she said about Obama during their primary battle.

Palin, and what picking her telegraphed about McCain, could be Obama's nemesis. Hillary Clinton brought us Palin. The Alaska governor is her gift to Obama.

One concern/question on Obama is this.,,,,,,,,,Is he like David Duke with one public face and once the publics gone the hood comes out and goes on??? ,,,meaning does Obama truly want to unite America or after 20 years of "G*#damn America",,, the chickens have come home to roost for the American terrorism of the world,,,," is Obama just parading a public face and once the public is gone the angry african-american Africa first comes out ,,,,,,,,,

Another is does it make sense to have the government redistribute wealth??? Thought that was the job of the free American.

Bush was a party animal and at the bottom of his class when he graduated from college. McCain was party animal and 5th from the bottom of his class when he graduated from the Naval Academy. Both are "shoot first, think last" ex-alcoholics.

Why do Americans continue to scrape the bottom of the barrel when considering Presidents. Yet smart, intelligent and thoughtful nominees like Gore, Kerry, and Obama are discarded.

The American intelligence is now called into question.

SARAH PALIN CAUGHT IN ANOTHER LIE . . .

News Reporters Peter Hamby and Rebecca Sinderbrand just reported the following:

"Sarah Palin did not visit troops in Iraq, a spokesperson for the Republican VP nominee confirmed Saturday, as new details emerged about the extent of the Alaska governor's foreign travel".

"(In addition) . . . campaign aides confirmed reports that Palin's time in Ireland on that trip had actually been a re-fueling stop" . . . (not for international business transactions as earlier reported).

I AM SO HAPPY WITH THE MAINSTREAN MEDIA . . .

Not because they are digging up dirt, which they are not. (Leave that to the tabloids). But because the media has honorably taken up the responsibility to do the job McCain's organization has purposely and "effectively" left undone.

McCain is the oldest Presidential nominee to run for POTUS, but he has constant bouts with cancer. Extra effort should have been done to ensure the Republican V.P. was thoroughly vetted to be POTUS in case McCain never made it to the swearing in ceremony.

McCAIN'S JUDGMENT AND WISDOM MAKES HIM "NOT QUALIFIED" TO BE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF. McCAIN HAS PUT POLITICS AHEAD OF THE NATION'S INTEREST. AND NOW McCAIN IS EFFECTIVELY COMPOUNDING BUSH's DISASTER WITH HIS OWN DISASTER.

Barack Obama is an angry black man now that he is not the media's darling, and panic is showing on his face. The McCain/Palin pair of Mavericks are the one's who will bring REAL CHANGE to Washington. McCain has a record of working bipartisan and Sarah Palin has a high approval rating as Governor of Alaska. Sarah Palin also did fine in her interviews and seems to be completely genuine unlike the phony Barack Obama. I'm thinking Obama's numbers are going to decline further. The general election is not a caucus . Obama's lack of experience, ego and arrogance will bring him down. NOBAMA
