		<description>McCain knows what label to put on it. It&#039;s called liberal capitalism. Whether you agree with it or not, that&#039;s what it is. But McCain knows that&#039;s not enough to scare people. So he and his campaign started red-baiting. So unless McCain can explain how a 3 point difference in the marginal tax rate (that&#039;s about what Obama is advocating, which is only a return to what it was before) causes one to be a horrible socialist as oppossed to a good capitalist, then McCain should probably take an introductory political science class and learn a bit about different political and economic systems. http://straighttalkonmccain.blogspot.com/</description>

		<description>My rebuttal ala rhf mode (because the kids are in bed, and I&#039;m bored):

&lt;em&gt;btruthful says:
ROTFL!!! What an ILLITERATE MORON! I DIDN’T bring it up, another OBAMAHEAD DID!&lt;/em&gt;

ROTLF!!! Actually, you did BRING IT UP when you accused misshusseinmolly of SMEARING, which she WASN&#039;T! She was just stating a well documented FACT! Something your DUM BASS brain can&#039;t COMPREHEND!

&lt;em&gt;ValiantVenusGrewFromUranus says:
Yeah, because NO,NO is INDECISIVE!! ROTFL, you’re a 
MORON!&lt;/em&gt;

Of course, you forgot the INDECISIVE conclusion, which was &quot;As far as I know...&quot; which leaves doubt in the listeners mind. ROTFL, you&#039;re a MORON!

&lt;em&gt;republicanshatefacts says:
Great ADVICE, now FOLLOW THEM and STFU on Hillary - OK - TARD?&lt;/em&gt;

I NEVER attacked HILLARY! I DEFENDED misshusseinmolly&#039;s correct comparison, well documented from CBS. So, how about if you STFU on everything - OK - DUM BASS?   And your childish name calling to the mentally challenged is PATHETIC! 
JUST LIKE YOU! ROTFL!

&lt;em&gt;ValiantTruthfulhatesUranus says:
People are free to believe whatever nonsense they want, whether it’s the world isn’t going through climate change, and the earth is flat - but I can point out it’s stupid in what still exists as free speech. Tolerance means I do tolerate them - it doesn’t mean I have to ignore how stupid their beliefs are and PRETEND they’re rational, logical or relevant.&lt;/em&gt;

Project much? ROTFL! 
So your tolerance equates to demeaning those you don&#039;t agree with. Nice progressive compassion. Of course, yours must be the only true way, in YOUR DELUSIONAL PSYCHOPATHIC world. ROTFL!!!
&lt;em&gt;
republicansVenushatesFrombtruthfulsArse says:&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;em&gt;AWAIT? I think you mean INVITE… Of course you’ll continue it, you’ve committed yourself to BEING RIGHT in the face of ALL EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY - just like the Flat Earth XTians do… Help yourself, your IGNORANCE only harms YOU for the MOST PART. Except when you elect a candidate that’s not up to the job. I’m HOPING your candidate is, because HOPE is all we’ve got unfortunately!&lt;/em&gt;

INVITE? I meant AWAIT... The true verb of the post.  Of course, you&#039;ll continue attacking those who you feel smear your darling Hillary since you&#039;ve committed yourself to BEING RIGHT in the face of ALL EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY... Help yourself, your IGNORANCE and hate only harms YOU for the MOST PART. Except when you support a candidate that conceded two states, then wanted them back after the ruling. 
You seem to deal with anger associated psychosis. May I suggest you google &quot;ZYPREXA&quot;?  ROTFL!!!


Dear gawd, in a strange way, that was pretty cathartic, and dare I say, almost pleasing.
Oh, the tangled webs we weave....</description>

		<description>McLame&#039;s purported hero, the Progressive Party nominee in 1912 and great trust buster Teddy Roosevelt, was a firm proponent of spreading the wealth via a graduated (i.e. progressive) income tax and the dreaded inheritance tax. Which by McLame&#039;s and Palin&#039;s logic makes good ole TR a Marxist Communist. Add to that the old time redistributionist himself, Ronald (Robin Hood) Reagan, herald of the earned income credit and McLame should be staunchly in Obama&#039;s progressive corner.</description>

$250K for a family of 4 is hardly what it used to be. You’re talking about the working-class end of the highest tax bracket (I dare say our country’s bread and butter), not the uber-wealthy. 
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;

Ah, no you are not. You are talking about the upper end the top 2% or so. You can dare say they are the Martians if you want that doesnt mean it will even APPROACH reality.

Full disclosure: I am not a Henry (not even close!), but incentive to earn is a pivotal factor in our economy. When incentive falls, so does production.
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;

Are you really making the argument that no one is going to want to make a quarter of a million dollars a year and enter the top two or three percent of wage earners in the country because if they do they will have to pay a small increase of a tax on that revenue REALLY? I am sorry but anyone stupid enough to take that argument seriously is never going to make it. Its like saying I dont WANT to win the lottery I would have to pay taxes on it. Only the stupidest of the stupid could possibly think it makes sense</description>

<p>$250K for a family of 4 is hardly what it used to be. You’re talking about the working-class end of the highest tax bracket (I dare say our country’s bread and butter), not the uber-wealthy.<br />
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;</p>
<p>Ah, no you are not. You are talking about the upper end the top 2% or so. You can dare say they are the Martians if you want that doesnt mean it will even APPROACH reality.</p>

		<description>I just think it is amusing when your head gets all bunched up. Some of those old totally out of control maniacal primary rants were pure genius... Sorry about the repeat on the hopium thing. I was just amazed that you said all that stuff without dropping one of your old favs.</description>

		<description>valiantvenusgrewfromuranus,
If we haven&#039;t &quot;gotten over the primaries&quot;, why are you the one always bringing it up.
By the way, in the 60 minutes interview, she responded to the question of &quot;Is Barack a Muslim&quot; by saying...&quot;No. No. As far as I know.&quot;
Which does entail a question of doubt for the viewer, a non definitive statement.

Kind of like &quot;rhf does not have oral sex with small domesticated farm animals, as far as I know.&quot;

Now, enough with the attacks. It serves no purpose but to make you look foolish. You are more intelligent than that.
 
And if I may so incline, I&#039;ve never attacked the non believers here regarding their beliefs (or non beliefs). Why should the believers endure your attacks. I would think your definition of PROGRESSIVE would include tolerance of Christians.
Guess I thought wrong.

I await your not so subtle venomous response, but be aware, I&#039;m off for home, but will gladly continue this, in kind, tomorrow.

Good day!</description>

		<description>dbadass, I was vainly attempting to have that same conversation with daughter Amber (5.5 years old).
She said she &#039;wanted more stuff&#039;. And I sat her down and discussed, food, clothing and shelter as things we need, and toys, tv and the other &#039;stuff&#039; that we &#039;want&#039;.
After all, Daddy wants to buy a new guitar every year, but daddy doesn&#039;t need them, so he doesn&#039;t...

May have fallen on deaf ears, but maybe not...</description>

		<description>Nettles
So if pride does not pay the bills why not learn to lower the bills? The average US citizens consumes an absurdly disproportionate amount of resources. There is simply no need for it. I too once lived in that world but I have elected to distance myself from it. I am a single parent of a three person household and I am happy and getting by with far less than 250 K. We confuse wants with needs...</description>
