        Hmmm...I copy paste my responses? No more so than those who copy/paste the initial argument points.

        I'm sorry I forgot to include the link for my anti-John McCain post above....here it is:

        http://www.realchange.org/mccain.htm

        The VAST majority of my posts are not copy/paste... especially when I give MY view of why I think the idea that I did copy/paste might make sense.

        Yes, I will double check my sources before I post a response...but that is not being irresponsible, that is making sure that I have my facts straight.

        IF the ACORN involvement is fair game, so is Keating 5.

        Yes, I understand the core differences in the Obama vs Paul tax plan, but the proposed end result is similar. Give tax relief to the people so they can spend it with businesses, in the meantime continue taxing the businesses that create these jobs in the first place....and I'll be man enough to admit that Obama's plan taxes the corporations more than pauls would. I was commenting on your post though Brian that more money in the taxpayers pocket is good for businesses.

            Well let me put it in laymans terms for you....

            Paul: No income tax. All tax money paid by corporations.

            Osama bin Obama: Tax the rich more to give money to poor. Tax corporations more.

            So if the rich were not taxed more, they could re-invest that money they didnt get taxed back into our economy. If they were taxed more, that money would not go into the economy. Simple...no income tax would help create a higher multiplier factor within the economy vs. obama's robin hood tactics.

              Now, how many of you would listen to my ramblings if I didn't have some source for where I got my info? What credibility would I have if I couldn't at least back up where I get my information from? That's right, the same amount you have by claiming that I'm a copy/paste machine that has no thought of my own and can't defend my points.

                Nope...just most of it and if not, probably not original thought. Someone else thought it up for you...

                  your posts get too tedious to read because all you do is ramble on with other peoples thoughts and not your own. Be original...

                          That's been working real well for us lately hasn't it? I mean, how well has the economy done since those tax changes took effect that benefited the wealthy (not arguing that they didn't deserve the breaks....because I feel they did). Even before all this blew up in our faces (economy) the economy was struggling...moving forward, but struggling. Increased foreign debt only helps to increase the problems....if we don't have enough income into the treasury from taxes, what choices do we REALLY have? Reduce spending (good luck with that....name once in recent history where that has happened....even with a republican house/senate/whitehouse it didn't happen, so I suggest all the republicans get off their high horse on this one) or borrow money weakening the dollar to the point where pay increases don't equate to being able to purchase new/more items.

                          Housing aside, it really doesn't take any more money for a rich person to live comfortably than it does a middle class wage earner. Groceries cost the same, gas costs the same, football tickets cost the same, etc... However a weakened dollar hurts the middle class people who buy these goods more so than it does the wealthy.

                          Again, I agree based on the principle of letting the taxpayers keep more of their money. I've never disagreed. I've never said obama's plan should be the long term solution for our tax policy, in fact I've said the opposite. I just think that it is necessary at this point in time.

                          BTW, your laymans terms are pretty much the same damn thing I said Brian...did you have to google tjamz to get your response?

                              So paying taxes would be the same as not paying taxes? That is what I dont think you are getting. Quit playing stupid here and trying to pull an Obama tactic and answer the question. Does Obama have NO INCOME tax in his plan? Does PAUL have NO INCOME TAX in his plan? You dont need to try and explain economics to me, I understand them completley and know what is going on. Bottom line paying NO INCOME TAX would be more benficial for the economy than THE RICH PAYING THE INCOME TAX....

                                Then you should realize how screwed as a country we are in general...obama sucks and mccain sucks. Period...quit sticking up for what you believe is the lesser of two evils.

                                        Yeah, so it would be just like '04 when I didn't vote for the lunatic on the left or the retard on the right. Or in '00, If I could have voted, my vote wouldn't have mattered anyway because popular vote=squat.

                                          I'd like to see a video of MCCain throwing some dice. He uses his whole body right? :lol:

                                          I'll keep my money, guns and freedom. You keep the change.

                                          Hallorann: Fargostreet?
                                          Danny: You're scared of Fargostreet, ain't ya?
                                          Hallorann: No, I ain't.
                                          Danny: Mr. Hallorann. What's in Fargostreet?
                                          Hallorann: Nothin'! There ain't nothin' in Fargostreet. But you ain't got no business goin' in there anyway. So stay out! You understand? Stay out!
