Mitt Romney made two claims about his tax plan that deserve scrutiny: That it would not lower the tax burden on upper-income households and would not add $5 trillion to the debt over the decade. Source
The final paragraph of the story to which you link notes;
Quote:
Tax reform can also grow the economy by encouraging capital formation and promoting the proper allocation of capital across the economy. Romney’s plan will do just that," wrote Alex Brill, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, in a defense cited by the Romney campaign.
The Tax Policy Center report did not account for economic growth, and such estimates among economists can vary.
Mr. Romney was very clear that he expects his tax plan to encourage and promote growth. Why so many of his critics want to ignore that, and simply lower tax rates to current economic activity, is beyond me.
Romney did a good job of getting out his basic philosophy tonight, but failed in the objective (if he ever had it) to provide details. He also failed miserably in the other objective I had heard which was to come across as personable. He did rather the opposite, appearing rude and combative. Obama did not do himself any favors, but he did not have to.
Keep lying to yourself if it makes you feel better, but we all know the truth, and so do you...
Now I see why you think obama is winning, you have to two guys mixed up. obama is the transparent one, you can see the $hit through his skin, makes him appear black....
Nice joke, did you get it from Stormfront?
White Power!!!!!
Proves that one of the biggest reasons you dislike Obama is because of his skin color. You admitted yourself.
I really don't think this is a game change at all. Obama's response was faint, but Romney put too many false claims and center-shiftted position that Obama may think he is too sneaky to be attacked. Romney won his debate skill but lost in factual checking, though Obama may have a couple of factual errors too.
Actually, Obama is doing fine with body language. He's not moving around much, he has his arms and hands under control he's not looking down except when he's writing notes, he's looking Romney and the moderator in the eye, sometimes he looks directly at the camera to make a point, and he's staying calm--he's speaking slowly and in a modulated tone. Just what is it about his body language that you think is a problem?
That coward never looked Romney in the eye. He had his eyes turned down the whole debate. He was lost from the word g and wishing he was anywhere else but there.. total failure in every respect, as he has been for four years
Romney's zinger nailed the little fairy dead center...
So your insults toward Obama have gone from attacking his skin color to suggesting he is gay.
Why not throw in the Muslim insult and make it a teabagging trifecta, racist, homophobic, and anti-Muslim
