Until their is an independent commission to oversea what the hell goes on in congress, its never going to change. NEVER...

That would be ideal. Sad thing, power and money does corrupt even the overseers.

:smile: The rich should pay their share of the taxes:smile: They prosper from this society.:smile:


here's who pays the taxes...

Top 1%
$388,806 and up
39.89%

Top 5%
$153,542 and up
60.14%

Top 10%
$108,904 and up
70.79%

Top 25%
$64,702 and up
86.27%

Top 50%
$31,987 and up
97.01%

Bottom 50%
<$31,987
2.99


Why dont you show how the top 1% incomes have increasd while the bottom %99 has decreased or became stagnant!!!! Trickle down economics dosnt work!!!!! Thats been proven in the Reagan and Bush years....


if you can close your Liberal handbook for a minute...and...do a little research...you will see...that under R Reagan...tax receipts to the treasury...actully increased...as they did under GW Bush...as they did under B Clinton...the difference is under Clinton...the Republicans...wouldn't allow rampant spending...like under Bush...and to a certain extent under Reagan...when spending is held in check...and taxes are cut...the treasury actually takes in more revenue...not less...look it up !!

When will we get it in our minds to unite?

Unfortunately I dont see that anywhere in the near future. When our President is giving a national press conferrence and he refers to the republican party as "they". Doesnt seem like he is looking to unite us.


I remember McCain calling Obama, "That one", during a debate. That was just wrong.


Ma'am I also remember President Obama calling Senator McCain John without first asking if that was alright. I also saw Senator McCain refer to President Obama as Senator Obama at all other points that night. If you'd like to get into a debate on whether or not something is polite you yourself should use the proper mannerisms (ie President Obama and Senator McCain). And, a debate is meant to illicit emotions which could result in someone being impolite. A press conference is not meant to do that and the president went in with his words already formatted. There is a difference between the heat of the moment and a preprepared speech.


You can't even compare Obama calling McCain by his first name with McCain calling Obama "that one".






Yes you can, it was all disrespectful no matter how you look at it. Yes Senator McCain was wrong but so was President Obama. It is a bad reflection on both and even worse a poor reflection on our nation.

If there is enough support, anything is possible. That's assuming that elections are still somewhat legitimate though.

Don't get me wrong. I'm all for it. Our two party system definitely hasn't been working for quite some time.

I disagree. I feel that it's worse to call a black man, "that one".
