When will flumper and anhil9tor start criticizing McCain?
I can criticize him. I thought the debate last night was pretty much blah. Neither said much that I had not heard. I was a little surprised with McCain's surprise idea that the government is going to buy up everyone's "devaluation" of their house so that they can refinance at the new lower value of it.
I was also disappointed that McCain continues to use that "96 times Obama voted to raise taxes or not cut taxes or whatever". Surely he has read by now that the facts are out, and that is a misrepresenation. That is exactly the kind of thing that I can't stand about politics. Same thing I was pissed at Joe Biden for the other night. To take votes and things that they good and fucking well know are outright lies and twist them around to try and trick people into believing otherwise.
And I still have a hard time with the argument that they have over McCain's "no tax increases" vs Obama's "Only tax people making over $250,000".
I know that many many small business owners make $250,000 or more. They have to pay personal income tax and the tax on their corporation combined. If you run a decent sized small business that should be over $250,000 if you have any employees. Obviously MOST of that money remains in the company, and the only part you take out is the taxes and a nominal salary.
I don't believe Obama when he says that 95% of small businesses will not be affected.
I also don't understand why McCain won't come off of his "tax cuts for everyone" policy. Right now that sends exactly the wrong message. I agree that $250,000 is too low of a number. But seriously, why not $1,000,000. or $2,000,000? Anything to get rid of Obama's constant retort of how he is putting $4 billion or whatever it is into the hands of big oil.
I don't see McCain having a chance at this point. Not unless they have some picture of Obama fucking a farm animal and holding the Quaran.
