OK, everyone, let's just all settle down.

There is a simple explanation for the president's proposal.

He is a troll.

The proposal is going nowhere, he just laid it out to get us all jacked up. And it worked like a charm. We all got very excited and started burning up our keyboards with responses.

Move along, nothing to see here.

Yes, that's exactly what is. Interesting premise.

You conservatives love to call Obama a race-baiter, and then you post sh*t like this.

People think that government doesn't have them on the radar. How wrong they are, government is just sneakier about it.
And the American middle class just sat there and let the high earners get hammered. This place is turning into France.

I think everyone should chip in to help the nations poor people.
It's not easy, fair, or fun, but its time for american middle class to pony up!
They are also helping their middle class brothers.
It's the hard working rich who provide jobs for them and puts food in their mouths.
The middle class would do well to remember that, and not bite the hand that feeds them.
I agree Obama is just providing rhetoric so the middle/lower class think he shares their pain...LOL!!!

It never ceases to amaze me how ordinary Americans will defend and carry water for a small group of Americans that don't give a f*ck about them.

LOL, President Obama the troll! You are right though. It's to get his base all excited thinking they are getting a handout. As we know, with Obama he doesn't have to do, all he has to do is speak and his base salivates.

Don't you read? The government takes money from the middle class, a little at a time .. it's sneaky. Instead of demanding lower taxes you demand higher taxes thinking it will not effect you. You're so naive and the cause of your own problem.

Obama is pretty sharp. The worker bees in America really believe he's on their side...lol.
Do you really think he would ever let his girls , Molika and Sasha, hang out with your kids?
