"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency .It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

Reagan inherited a mess too... remember Stagflation... and managed a way to change America's fortunes when the world was writing us off.
He believed we could do it if government got out of the way and off our backs. Simple American Principles. We don't hear that kind of talk from the current office holder, and we do not see the kind of legislation proven to motivate men to action.
That way was lower taxes, eliminating price controls and red tape.
Similar to the recipe proferred by JFK.

What tax cuts?Reagan solved stagflation by jacking up government spending to unheard of levels, and cutting taxes. Obama talked the economic meltdown by unheard of spending and cutting taxes.
Your point again?

Small Business Tax Breaks in the Stimulus Bill
Are you denying there where definite tax cuts in the stimulus package?
Nice try but most comes from Bush as you first article shows. Next year if Obama lets the Bush tax cuts expire it will be the largest tax increase in our history
No, those are from the current administration, mostly from the stimulus. Nice try though.
Further, if the Bush tax cuts expire, I do not think it will be even close to the largest tax increase, and I am sure you can document your claim, can't you.
I imagine that after January 2011 you will be regretting these fine words you have penned.

bush tax cuts expire which will be the largets tax increase ever - Bing
Any way you look at it, if all of the Bush tax cuts for all taxpayers are allowed to sunset, and brackets revert automatically to the 2000 rates, it would be the largest tax increase in history! As you can see, if the Bush tax cuts expire, the rate increases on the lowest income filers from 10% to 15% would amount to a 50% increase.
Even though many political analysts assume that Obama will keep his promise to maintain the Bush tax rates for couples making less than $250,000, it's important to remember that doing so is going to require Congressional action. The Bush tax cuts automatically sunset at the end of this year, so doing nothing will result in this massive tax increase, sure to be an election issue in 2012.
Taking action, however, is also fraught with peril. If you liked the closed-door negotiations and political intrigue connected to the passage of the healthcare bill, then you'll love the politics that are sure to come along with deciding which of the Bush tax cuts are allowed to sunset and which are allowed to continue, and to what taxpayer income levels they will apply.
You still have not even close to documented your claim. Hint: linking to a search is not documenting it, especially when the returns from that search is a bunch of blogs.
Are you willing to concede Obama did pass a bunch of tax cuts for middle class workers and small businesses?
No. He gave minimal cuts to make it look good. Those cuts will be ate up by Bush tax cuts expiring which you hide from. Then there is carbon tax coming or cap and trade. We will be over taxed and poor while Obama is still rich
So, despite your questioning, you do admit that yes, Obama did cut taxes. You have some concerns for the future(which may contain things you have no idea about), but you do admit now that in what we are talking about, Obama did in fact cut taxes. Good to see we are in agreement. You also seem to be moving away from your lame "biggest tax increase in history" talking point as well. Good for you.
The tax cuts mean nothing when the biggest tax increase ever is coming. Then there is cap and tax. We won't even be able to see or rememeber that little bit Obama did.
You do know that lower income people would actually pay less for energy than they do now under the cap and trade bill? You do know that middle class end up about even under the bill IIRC? You do know that Obama cut taxes, and that, according to conservative wisdom, that should help the economy, correct? So now how exactly is Obama killing jobs?
You mean like unemployment will not go above 8%? He is no longer believable or credibile.
If he is not helping the private sector he is killing jobs. Biggest problem is nobody trusts him which means not investing now.
Nice try but most comes from Bush as you first article shows. Next year if Obama lets the Bush tax cuts expire it will be the largest tax increase in our history
AS the report that the 8.7 % number was pulled from clearly states, that number was a projection, and could very well be wrong. Funny how you have had that explained to you repeatedly, with quotes from the very document, and you still parrot it time and again.
Obama has, most likely, helped create private sector jobs. In fact, it's almost certain. No one knows for sure how many, with estimates ranging from ~1 million, to as high as ~3.5 million. The problem is the economy is slow to recover from the devastating crash that happened before Obama was even president. Not alot can be done to change that.
Bull Obama has done nothing except create government jobs,grow government and SPEND SPEND SPEND
