		<description>John disagree all you want. You are just confused. Here are the facts: McCain has refused to explain how he will pay for the never-ending war in Iraq while making Bush’s tax cuts permanent. Together, they would cost $6.3 trillion over 10 years. McCain’s Short-Term Solution For the Economy? Tax Cuts for the Wealthy in Two Years, Of Course.

Forget the experts, John we can’t afford to have you as President. China will have a marker(loan) we will not be able to pay back. We are having a hard enough time keeping up on just the interest payments. John what you propose is no better than the sub-prime &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.batteryfast.com/uniwill/255-3s4400-g1l1.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;uniwill 255-3s4400-g1l1 battery&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.batteryfast.com/uniwill/un255.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;uniwill un255 battery&lt;/a&gt; lenders, borrow (with Interest)more than you can afford to pay back.

		<description>Considering that the quagmire which is Iraq is at least partly due to the fact that Bush likewise ignored the experts such as General Shinseki -- and has continued to do so ever since when they try to tell him what he doesn&#039;t want to hear -- American voters should be seeing some serious red flags with regard to that statement.  After all, the experts are often experts for a &lt;em&gt;reason&lt;/em&gt; -- usually because they&#039;re the ones who are proven right at least as often as not.</description>

		<description>All McCain is doing is trying to bribe voters to vote for him in the vain hope that they will get a tax cut.  Hopefully voters are smart enough to realize that a tax cut while we are still occupying Iraq, have giant deficits and are still borrowing billions from China is the dumbest thing any President could possibly do.</description>

		<description>So he read Greenspan&#039;s book last month and now he knows more than the experts -- not that the &quot;experts&quot; have been so right, but that he thinks he is qualified is astonishing.

Actually, it sounds a lot like W who thought he knew all there was to know about anything when he took office too.

		<description>If McNutzi is allowed to implement another four years of the supply side myth he better mandate adding Mandarin Chinese to the elementary school curriculum because that is what we will be speaking by the time those poor kids start looking for jobs.

Then again, if the voters buy this crap after suffering the effects of the Reagan and Bush(squared) contributions to the national debt, the country deserves what it will get.</description>

		<description>This is the man who will most likely be the next president of the United States.  The MSM will react with its accustomed barred teeth for the Democratic nominee on such essential and important issues as whether coffee should be accepted when offered at a campaign stop and how well the candidate bowls.  McCain will be trumpeted as the great American hero and the inheritor of the Bush codpiece.  

None will question the validity of the Laffer curve in increasing tax revenue which depends upon growth in production, efficiency and wealth through the reinvestment of tax dollars in the economy.  However, tax rates are low enough now that there would be little additional investment.  Profits retained by corporations rose to their highest levels after the Bush cuts.  Off shoring of jobs means that most of the money and multiplier effect of expenditures are seen over seas.  Loose regulations and lax tax enforcement has increased sheltering of corporate and individual wealth overseas without as significant a growth in tax revenues.

One would imagine that there would be concerns about a 71 year old man who barely graduated from the Naval Academy (bottom 5 of his class) who neither studied or (until the latest flip-flop)did not have expertise in economic issues, flip-flopped on the Bush tax cuts and so much else.  However, he throws a hell of a barbecue and fits that macho image that really determines the qualifications of a person to be president.  We will have more Republican rule because the press and right wing noise machine will convince everyone that McCain is a liberal, has simplified all of those nasty issues into very simple solutions and is a nice guy with whom to have a beer.</description>

		<description>How can anyone, no matter how brain-dead a Republican they might be, listen to McCain without feeling sick or laughing hysterically? He supports the troops, but won&#039;t support a new GI Bill. He admits to knowing nothing about economics but disagrees with the economic experts. He wants to &quot;help&quot; the middle class but he wants to first eliminate any taxes on his rich buddies. He hates the special interests but has no one but lobbyists working for him. He criticized Bush&#039;s handling of the occupation but he wants to keep doing it exactly the same way Bush has.

WTF?</description>

He wants to &#8220;help&#8221; the middle class but he wants to first eliminate any taxes on his rich buddies. He hates the special interests but has no one but lobbyists working for him. He criticized Bush&#8217;s handling of the occupation but he wants to keep doing it exactly the same way Bush has.</p>

		<description>John McCain told Larry King:

“&lt;strong&gt;I’d like to convince people&lt;/strong&gt;, because of my extensive background on the economy and knowledge, that I can see a path through this difficult time we’re in.”

&lt;em&gt;One month before this statement he said:&lt;/em&gt;  “The issue of economics is not something I’ve understood as well as I should,” he said. But, “I’ve got Greenspan’s book,” he assured the audience.

John disagree all you want.  You are just confused.  Here are the facts:  McCain has refused to explain how he will pay for the never-ending war in Iraq while making Bush&#039;s tax cuts permanent. Together, they would cost $6.3 trillion over 10 years.  McCain&#039;s Short-Term Solution For the Economy? Tax Cuts for the Wealthy in Two Years, Of Course.

Forget the experts, John we can&#039;t afford to have you as President.  China will have a marker(loan) we will not be able to pay back.  We are having a hard enough time keeping up on just the interest payments.  John what you propose is no better than the sub-prime lenders, borrow (with Interest)more than you can afford to pay back.  I for one, do not want to mortgage our entire country away.</description>

		<description>McCain:  &quot;I disagree. I disagree with the experts. I disagree. I disagree. I disagree with the experts. I have experts of my own. I have many experts of my own who say that this will stimulate the economy, will create jobs, and increase revenues over time.&quot;
__________________________________________

Sounds like McCain had to go out shopping until he found some &quot;experts&quot; who would tell him what he wanted to hear.

Perhaps these &quot;experts&quot; will also tell him who to blame when this strategy does nothing except bloat the coffers of big business, erode the middle class, send our debt skyrocketing and the value of our dollar sinking at even more ridiculous rates than they are now, and turn our nation into a third-world country.  Oh, that&#039;s easy -- they will just blame the &quot;liberals&quot;.</description>
