I know, but since Geithner was the only one who spoke this weekend, and you were giving credence to what "those in the administration" said this weekend, I said I was pleased that you give credence to Geithner. Thazz all.
Fair enough. Actually, I heard Larry Summers. I read about Geithner later. I didn't intend to give credence to anyone in particular, but it was what they said that triggered Gibbs to make his comments. I was responding to his assertion that Obama has been clear.
Not when you pay $13,000 a year in property tax or $3000 a year in car insurance alone forget everything else. So no it is NOT rich when you are living in NYC or NJ.
Isn't there endless threads by you guys saying that people CHOOSE to buy a house they don't need, or live a life they can't afford? Now you are defending it.

What?
I am talking about how $250,000 is not rich if you live in the Northeast and you transform that in your mind to not being able to afford my house.
"The president's clear commitment is not to raise taxes on those making less than $250,000 a year,''
Gibbs told reporters pressing for an explanation about apparent discrepancies in the White House's message.
"I hope you'll take my reiteration of this clear commitment... in the clearest terms possible, that he is not
raising taxes on those who make less than $250,000 a year,'' Gibbs said.
Maybe not income tax but they will raise taxes in a roundabout way. They have no choice. It is simple math, you cannot spend as much as they are and recieve as little revenue they recieve during this reccesion. But most people are not smart enough to see that, so believe what you want.
He's committed to it. They know they're out in 2010 and -12 if they cant stick to it. Believe me, they'll stick to it.
Read my lips "No New Taxes"....yeah right.
Either Obama is forced to raise taxes before the elections and they are out, or somehow they cook the books and raise taxes after the elections. Either way they WILL raise taxes on the middle class.
How else will they pay for this ORGY of spending? Washington has created a bubble in the federal spending that is going to burst soon.
A senator said: "You cannot decrease healthcare cost at the same time you are increasing coverage. It's an oxymoron".
Obama knows he CAN NOT do the things he is doing without taxing everybody who pays taxes. If he really does think that, then our country is in much more trouble than I could have ever imagined.
