YOU WERE WRONG.. and rather than just admit it, you want to sit here and play dumb..
Obama donated 25% of his income to charity. What % of income did Romney donate to charity?

ROFL...are you familiar with the concept of "marginal" tax rates? 39% is the top marginal rate, which is always higher than a taxpayer's effective tax rate.

LOL, it's like I said earlier in the thread. When it's a thread about the wealthy, they pay a lower rate than their secretary-OUTRAGE!
Then it turns out Obama pays 18% and all the sudden they are lecturing on effective tax rates. Hilarious.

I wonder if Harry Reid ever heard that Obama didn't pay any taxes for 10 years. Apparently he has good sources for these things.

So lets see if I understand the liberal kooks argument..

If we raise the marginal tax rate to 39%, to make you FEEL better, that would be ok, even though its obvious that no one pays this rate?

So tell me, whats the point of raising it again if no one will pay it?

Obama has never had to struggle, never had to work a low-wage job.

Neither does anyone else in politics, which is why the poor and the working class desperately need a political movement of their own. Poor people needed Dr King even more than black people, since other black leaders arose to continue the Dream, while nobody did the same for the poor.

It would be hilarious except that these same people are allowed to vote.
