Surely you can do better than this. Your information is completely inaccurate and your demonstrating a complete lack of knowledge.

btw, the second excerpt in that was not from the blog, but can be found in various news articles, as it's a quote, second paragraph below...

Democrat Barack Obama says he would delay rescinding President Bush's tax cuts on wealthy Americans if he becomes the next president and the economy is in a recession, suggesting such an increase would further hurt the economy.

"I think we've got to take a look and see where the economy is. I mean, the economy is weak right now," Obama said on "This Week" on ABC. "The news with Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, I think, along with the unemployment numbers, indicates that we're fragile."

that's from the star tribune in minn/st paul minnesota.
the reason i posted what i used to google was so that if anyone else wanted to check out the results, they could do so without me having to put stuff here. so go google it if you so desire. or not.

I knew there must be a reason.

yeah, another blog, but maybe the latimes is a bit more respected? at any rate, apparently my husband and i are RICH. i'm thrilled.

Again, I must reiterate, a blog is not a reliable source of facts. Basically, if you can't find a link to an actual "article" then most likely it hasnt (d a m n apostrophes) been verified as FACT.

Again, in case somehow you still don't understand:

Blog or column: opinion of writer

Article: verified fact

I won't give up on you Danzig.

I just got lost in threads.

Where is CP's post?






I must be right...I'm losing my mind.

I dug around and found your wonderful source of knowledge and enlightenment (did I spell that right?). In the future, you would be wise not to pass off a "column" as an "article". Surely that mistake is more egregious (sp?) than subsituting Your for You're (especially when i used your earlier in the same sentence).

In case anyone wanted the link to the "column". In case you didn't know, Danzig, a "column" is a reflection of the writer's opinion. A news article should just be fact.

if you would be so kind, go back to where i posted the first excerpt and tell me where i wrote 'news' or 'column'. you inferred i used it as news, and have gotten on a pretty high horse as a result.

[Danzig]

here, so you don't have to go back and find it, i cut and pasted it:

this is from yesterday, i googled 'barack obama bush tax'. this came up first on the list...an excerpt:

Obama has change of heart about Bush tax cuts as polls favor McCain

By Ross Balano, Midwest Voices Columnist 2008

Democrat presidential candidate Barack Obama had a change of heart yesterday about one of his major campaign issues; the Bush Tax Cuts.

The Associated Press quotes Obama as now saying that “he would delay rescinding President Bush's tax cuts on wealthy Americans if he becomes the next president and the economy is in a recession, suggesting such an increase would further hurt the economy.”

Two things struck me about this comment.

First; he uses the term increase. This is the first time I’ve heard him admit that rescinding the Bush cuts would in reality be a tax increase.

Second; he admits that an increase would hurt the economy.

For about as long as he has been running for president, which seems like forever, Obama has been preaching the woes of the Bush Tax Cuts. For those of you in Alma, those are the tax cuts pushed through congress by President Bush that Obama and fellow Democrats claim were “tax breaks for the rich” and are “shrinking the middle class.” Repealing that work of the evil Bush administration was “job one.” So why the change of heart?

Totally misrepresented and taken out of context. Read the whole article.

On top of that, you should watch the whole interview on youtube.

If you think Republicans are on your side in economic matters, then you really shouldn't bring up the word intelligent. If you were against abortion, wanted prayer in school, and wanted vouchers for kids to have the choice to go to private schools, then you would make a lot more sense. Atleast you would know why you routinely vote against your own best economic interests. Economically, you think like most of the necks around you. You don't agree with their social values, but on economic matters you're as backward as they are. You're out of place there, and you would probably feel a little out of place with people who embrace your particular social values. They don't square up. That's why you can't find anybody to support whole-heartedly in elections. Most people aren't like you.

i don't think anyone is on my side. those folks only say/ do what they think will get them elected. my best bet economically is for the govt to stay the hell out of my pocket. i pay federal and state income tax, and then property tax, and also personal property tax. on top of that, sales tax in most communities here is 10.5%. it's ridiculous. as is the fact that pulaski county schools (for example) pay over 5k per year PER STUDENT to the school district. where do they get all that? wouldn't vouchers and private school work better? and if thinking everyone should go to work (like i do) and pay for themselves (like i do) and not think social security can be relied on someday when the time comes, then i guess i am backward. so be it.
but i sure would appreciate if you give me another example of a social program i pay for that helps my quality of life.

Like a true Predator, I'm giving off the appearance I'm softening up.

Sneaky.....I like it.



I was reading the selections room heated exchange as well. I think round 3 is about to start.

so, his own quote is wrong? i love that 'taken out of context' thing, it must be the politicians number one sentence used.

I posted the link to the "blog" earlier. And the article isn't even complete. But taking just what is in the actual article, you can see where your "blog" doesnt tell the story. You should look at the interview.

Even if we're still in a recession, I'm going to go through with my tax cuts," Obama said. "That's my priority."

Again, factcheck.org
