		<description>I assume you&#039;ve picked McCain? The streak continues! When Obama helps this country rebuild its international reputation, and helps pass the national health care we so desperately need, will you apologize for being so wrong, or will you just promise to support whoever is running against him in 2012?</description>

		<description>Like I said, McCaskill came out early in support of Obama.  There&#039;s no point in contacting her.</description>

		<description>wow, mimi!  you are so persuasive.  now that you&#039;ve insulted us, i&#039;m sure we&#039;ll all be trucking over to obama&#039;s campaign headquarters to write checks and volunteer.

unfortunately for you, &lt;em&gt;self centered, clearly sad people desperate for affection whose miserable state leads them to despise those who are young and filled with hope for the future&lt;/em&gt; can and DO vote.

barack obama is a narcissistic religious fanatic who used race-baiting, sexism and misogyny to gain the presumptive nomination of the democratic party.  i will never vote for him, and kids like you are just going to have to deal with it.

you&#039;re going to be miserable in november, mimi.  it sucks when your candidate loses.  i know.  i&#039;ve been voting since 1980 and bill clinton has been my only successful pick.

welcome to adult&#039;s table, mimi.</description>

		<description>Obama wants to let the temporary Bush tax cuts expire for those making over $200K or $250K, and he wants to eliminate the AMT tax on the middle class. Obama also wants to give those making 
under $75K an additional tax to offset the regressive payroll tax. And he wants to eliminate the income tax for anyone making less than $50K. If you click on the link for the Kaus article, you will find attached a PDF that point by point breaks down McCain and Obama tax plans. As for Obama&#039;s Donut plan...

Mickey Kaus for Slate outlines this very well:

Obama fuzzes up the &quot;contribution&quot; part of the tax. By starting up the payroll tax again above $250,000 in income, he risks undermining support for the system (even though he&#039;d keep other regressive &quot;contribution&quot; aspects in place, including a) taxing low-income workers from their first dollar** and b) taxing only earned income and not investment income.) The new Obama system wouldn&#039;t be welfare, but in order to make that point defenders would have to rely more heavily on the &quot;work test.&quot;

SNIP

By asking the affluent to pay what by historical standards is a big extra chunk of their income--at least 6.2% at the margin, maybe double that if you assume workers wind up paying for their employer&#039;s additional 6.2% share, definitely double that for the self-employed--Obama risks provoking the bailout reaction. That&#039;s one reason he creates his &quot;doughnut hole&quot; of no payroll tax between $102,000 and $250,000--there are lots of voters in that range he doesn&#039;t want to chase away. 

High-marginal rates in themselves are not a good thing--they encourage tax evasion, for starters, as well as elaborate legal schemes that funnel money not into the most productive uses, but into tax shelters that avoid the high marginal rates (by, say, reclassifying it as capital gains). Lots of laywers and bankers take their cut in these wasteful shelter shenanigans. If Obama really will hike the top rate into the 60% pre-Reagan range, as Krugman and the Tax Policy Center suggest, that&#039;s a big deal. And if 6-12 points of that 60% will come from Obama&#039;s Social Security hike, we&#039;d better make sure we&#039;re getting something pretty important in exchange.

Eliminating the payroll-tax cap puts enough IOUs into Social Security&#039;s &quot;trust fund&quot; to make it solvent for more than 75 years. But the federal government needs to have enough cash to make good on those IOUs, and eliminating the cap gets you, as I said, only about one quarter of the way there. And Obama&#039;s plan falls short even of this goal.

http://www.slate.com/id/2193674/

Social Security is structured so that the more you pay in, the more you get back. That&#039;s what supposedly makes it a compact among the generations and not a welfare program. Actually, what it does is make it an inefficient, disguised welfare program. If Obama would give high-earners more Social Security benefits in return for making them pay more, then of course his plan would fall even shorter. It would also be a little strange: Why take money away from these folks to give some of it back to them? If he does not give them more benefits, he will be changing the Social Security program in a fairly big way.

		<description>Comment by mimi &#124; 2008-06-19 21:43:20
Record levels of bitter in this post, and not a single pressing issue beyond your own candidate loosing! Amazingly self centered post, clearly a sad person desperate for affection. I&#039;m sorry your miserable state leads you to despise people who are young and filled with hope for the future. This passage was particularly painful:
 
&lt;blockquote&gt;I saw a photo of Obama posing with young women and they were all smiles and beside themselves. That only hardened my resolve to vote for McCain. These girls don’t get it but they will if McCain gets elected. I’ve faced the sad reality trhat there is a generation of young women who are nothing more than bitch-biting, needy, insipid objects who will not only grovel for the attention of a male they will kill any other woman who gets in her way. They have no pride until one day it occurs to them that men think they are passed their prime and no longer care to pay them attention. And then they’ll want to scream bloody murder.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Its sad to me your answer is to vote for a guy who called Hillary an ugly lesbian, and who called his own wife the c-word; a man who left his wife for a younger women, just like your post implies. McCain is wrong for this country, I just hope you can work  through your anger, and think about whats best for all the subsequent generations, not just how to punish those who disagreed with your pick.</description>

		<description>Yeah, how naive, just to go by their actual, verifiable records, as opposed to just making shit up.

You do know that McCain is soft on domestic terrorism?  That in 1993 he voted against a law to &quot;to prohibit bombings, arson and blockades at abortion clinics, and shootings and threats of violence against doctors and nurses who perform abortions&quot;?

		<description>Respectfully, I am of the generation that survived RvW. My mother left in tears after watching some version of The Silent Scream, which back in the day in some states was required before you had an abortion. It was part of their mandatory counseling. Now it is a new generation of bald-pated men &quot;holding my gender captive of their moral precepts.&quot; I have never felt that I was a captive of my gender, as you implied. I am on the cusp of the Juno Generation. It is more important to me that communities are able to address the issue of abortion as they see fit. You brought up 2004 when pro- life activists attempted to make BC inaccessible for women in 12 states. They were emboldened by Bush&#039;s Dred Scott promises, and they never came to pass. That&#039;s why we haven&#039;t heard anything of it since. And RvW has nothing to do with BC or education. Those issues are determined by downticket Dems. Likewise, Congress must do its job approving SCOTUS appointments. I personally would not miss RvW were it gone tomorrow. Most pro-life are women, actually. I am pro-choice, but I refuse to allow that to dictate my vote.</description>

		<description>If you saw his website your Brain would Really hurt. Full of spin and old lies, flagrant and known, but that doesn&#039;t stop him. Then there&#039;s the new Global Pitch - actually says you don&#039;t have to be an American to have a vote in this election - and found elsewhere they are actually seeking out translators to hire. Finally, and worst, there is KIDS FOR OBAMA all marketing really pretty and only open to children UNDER 12. Pitch is to have an PARTY and  obama camp will provide all the obama logo gear, etc. Intro SAYS this (no joke):

Studies have proven children can influence the votes of their parents and older siblings!

So, save your head and don&#039;t go there. Anything of real interest is constantly being scrubbed anyway.</description>

		<description>Whoops, meant to say &quot;love&quot;.  (Brain damage from all the blow I did while GWB was blowing me in a limo.  Larry will have the video by next Monday at 9 AM.)

Anyway, show your devotion for Hillary by voting for all she&#039;s ever stood against.  Makes sense, right?</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;“Menopausal cheerleaders” as a way to denigrate to views of a respected group of senators that happen to be women.&lt;/strong&gt;

They don&#039;t have any views. They were parrotting Clinton after they stabbed her in the back. They were trying to take Clinton&#039;s work, her life&#039;s work, and put it forth as the Democratic party &quot;Checklist For &lt;strong&gt;Change&lt;/strong&gt;&quot; meaning giving Obama credit for Clinton&#039;s work. 

They came forward as politicians first who happen to be women and acted like high school cheerleaders, rah rah-ing for the halfback who gets the ball at the 99 yard line and takes credit for the touchdown. If they had any self-respect, and these are grown women who know exactly what they&#039;re doing, they would not carry on with this farce. I will say it again, since my comment seems to have struck a nerve, they are exploiting their femininity when they have intention of carrying out women&#039;s agendas. &quot;Menopausal cheerleaders&quot; was a nice way of characterizing them.</description>

		<description>Condi, like Margaret Thatcher and countless other well-known female world leaders, has never run for elected office. It makes me grind my teeth when people hold them up as &quot;real&quot; women who got where they are without men. Each Indhira Gandhi, Segolene Royal and Golda Meir has their own unique story for how they got where they are. Margaret Thatcher was admitted to her party by a quota. Running for office is a tough and dirty political rite of passage for most women.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ll cut to the chase:

The Democratic Party is still peeing in our faces and calling it rain.

These women are political whores of the worst kind. They absolutely suck. And yes their whores. If you sell ass, you are a whore and it&#039;s not gender restricted.

The MSM is still doing their heavy-handed bullshit advancing the narrative of Party Unity. If I hear another person on tv say that Hillary&#039;s women are supporting Obama, I&#039;ll gag.

&lt;strong&gt;I, for one, am not.&lt;/strong&gt; 

The really think we are stupid.

They sorely underestimated the overwhelming response against Obama and now they are trying to pull out the pandering moves.

All of what they propose has been proposed before. Now, I don&#039;t fucking care about these proposals, especially if it means selling my vote like some cheap whore who was played for a chump by Obama and his Chicago thugs. Fuck&#039;em! They can rot in hell.

I saw a photo of Obama posing with young women and they were all smiles and beside themselves. That only hardened my resolve to vote for McCain. These girls don&#039;t get it but they will if McCain gets elected. I&#039;ve faced the sad reality trhat there is a generation of young women who are nothing more than bitch-biting, needy, insipid  objects who will not only grovel for the attention of a male they will kill any other woman who gets in her way. They have no pride until one day it occurs to them that men think they are passed their prime and no longer care to pay them attention. And then they&#039;ll want to scream bloody murder.

I&#039;m proud to have been part of a younger generation of women who put an honest effort at unity while fighting for Women&#039;s Rights. And no we weren&#039;t perfect and made mistakes (the current generation was one of our biggest), but at least we were smart.

The Democratic Party can have these people. 

I don&#039;t want to be in the same room with them much less the same Party.

&lt;strong&gt;IT&#039;S TIME FOR A THIRD PARTY!!&lt;/strong&gt;

I pretty much have lost respect for every politician in DC. The msm is filled with self-serving ignorant nasty people who do Corporate bidding for their big contracts.

America was already on the road to being dumbed down when Bush took office, but his administration has turned a lot of the country into gapers. 

While there are still enough intelligent people around we need to organize and get a new Party off the ground. 

I&#039;m voting for McCain because with these idiots in office it really won&#039;t matter. An Obama as POTUS would be a nightmare with these people.

I don&#039;t care what anybody else is doing. Obama won&#039;t get my vote. I&#039;m hoping that enough people will see through this and feel the same way.

The Democrats do not deserve to win.

PS

CNN Consultant, Roland Martin, is now doing promos on the black cable station, TV One. He&#039;s providing blacks with Talking Points to persuade white people to vote for Obama. It&#039;s disgusting. I&#039;m going to see if it&#039;s available on youtube. 

Shouldn&#039;t he not be allowed to be a consultant on CNN if he does stuff like this?

This Primary broke every rule in the book and they&#039;re still breaking them.</description>
