If a supporter of high taxes really wanted to pay high taxes, or to contribute more to the community, or whatever, they would do it on their own. What they really want is for Mommy and Daddy (the State) to punish people who commit the ‘sin’ of having more than they. It’s just envy, dressed up as righteousness.

Ask them why, if Barack Obama believes the rich (anyone making over $250k) should pay more in income taxes, why he and his wife, BOTH of whom make more than that, have paid the bare minimum each year, nothing extra.

Or, in other words, why he wants to force others to do what he refuses to do himself.

And yesterday he was caught on mic talking about how much better communist China is than American.

Oh, and has everyone seen the new Obama music video with Hollywood celebrities praying to their messiah?

Talk about a gift to Republicans! The Obama campaign is IMPLODING.

I thank sweet Jesus above that I live in a country where the prosperity and wealth is so abundant and unrestrained that it’s entirely possible for at least 90% of us to forget how successful and well-off we actually are. The Obama-zombies who are criticizing McCain about this have it all wrong. The fact that McCain can’t unequivocally list every piece of real estate he has an interest in off the top of his head doesn’t mean he’s out of touch–it means he understands that in America, nobody needs to have a prepared excuse if they are rudely asked to catalogue their wealth. The fact is, it’s not shockingly rare for people in this country to have several homes, a fleet of cars, a walk-in closet full of expensive suits, or hundreds of dollars in cash in their wallet at any given moment–thus, it’s nothing to be ashamed of or feel guilty about. And it’s certainly nothing that McCain or anyone else should have to have a “prepared answer” for. Yes, the McCains have a lot of money–but so do millions and millions of other people in this country. There’s so much wealth in the US that even as rich as the McCains are, there are 1000s and 1000s of other families who would look at their bank accounts and think they’re destitute white trash. God bless America!

And meanwhile, Obama want to raise my taxes to make sure that I NEVER lose track of what I have, or God forbid have a house as big as the one he lives in. Who the hell would vote for someone with such an awful, warped vision of “prosperity”–the kind where everyone (except the elites like Barack and Michelle, of course) can’t expect anything more than what everyone else gets to have. Screw that.

I think McCain doesn’t know because he trust his wife and family to take care of family business while he does “his duly elected job”.

I agree if he had given a incorrect number they would have accused him of being “out of touch” and also “old and unable to recall”.

Watching him at Saddleback had to put the fear of God in each of his team. McCain was sharp and concise.

I can’t imagine anyone wanting to be his running partner.

Lord help us all.

Poor Barry thinks there are 57 States in the USA that he visited during the primary campaign in 2008. He’s just confused with the 57 member states of the Islamic Federation. (Look it up)

Just a harmless freudian slip from the former Trinity Church member, no doubt.

Which is worse, I wonder…

What is McCain supposed to do – pack up and go home? Not try to convince people to vote for himself? Concede the election?

Obama is the one who associated with nasty people like with Wright, Pfleger, Rezko and Ayers. Obama is the one who can’t think or talk without a teleprompter, and whose wife has never managed to be proud of America (until and unless it meets her demands for validation by electing her husband President). McCain is just the messenger.
