Obama on Tea Partiers: “You would think they would be saying, ‘Thank you’” for my tax cuts. (unemployment, gallon)

[Joe_Ryder]

Obama's tax cuts are about equivalent to credit card debt.

Campaigning rhetorical excess is pretty standard, and both sides could not stand to a word by word review.

So, from my understanding, SCHIP bill isn't taxing your family or increasing your income tax, your payroll tax, or your capital gains tax - which are the tax issues most are concerned with and effected by.

So where were you the previous 8 years? Oh that's right, you must have been watering the G.W. Bush Money Tree...

Which brings up the question...'where were you the previous 8 years?'

PorkBusters organized, complained, lobbied and tried to reduce congressional spending. If you're not aware of the PorkBusters then you weren't paying attentioin. If you weren't paying attention, you don't have a question.

PorkBusters... look it up.

When Bush left office we each owed 56k for our share of the debt in 2020 we will each owe over 170k according to the cbo

So yeah I'd take what I owed when Bush was in office over what I'm going to owe when Obama leaves office.

Remember how much democrats complained about the debt Bush left. You will be wishing for that debt before its over

Link??

I somehow get the feeling you are purposely leaving out the fact that most of the 2009 budget was from Bush.

Serious question: Can someone please point out how much of a tax cut that an individual received from Obama? Anyone remember?

$400 for individuals, $800 for a couple.

Thanks!

According to my math, thats ~$15 per two week paycheck for an individual. On the nationwide/macro level, that adds up to alot of money. But on the individual/micro level, does the President really expect people to recognize such a small amount - to the point that he'd actually feel compelled to brag about it?
