Why are they all so quiet?

Maybe Obama reads your posts here and is just picking on you?

Might I assume that SLCpunk assumes that everyone who claims to have a smaller paycheck in 2010 is a liar?

Who's a bigger fool.. Republicans that called for tax cuts before getting into a war, or Democrats that called for them knowing we not only were in wars, but expanding them with record deficits?

Well, anyone can claim anything on a message board...no one can verify it.

I can claim I make even more, I do actually from 403(b) increases and no tax increases, how are you going to prove me wrong?

Putting words in people's mouths is about all you'll ever have.

I'm asking why the rightwingoverse remains so silent if this were indeed true? They'd be all over this, along with the GOP.

My conclusions are based on two things:

1) Reality

2) That the posters in question (yourself included) have a history of being less than honest.

So, please. Somebody answer my question: If Obama has raised taxes on the middle class, why aren't the GOP making this their battle cry? Why has the Tea Party never uttered a word of it? Beck? Hannity? Rushie?

What?
Do you expect someone here to scan an image of their check stub to prove it to you?
I started a thread in Employment, at the 1st of the year, asking other salaried workers if they had seen a lower paycheck.
Where were you, calling me a liar, then?
