Shoving your moral high-ground in the face of only those who disagree with you ideologically gets you nowhere.

FYI I haven't chosen a side. I am collecting facts before I do. Your link provided good facts. But it makes it harder to listen to you when you do present a valid argument because most of what I hear is your negativity towards me.

Don't assume everyone is a Party Line Voter. I personally think it takes little or no intelligence to just discount every idea just because it comes from someone on the other side.[/QUOTE]


if you dont hug romneys nutsack and post cartoon pics of Obie the pimp, youre a communist, marxist, socialist liberal

keep that in mind when you try and have an intelligent debate on this board

I think I figured that out. Not too much of a better treatment from the Liberal base either.

I think I will leave this to you guys. Have fun. I'm out.

Actually, no. If you read Ryan's proposal, there would be 3 tax rates. 0%, 10% and 25%. And the 0% isn't designed to benefit the lower income people. In fact, under Ryan's proposal, Romney would pay .82% of his income in taxes. That's POINT 8 2 percent.

And this is good how?

Let's see them get together to sell that.
