Here is one thing about BHO.

As president he has failed to get the American economy going.

Because he focused on HC and not the economy he made the majority of Americans mad eoungh to turn his party out of the House and to cut deeply into their majority in the Senate. THIS is what gave republicans footing to oppose Obama on any number of fronts.

THAT is the point. Mr. Obama had cart blanch to do whatever he wanted to right America's economic ship in 2009. The efforts he took failed. Then he abandoned all efforts to focus on Obamacare.

THIS is why no one should vote for him. He failed America. He needs to be turned out.
IMO...I also feel that alot of what we the people are mad about concerning the HCL....aka Obamacare... is how it is about so much more than just healthcare....how the whole bill was not allowed to be reviewed before being voted on. Transperancy is pretty much non-existant in this administration.

In an interview (not a speech), he said he isn't concerned about the very poor because they have a safety net. He also said that he isn't concerned about the rich because they're doing fine. He said he was most concerned about the middle class because they're the ones who have been affected the most by the economic downturn.

His tax plan includes reducing tax rates for EVERYONE...not just the rich. His plan also includes eliminating some deductions. While there might be some people who would pay slightly more in taxes under his plan, they pay very little in taxes - if anything - as it is. The vast majority of taxpayers - yes, including those in the middle class - would get a significant tax cut from his plan.

Everyone else's taxes would not go up $750.

And the idea is that the tax cuts would spur economic growth so that they wouldn't cost the country anything. Also, cutting some of the deductions would result in more revenue. And Romney plans to cut spending.

You are too funny.

Re-read your post...you just said that he will cut a lot of programs and then have to raise taxes to pay for them. Do you understand what you said? You said that programs that are cut will have to be paid for!?!?!
