Nonsense in Nashville

I just love these "fact check" stories: Another chance for the over-the-edge liberal media to try desperately to "filter" (muddy) the one chance Republicans get to actually speak directly to the American people. It's always the Republican "was wrong" or "misstated" or "actually, it's nothing like X." The Democrat "didn't quite tell the whole truth" or "that's a stronger statement than he's made before" or "that's not entirely true." It's OK: Every one of these things we see just makes more of us move over to the McCain-Palin ticket. But wait, the liberals have an answer ready for that, too: "White people who simply won't vote for Barack because of race." Oh well, I guess we'll live them in exchange for the right to govern ourselves...

Let's face facts Amercians both sides of the coin are dirty... Both Rebublicans and Democrats have an agenda of their own and not of the American people... This country is for the people by the people and when government has become ineffective it is up to the people to dismantle the current government and start new...

Enough of this mud slinging Bull *** contest. The "debate last night was disgusting. Neither talked about present mess with any semblance of what created it, how do we fix it, but kept up steady drumbeat of finger pointing. Neither one of these idiots are fit to be President of their High School class let alone be President of this Country. For crying out loud, explain with honesty the situation, and then layout a full comprehensive plan to correct it. Speak specifics not sound bites and character assassination. We need Leadership, and that requires them to tell us the truth good or bad, and how we can bring our Country back from the brink of ruin. EXAMPLES would be. Bring our Manufacturing jobs back from over seas (outsourcing). Demand parity in the "free trade agreements", there is no way in Hell that our people can compete with over seas manufacturers who paid pennies on the dollar. STOP ALL paid Lobbyists, BAN THEM ALL TOGETHER. STOP all PORK/Sweeteners. FREEZE ALL spending. Set up a special prosecutor to investigate Congress and Financial wizards and bring crimminal charges. These are only for starters. How in good common sense can either candidate espouse further spending and tax cuts, when we as a Country flat out do not have it. Face it folks the FREE RIDE IS OVER, it is time for each of you to take personal responsibility for your actions. It is way past time that we as a unified populace tell Congress that we no longer require their self serving and incompetence. Regardless of party affiliation, do your homework and vote for the best person, not party, at Local, State and Nationally. I feel that regardless of who we elect, neither are actually morally fit to hold the Office of President of the USA. I'm sure we could randomly pick anyone out of the phone book and get better Leadership, and common sense than the total that has been exhibited so far by our "experienced Leaders".

Ltrabert: it is simple under John McCain proposal the employer will give you the $6300 that it previously had been paying to an insurance company plan. You will have tax on it with a marginal rate of fifteen percent depending on your bracket you will have to pay $945 federal tax which will give you a net of $5355. If you owe no federal tax liability your net will be the full $6300. Additionally you will get a $5000 tax credit which is not a deduction is dollar for dollar money at the end of your return. So you will have a total of $10,355 to buy health insurance under John McCain???s plan. You can still have the benefits of your employer???s group if you would choose to participate. The only difference is that the employer is giving you the money in this case and you make the payment. You can pay an employer sponsored group or get your own policy. The company can still sponsor a group, the only thing is that they will not be paying for each employee will be. The point is that you will not only have $5000 cash in the form of a credit, your employer will likely give you the $6300 it had previously paid an insurance company.
The final point in your case is that you have $10,355 worth of money to work with.

I was reading about The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism by Naomi Klein. While I don???t completely prescribe to the theory, it made me more wary of further Republican control and the opportunistic transfer of public wealth to the private sector (also seen with 9-11 and the Iraq War, Katrina, etc.).
Experts warn there will be more disasters/crisis to come. Then McCain spoke about his plan to buy bad mortgages--in addition to the bail-out plan already passed. This would represent a HUGE transfer of public funds to the private sector, because he's suggesting tax payes buy these bad mortgages from banks at the inflated price (i.e., at a loss) to allow the banks to refinance the loans at homes current values.

We must be vigilant. Enough of extreme free-market capitalism and greed that the Republican Party represents. The only hope for real change is to change the Party in control.

Obama is the Mulatto Kenyan Hawaiian "Howdy Doody" whose strings are pulled by Marxist; Malcolm X; Lewis Farakan; Hugo Chavez, William Ayers, Tony Rezko; Richard Daly, Rev. Jerimiah Wright; Barney Franks; Chris Dodd; and owned by his wife Michelle Obama.Obama will go down for the count in this fight and John McCain will stand over his prone body for effect.John McCain is winning and will be the next President of The United States of America and not this wanna-be African American Obama. McCain will win get used to it.
