    As you people are so fond of saying...He was the president. Thus it was HIS final decision and HIS tax increase.

    Thank you...I will carry on. And you Sir may also carry on with your constant barrage of hypocritical thinking that defines Republicans.

    Proops is pretty awesome in general. He was even the voice for the American version of "Bob the Builder."

    That is because you avoid reality and the truth; they didn't do it because they knew it would be political suicide. Even that did not save the House Democrats in 2010.

    Democrats only care about political power and have historically been shown to say whatever it takes to get elected and then go back on their own word

    I see you still have a reading comprehension and civility problem, not to mention still always wrong.

    Carry on; I am not wasting my time with someone who can't read or comprehend.

    Yes of course you continue to live in a fantasy world parroting the same tired liberal baloney.

    '...Democrats will lie outright to implement their failed ideological programs and then demagogue(?) their opponents on the issue of increasing taxes...'

    Your words, not mine. Just pointing out a little dumb hypocrisy on your part-or is it a failing memory? So who lied, a Democrat or a Republican?

    Oh and by the way, a 'demagogue' is a noun. You can't 'demagogue' something.
    Always happy to educate those whom America's education system has failed. No need to thank me. Carry on.

    Once again your inability to comprehend facts and the historic record are painfully on display.

    Bush did say "no new taxes." Then the Democrats cajoled and bargained with him into passing into law new taxes because Democrats love to raise taxes and pass laws that empower them and make individuals dependent wards of the state.

    Bush rightly and correctly lost his re-election bid which should send a very clear message to anyone else stupid enough to listen to Democrats and Liberals.

    So tell me again what this has to do with what I stated above?

    Carry on.

Of course this turned out to be a false promise and lie on the Democrats side who implemented the tax increases without ever considering the cuts as promised.

    The lesson Reagan learned and which Republicans need to continue learning is that Democrats will lie outright to implement their failed ideological programs and then demagogue their opponents on the issue of increasing the taxes.

    Carry on; your inability to get even the simplest facts correct is an example of the laziness that defines Liberal ideology.

    Your inability to comprehend American politics is on par with your lack of facts or a grasp of the historic record; par for the course for illiterate Liberals.

    But again, Reagan struck a deal with a powerful Speaker of the House who desperately wanted to raise taxes and spend, spend and spend. His deal was a tax hike for massive spending cuts.

    Unfortunately and true to Liberals nature, they had lied and the spending cuts never came.

    Reagan learned his lesson the hard way as well; never trust or believe a Liberal. They are liars.

    What is wrong with the idiot claims by Buffet?

    "While the poor and middle class fight for us in Afghanistan, and while most Americans struggle to make ends meet, we mega-rich continue to get our extraordinary tax breaks," wrote Buffett, who has mentioned in past interviews that the rich should pay higher taxes.

    They presume that the money would be better spent by complete and utter morons who pander to lobbyists and use the abomination of the tax code as way to empower themselves.

    Yo Warren; if you want to throw away your money to politicians, who in God's name is stopping you.

    MESSAGE TO ALL THE RICH IDIOTS LIKE WARREN BUFFET: if you feel you have too much wealth, you can write Uncle Sam a BIG FAT check. Just don't force everyone else to be as stupid or retarded as you are thinking that Government knows what to do with the money.

    Hell, if Buffet wants to jump start the economy; write a freaking check to every one of us who are over the age of 55 for a million bucks and we'll all retire thus improving the job situation and increasing demand.

    Once again what we see here is the "feel-good" caring of an idiot who thinks that forcing everyone to send more wealth to Washington will suddenly make them fiscally responsible and get the economy going again; Buffet is showing is age an senility with remarks like these.

    Just pointing out your hypocrisy. Oh, and quit with the predictable insults and condescension. Are you unable to debate without projecting your own inadequacy?

    More importantly.....what about the AIPAC new media outlets restrictions regarding 81 senators at present in AIPAC Israel? Paid for by the Zionist regime........with American tax payers money.........aye the stupidity of America!
    http://www.presstv.ir/usdetail/194399.html
    But I doubt you can access this information on the internet restrictions in AIPAC America. I am unable to get access again unless I go to Press TV/us desk. But even Google stops access ..... site not found!
    Even the UK are trying to cut off this means of news...ie Press TV bank accounts closed. Press TV were unable to pay reporters etc.
    So much for democracy!

    Or what about Ron Paul.....coming highest in all polls ...... not even mentioned...under....."others".

    Or Libya....and the American troops on the ground...and even then....

    Or these bad Palestinians murderers.......or is it?
    http://undertheradarmedia.wordpress...s-scrubs-story-about-idf-impersonating-hamas/
    Please note....an Israeli news media mistake for all to see!

    Afghanistan......only this month......more than 100 American killed by the Taliban.....and in ten years of war......more American lives wasted, killed for AIPAC America for no gain!

    People ignorant of any facts...speak of conspiracies......its not a conspiracy if the facts are there for all to see.

    But you have a nice day......you deserve, for "The stupidity of America" all that's coming!

    Only rich liberals (like Hollywood idiots and one shot wonder authors) make the move usually to Europa after they make their fortunes here.

    We're stuck with the rest of them.

    Why would I want my taxes raised? I want to keep the money I earn so I can take care of my family. I have to pay for my house, my car, vacations, the kids' college expenses, etc.

    Why give my money to the government when most of it is wasted? $500 hammers for the military? $100 million to study if men prefer blonds or brunettes? Please ...

    Well given our safety nets are insufficient, if we raised taxes on working people, the middle class, it would starve us out. And our gov;t would not spend the higher taxes on the People, but on war mongering to enrich our elites.
