How is that going to get through congress. Just asking. Is it negative to ask for the truth? I hope he can, and I want that to happen, but will the Pukes even allow a vote?..Just asking.

The same way these assholes are fighting to destroy us and him?

13. Why do you think U.S. tax code is 71,684 pages in length? |
|
Answer: So that they can have more of these § and these ¶.
If you are rich and powerful, you get to write the tax code and K-Street will ensure that one of those little thingys above, that was written by you and for the benefit of you, is on one of those 74,624 pages.
Another question: Why do you think 1% of the population controls 38% of the wealth?
Answer: Because our fedgov Representatives let them have it.
Now, do you really think Obama and the rest of the boys and girls in D & R of DC Group are going to do anything about it?

14. Will he fight to do away with some and keep some? |
|
Edited on Thu Sep-08-11 07:10 PM by Stuart G
and when the pukes try to destroy him, will he fight back, and kick ass? I sure hope so..no matter if the code changes or not. Cause these asshole pukes don't play fair, like Obama alludes to. sure, I want this passed, but if they don't allow a vote or even a discussion, what then?

20. He is going to pretend like he is fighting for the People.., |
|
However, he his eyes are focused on the prize of a second term.
It's really quite amusing to watch as each side, endeavors to blame the other. Even so, both sides are right; for both sides are responsible for letting K-Street have the run of the store.

16. Will the simple threat of closing loopholes trick the ceos into repatriating their |
|
international profits? Cause they could be rightfully worried that if Obama wins in 2012, and wins the House, the ceos would be up the creek without a paddle.

So watch your back, waste, fraud and abuse - we're coming for ya. Yup. Then we'll be able to afford our obligations again, plus a few extras too, and all lwithout having to do something crazy like tax the rich.
