Obama May Levy $15 Billion Tax on Oil Company Profit
This is a real solution. No pandering for a "summer vacation" that just shuffles money around with no real benefit. This is a proposal that any real American seeking fairness will fully support. Good for Obama!

LOL . Obama just asked for the same thing Hillary has been calling for :
except she is calling for a baseline on profits, above which the tax would kick in seriously, it is a good idea, but not something that can be done by Executive order, like the gas tax holiday.

hmm. Obama is calling for taxing on consumption?
or raw materials tax? That is a bit different than a tax on the windfalls profits.

What, you don't have enough of your own anti Obama threads? I post a positive thread and you come in here with your Republican spewing bullshit once again. Sorry man but you have turned into a right wing sheep.

now we're supposed to pick thread posting by sides?
That definately limits me with the zillions of anti-Hillary threads I made truthful comments, sure they are from my advocate p.o.v. It wasn't "bashing" Obama,like others bash Hillary here.I make few anti-Obama posts per se. I just try to provide some balance. sorry if i crashed the party

Naturally i am gonna advocate for Hillary. I will critize Obama, and say he is not as electable, but i do it with some basis of facts behind my statements - or at least quote Hillary campaign points. I don't bash simply to bash, I will try to comabt some of the Obama bias here. Have you read the Hillary bashing? the name calling? The sheer amount of hatred thrown at her? Is there really a need for me to start pro-Obama threads? don't we have plenty of those? Have I always sai I will support Obama in the General. do those on the Obama side say the same? do you? I'm prolly the last Hilllary supporter you have left that posts here regurally. If you want an echo chamber, then i'll leave I'll ask you to mark threads then where you want only 1 side to post. Really dude - what did I say here that you find so offensive?

I start very few threads, and the one's I did on Wright were timely, the day new devolpments came out on that sad saga. redundant? I see the same old same old anti-Hillary talking points, and the same old despicable name calling on me and her. I don't complain. I don't run to you saying I've been insulted by other members. I hit back at what they say, not what I am called personally. I try not to get personal in my responses, I may use sarcasm, but I don't hurl insults. It's not my place - especially since I am the last of the Mohicans who post pro Hillary stuff here- to praise Obama. You got tons of those threads. I try to provide a counter take, at least so it's not an echo chamber here. So yes, I am pro-Hillary, and yes I'm gonna attack Obama on policy. But I don't attack the man. can you say the same for others here?

But enough of that, let's try and separate the attacks and positive stories, I know it'll be hard, but it makes everyone happy if they are apart. |
