I can't help but notice you provided no source for your claims of increased taxes? The larger point here is that Republicans are going to hang themselves by continuing to defend the actions of large corporations. Especially at a time when American distrust and disgust with the banks and corporations like BP are at an all time high. Good luck in November.

Math quiz.. If you cut $320B in taxes, and then raise them another $670B, is there a cut?

Thats because up until recently, Obama has been calling these things like fees, mandates, etc.. It wasnt till recently that Obama HIMSELF is now calling these a tax hike.. Maybe I'll email the list to the Cato Institute..

What ones of those dont exist? If your going to call something wrong, be prepared to defend why you think its wrong. Blanket claims of "it just cant be right".. doesnt count for much around here..

lets see who's disgusted more.. those who are upset with the GOP for supporting businesses which employ americans, help the economy, pay taxes, pretty much substain your standards of living, or those who do nothing but criticize, oppose, "shakedown", and legislate those same companies into not being able to hire more, to decrease the unemployment and help americans..

Given the choice, I pick helping americans.. But if you want to continue to harm americans.. thats your choice..

Unless you provide a source, your claims are nothing but that. Most Americans are paying less federal taxes than they have in 50 years. Now as far as future taxes those have yet to materialize and are no more factual than anything else you've had to say. I also never used the words " it just can't be right". Those are your words not mine. I guess we should consider the source.
