Default Yo Opie! Like I said about Kerry Tax cuts

From: (ScottW)

Actually you said "back down" as in your throat.


Actually Opie, what I said was:


So Kerry's plan is to raise taxes and increase the government payroll.


More Bush fear-mongering bull****. Kerry's plan in part is to bring tax rates

for the rich and super rich back down to pre-Bush levels while keeping the rest
of the package, especially middle class cuts intact.

Which, in turns out, is exactly what he plan to do. So wtf was *you* goin' on
about?

Seriously though, corporate profits are looking up (even if
Wallstreet is to stupid to see it), but the trade deficit is out of
control.


*Way* out of...

So the the national debt. Now here's some figures. The answer to your question
is 'yes'. According to what I heard on NPR today, if we cut out the entire
budget for education, health, research etc and left only defense, we'd still be
in a deficit situation. So we need more revenue and we need it from those who
can afford it. That would be me, Opie, and I'm willing to pay a bit if helps.
What about you?

Do you really think raising taxes on the rich and a peanut cut for
the rapidly becoming unemployed middle class is really gonna do
anything?


It ain't *RAISING*... It's restoring. And according to the figures I've seen,
the answer is a big mother-****er Y E S!

Will Kerry initiate a trade war with China over their currency
policy?


Don't know. We'll see.

He hasn't shown the balls yet to go there


But he *has* shown the balls to call the Bush boys out for the thievin' lyin'
rich white boy club they is and that's just fine with me.
