They forget to tell you when they are complaining about the 1%.
The Democrat tax bill will raise the lower limit from 10 to 15% thus move 5 million working poor back to paying taxes that were exempt under the current Bush Tax bill.
Also the shell game they play on the poor is yes by raising the tax on the rich, but it is a small percent of thier disposable income so when you adjust it the poor under the democrat plan will pay more in taxes adjusted to thier disposable income than the top 2 %.
Also the left wants to bring back the Marriage penalty, who does that effect more low to middle class so the argument about the left looking out for the middle class is another sound bite.
All in all, the democrat plan is just another broad tax hike (Largest in history) to fund spending.
so who really is looking out for the poor...

All the tax breaks were given to the rich and powerful while the working and middle classes as per usual get shafted. This is why the democrats are not in favour of tax breaks like those. How would you feel if the goverment decided to pick your social group to get shafted and pay 75% of the taxes while the working and middle class only paid 10 dollars a month, I think you would complain. So wake up and smell the coffee and when a democrat gets elected president then we will see social change rather than haveing the rest of the world laughing at the US for having a joke for a leader

Because they believe in fiscal responsibility and in balancing the budget??
Environmental agencies; let me take you back to the late 1960's, driving past Indiana steel mills on the interstate and having to pull off the road because of the clouds of orange smoke that blew over the highway and made visibility zero. Or the little suburban forest preserve with streams so polluted that you could see the sewage floating down the creek and signs were posted "DO NOT TOUCH THE WATER" . This is what we had without environmental protections.
You go right on back to the days of unregulated corporate "free market" management of environmental questions, but please do it on your own little island; I don't want to have to go there again.
You need to start listening to the people who actually know what they're talking about and aren't just entertainers out there for ratings.

Socialist of the left want everyone to have an equal share of the pie. They don't care how hard you work for your money, they demand that you support all those people who don't want to work hard or work at all.
I don't listen to Rush or Sean because I find them to be self important Wind bags.

Because they can't for the life of them understand how tax cuts actually increase revenue receipts to the government. It has happened every time taxes are cut, Kennedy, Reagan, and Bush to name the last 3. Each time receipts of revenue to the US government increase and it is beyond their ability to comprehend how it works. And as far as the tax cuts to the 'Rich" as Democrats like to say, ask them how they define "rich" so they can get away with that ignorant statement. They define "rich" as a family of 2 adults earning a gross income of 40,000$ a year or more as "rich". So according to the Democrats, 2 married people making 20,000 a year each are "rich". Unbelievable, I had no idea I was "rich" trying to make my house note and car note and support my 2 children.with that income would be impossible.

That question is simple to answer. So they can take the money from you and give it to women spewing out crack addicted babies. Their idea is to pull you down, and then lift the lower classes up so that eventually, there will be no middle class. It will be the libdem elite and the masses. Read George Orwell

And why should a family with an income under $30,000 pay for the infrastructure that allows you to live the good life.
you need to stop doing coke and listening to Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity.

MARXISTS WANT TO CONTROL EVERY FACET IN YOUR LIFE.
THEY(THE LEFTISTS/MARXISTS/COMMUNISTS) BELIEVE THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS THE SOLUTION TO THE HUMAN CONDITION.
WHEN IN FACT IT IS LIBERTY AND FREEDOM THAT IS THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION FOR PROSPERITY.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS COMPARE THE SOVIET UNION TO THE UNITED STATES.
THE UNITED STATES IS STILL UP AND RUNNING,THE SOVIET UNION IS GONE.

Where do you think the money comes from to run Bush's little war in Iraq? You want that war, you should at least be man enough to pay for it, since you're obviously not man enough to go and fight in it. (And neither btw are those two useless gasbags Limpdick and Grannity).
