Yeah, they complain about 120,000 in taxes going to 143,000. So, instead of 380,000 to get by on, they will only have 357,000. Oh, how will they manage.

If that is the case lets just say no one can make over 150k per a year. What would happen to our economy.

"Skippy" is the state of the record that plays in your brain, it hits a glitch and goes back to square one to replay the same tired song.

Speaking of the same tired song, how many jobs did the Bush tax cuts for the rich create?

You don't debate. I've read your posts. You're a classic debater who gets backed into a corner and begins a personal attack. It's better to baffle with BS, than to argue the facts. So tell us who is really the base of all the Fannie and Freddie debacle? If you say anything but the complete a total failure of Dodd and Frank to control their own camps, you're a liar. Shall I post a link for you to view them lying to the Dept. of the Treasury?

You should focus your angst on those most to blame.

_snip_

Federal housing data reveal that the charges aren't true, and that the private sector, not the government or government-backed companies, was behind the soaring subprime lending at the core of the crisis.

Subprime lending offered high-cost loans to the weakest borrowers during the housing boom that lasted from 2001 to 2007. Subprime lending was at its height from 2004 to 2006.

Federal Reserve Board data show that:

* More than 84 percent of the subprime mortgages in 2006 were issued by private lending institutions.

* Private firms made nearly 83 percent of the subprime loans to low- and moderate-income borrowers that year.

* Only one of the top 25 subprime lenders in 2006 was directly subject to the housing law that's being lambasted by conservative critics.

Oh please, Bush Jr. got caught in the "perfect storm" that started under Clinton's NAFTA go ahead. That's right, all those jobs that could be done on the cheap in other countries got the "green light" with Bill Clinton's signature. Bush couldn't stop that snowball effect any better that Obama can. Face it, the world has caught up and can produce products for a lot less. Oh so you think Obama is going to bring those jobs back, well he's not going to AND HE'S KEEPING NAFTA TO BOOT. Obama's tax cuts for idiots like you is sure gonna get the economy surging with all them high paying jobs (I'M STILL WAITING FOR YOUR HIGHEST WAGE EARNER, THOSE CRICKETS YOU WERE HEARING WAS FROM YOUR OWN LACK OF RESPONSE). Boy of boy, those government jobs that produce "nothing" are sure gonna get the salaries of middle class workers revved up too, right?

Come on, full of yourself Becky, let's hear about all the high paying jobs you support. The biggest laugh is on you dip$hit, seeing how you pose the question of where are all the jobs created by the tax breaks, soon you'll be questioning the larger job loss when those tax cuts expire.

"Skippy" is the state of the record that plays in your brain, it hits a glitch and goes back to square one to replay the same tired song.

Sigh, probably.

C'mon... you right wing wackos are all androids, you can't fool us anymore. Your irrational fears give you away as the cowards you are... tin hat wearers... irrelevant and proven liars who have cried wolf ten too many times. Your fairy tale is over wingnuts. You should display your shame in private... it's kinda embarrassing watching you debase yourselves like this in such a public forum. The republican party is dead by its own hand.

ps My family drives cars made by GM, my brother writes the computer programs for cars and works in the "drive-train' division (which just suffered major cuts, my brother survived, but some brilliant computer scientists got escorted out by security) and the biggest farce of all is that I see Obama stickers on foreign made cars all the time, how's that for being a pal to the "middle class worker" in the U.S.A.

You think all that happened as a result of just the last 100 days? You know why we always tyalk about Bush? Because you righties want everyone forget about the eight years that Bush ran us into the ground, half that time with a Repub majority, and you want to pin everything on Obama. Well, sorry, we aren't going to let you. You righties are going to take your share of the blame for the mess the conutry is in whether you want to or not.
