Another false claim from the Right…

no it shows what a retard ‘John’ is.

Thanks for posting about this, I would like to read more about this topic.

Who better to redistribute???

Obama isn’t planning on raising the individual taxes of ~95% of the taxpayers

It is typical lib hypocrisy

yeah anyone with the name hussein is a criminal and we should ethnically cleanse the homelands of where these people live

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

We won, you lost….get over it.

People wanted any black dude in the office they’z got one! And that’s what happens when the gangstah’ rules.

Do what I say Not What I Do is the best description of those Democrats.

He doesn’t want to raise taxes - he wants to cut them.

I’m glad I could clear that up for you.

do you go by your middle name?

If he wants an ethical government, maybe he should order the IRS to audit every friggin’ person who works on the beltway. Wouldn’t that be fun?

His “groupie worshipers”? Since when were the tax increases designated towards a political point of view? As far as I can recall, he wants to use that money to help people in the middle and lower classes, which, from waht I can remember, is a rather diverse group of political opinions. And way to go, you can quote a talking point instead of actually arguing that people in his cabinet evaded taxes. Here’s the arguments against that whole tax evasion line:
1. The Geithner situation was way overblown. Why do you think he still got the nomination? It’s because the taxes that everyone talked about were required of him to cover his employees, something he didn’t know about when he was supposed to pay them. So they contacted him, and he paid those taxes. That’s not tax evasion.
2. Daschle was the only other person who was accused of tax evasion (so I don’t know what you mean by “all his cabinet nominees”), and the charges were so miniscule that people were writing them off in newspapers as they talked about them. I have no idea why he decided to pass up his nomination, but he certainly would have been added to the cabinet had he stayed.

He is from Chicago and that is ok. Peace

Ain’t it the truth……….and now four of his “chosen” have withdrawn cause they did not pay their Taxes……..The FOX has taken up residence in our Hen House…………..Sad.

I guess you don’t remember that the first Bush had a few as well, one withdrawing.

Obama doesn’t want to redistribute wealth (I find that most have no clue what this means). What he wants to do is stop stealing from the poor to give to the wealthy. The rich have had a “temporary” TAX-CUT for years. Taking that away, which is due to expire in 2010 anyway, is not raising your taxes. They are going back to the level they should have been!

Many who are hypocrites, who really fit the the definition, are those who seem to have a hard time with reality and would rather play games with the truth!

And no, Obama is not a hypocrite!

His plan is to lower almost everyone’s taxes and not raise any for the time being

Two of 20 some nominees had to pay additional taxes after audits The taxes and penalties have been paid. This speaks more to the complexity of the tax code than the honesty of the nominees. There was no intent to defraud the government of taxes due.

It does not show Obama as a hypocrite, it shows you as an exaggerating whiner.

i don’t know kinda weird huh is it a coincidence

Redistribution of wealth suggests that you are independently wealthy and in danger of your fortune being given to the poor and undeserving.

Guess again. $350 Billion Dollars has been issued to special interests without oversight and accountability. That is redistribution of wealth. Only it is being allocated to the people who misused the funds initially.

Your children and grandchild are being enslaved by the debt created to bestow more wealth upon the “Leadership Class”. Pay attention before offering criticism of ideas that may protect you, your children and your grandchildren from poverty similar to the type that made the European immigrants come to the US.

You have no access to the hundreds of Billions of special interest dollars urgently distributed during the Presidency of George W. Bush. Careful of the coffee. It may be cool aid.

Teach your children Industrial and Technical Economics to make critical decisions for them self. Do not rely on the press or public officials to explain what is best for you. You know before anyone else what it requires to feed and shelter your loved ones.

Be careful of being caught up in the bash President Obama wagon. The gentleman is among the best and brightest of this generation. Integrity in government must be restored. Special interests must be harnessed.

If you are that wealthy none of what is presently being discussed in Washington applies to you. Remember even when gasoline was $5.00 per gallon you could afford it. You own your own property, so there is no mortgage crisis for you. In fact you don’t even have to invest in the markeplace. Your finances are that secure.

Why do you care about potential redistribution of wealth?

Our President’s name is Barack Obama. I voted for him but he is making a mistake supporting white collar crime. If you cheated on your taxes by just $1 you would be thrown in prison for the rest of your life. Not so in politics. Illegal bank activites who have been given bailout money have been overlooked. Politians cheating on taxes have been overlooked. The auto industry has been allowed bailouts despite their inability to effectively manage their companies. Banks are laughing at the lack of controls over their spending. The people of this country are being taken advantage of but they won’t do anything about it.

Mr. Obama, I have a dream. I dream that one day, my son will be able to live in a free country, with out having to PAY FOR MISTAKES MADE BY THE GOVERNMENT THAT HE WAS TOO YOUNG TO VOTE FOR!!!

I have a dream that my son can one day open his own business WITHOUT HIS OWN GOVERNMENT TRYING TO OVER TAX HIM BECAUSE OF MISTAKES THEY MADE BEFORE HE WAS OLD ENOUGH TO VOTE.

I have a dream that one day, my son, who, guess what, wasn’t old enough to vote, won’t have to pay back $875,000,000,000 because his government was incompetent.
