Behind the flag? -------Willing to look out for their countrymen when it goes against their own interests...


Thank you for the explanation.

McCain didn't stand behind the flag?

Retaliating against those who attack us isn't standing behind the flag?

Is attacking a country that hasn't attacked us standing behind the flag?

Is sending troops to round up someone who has never attacked the US and wasn't a threat to, standing behind the flag?

In some sense, you could say that each and every single elected official has and hasn't stood behind the flag.

So, your response to people having to pay taxes that they don't like (which seems to be everyone), is to increase the taxes on some, instead of lowering the taxes on all, and cutting spending? Interesting. No. No, it's not.


Well, since the current deficit is running about 4 times the revenue, that means you would need to cut spending 75% and raise taxes to balance.  

The lowering taxes will not work whatsovever, in that if we dont start paying payments we will be paying interest on interest and there goes americas mortgage.

Inumeracy is not the answer.

The 47 percent number is not wrong. The stimulus programs of the last two years — the first one signed by President George W. Bush, the second and larger one by President Obama — have increased the number of households that receive enough of a tax credit to wipe out their federal income tax liability.

Pst... those you just described is what Romney is saying is part of that 47% you keep wanting to demonize.

You need to get with your idol and work out the differences in your definitions.

It was verbal and nonverbal. I don't care about "those people" I think were his words. But sounds ominous. But, I am sure you will make a fool of yourself per the normal. Have at it...



"Those peope" are the leaches on our country. Those who live on the welfare state, not the legal immigrant who needs help while getting started or the divorced woman suddenly needed food stamps and even housing to keep her and her children safe and warm and dry while trying to find a job or go to school.

You know these leaches. Most people nowadays do. These are the leaches Mitt was discussing. He is right. You know they exist and pretending otherwise does not do you, or me or Mitt, justice.

Time to get real. Get real this November 2.

Some of these "leaches" are our moms and dads, grandparents and other family members.

Some have faced hells in their lifetimes that you or I could not even imagine.

Until we have a way of making sure they are taken care of, how do you suggest we get rid of the ones who just use the system out of sheer laziness?

http://www.opposingviews.com/i/politics/2012-election/video-mitt-romney-son-welfare-receiving-mexican-immigrant-mother-says

The GOP presidential ticket of Mitt Romney and Rep. Paul Ryan is fond of attacking 'social entitlements,' but their campaign has failed to mention that Mitt Romney's father George Romney was on "welfare relief" when he first arrived in the U.S., according to an interview with Romney's mother Lenore recorded in 1962.

George Romney was running for governor in Michigan in 1962, so this interview was part of Lenore's effort to help him get elected, which he was (video below).
George Romney was born in Mexico and moved with his family to El Paso, Texas, during the Mexican Revolution, reports addictinginfo.org
The family received $250, food, clothing, and other supplies from the U.S. government. The family later invested some of their money in the stock market and used that cash to send George Romney to college.





So the EVOLVED ROMNEY PHILOSOPHY OF THE SOCIAL CONTRACT HAS BECOME "DEDUCT IT FORWARD".
What's wrong with that?

Then do inform Romney, he is the one disagreeing with you.



I actually don't have direct access to Mr Romney, if you do, you're more than welcome to inform him, if it somehow appeases your conscience, that he disagrees with me.

Ron ..... I think their theory is that when all those out of work people start earning $250k and paying that 'reduced' tax... It'll all work out.
Surely you can see the genius behind that.

Thanks for the W-4 correction.

1. I'm not demonizing them.
2. 47% is the amount of people not having a Federal income tax liability, but my point was that Romney's figure is incorrect in that all those people aren't going to automatically vote Obama. So, when describing those that do not have a Federal Income tax liability, the number is correct. The number is not correct when describing those on the public dole that are going to vote for Obama because he isn't going to reduce the flow from the government spigot.

Again, why cant you read?

They do have a tax liability. The government gives them enough credits to wipe that out.

The 47 percent number is not wrong. The stimulus programs of the last two years — the first one signed by President George W. Bush, the second and larger one by President Obama — have increased the number of households that receive enough of a tax credit to wipe out their federal income tax liability.

If they didnt have a tax liability, they wouldnt have anything to wipe out.

No concern. You seem to insist you know me so well... when you dont because you dont read, you assume.

You want to know about my tax beliefs? go hunting. But never assume you know what you are talking about. Your track record with me is very very bad.

Good Lord. Thus, on net, they have no Federal income tax liability. At the end of the day, the contribution from their income was $0. They can change their W-4's so they don't get income taxes taken out of each paycheck, but they will not get a refund.

Are you just acting that dense?

Ooops... missed part of my OP.

Why is he denigrating 47% of the US when his own grandfather used that very system Romney is complaining about?



Hey Tazzy, George Romney IS Mitt's Father ... Lenore is his Mother. He got the name Mitt ... well ... just look at the map!

Mitt's Father became a well respected, moderate .. highly influential in the passage of civil rights, welfare, Medicare etc. etc ...


No DOUBT his parents are rolling over in their GRAVES!


Why even George Romney's Lt Governer .... has been quoted expressing complete disgust with the Political Environment ... and one would suspect ... will NOT be voting for Mitt ...

But Mitt grew up a privileged kid. No Dount He thinks He is Entitled. To 100 % of the wealth!
