Yes, but why do they want to raise taxes? Is it possible to solve our economic problems without raising taxes? Could these problems be solved through responsible government spending?

Have you heard anyone but muddy say that they are going to raise taxes?

Don't be so stupid.

Great nations have toppled over being broke in history. We are broke, folks. Even with cutting pork and trimming government excesses, we're broke. A potentially hostile and adversarial foreign nation has entire too much to do with keeping us afloat. We pay China billions in interest. The S&L scandal money debt is still there. Decaying roads/infrastructure and over-burdened schools.

Oh, we're raising taxes for sure.

This poster is a troll, and e-man has flushed him out. Good for e-man.

At this point in the game, people have decided. They can also do their own research on the subject instead of going to an Obama endorsed site and ask us to give them reasons to vote. Join the board and read the threads if you want to learn something. I felt the same way as E-man's first post.

So you've closed the polls? He invited discussion on a political discussion message board.

He did join the board, and was attempting participation. And is this an Obama endorsed site? I know this site endorses Obama. Are we requiring loyalty oaths?

The night before last, in between self-indulgent rantings about himself, E-man was agreeing with a right-wing troll, who has been banned under several names. Who has posted nothing but invective and hate speech. I wouldn't exactly endorse his powers of perception.
