That is just the start, that number will creep down to 80K when he realizes that he cant pay off the debt by only taxing those who make over 112K. He has no economic sense.

I make more than that. Wife ~ 110K, Me~170K.

Why don't you address the issue? Always getting side tracked with unrelated clutter.

Bush is poison for Republicans - there are other election races across the country & President Bush isn't being asked to speak. When has that ever happened? A sitting president asked to stay hidden out of sight.

Republicans are going underground it is so bad.

Political Radar: Obama Considering Larger Denver Stage
What's pathetic is McCain's anemic support and the disinterest and apathy plaguing the GOP. That's pathetic.

And remember, there is free food. Where there is free food, there is a Democrat.

LOL

Free food will bring them in by the truckoads. Then they can let them stay all night for free and destroy the building too.

Dems are all about free and all they need to do it say " get your free hot dogs here" and they will get out of their chair and away from their wide screen and go.

I am already starting on a plan to counter the new taxes Obama is going to hit us with, should I count on paying 10% more?------hahh with him it will be an additional 30%.

You gotta remember something, ever go to a carnival like place where they have greasy food served by a tootless lady and a man with a piggy tail? Well, this convention will be like that, free food, free nights stay, there will be doctors on duty for all the free healthcare and you will be able to pick up vouchers to steal others money, as long as you vote for Obama everything will be free!!!

Do you really think there are 45,000 brainless liberals that would go see this man congratulate John McCain?

For some reason people cannot grasp that Obama has went down hill recently ever since people have realized what a phony liar he is.

Obama the tax monger is coming to a wallet near you!

In Washington state, gubernatorial challenger Dino Rossi chose “GOP party” rather than “Republican” and the Republican candidate for insurance commissioner is running with no party label at all. Bush is poison all right.

The trouble with you're argument is that you & Republicans would be thrilled if McCain have gatherings of that kind of support. In other words would you call McCain's supporters as "desperate" if they want to see him & listen to his words?

Republicans don't even use "GOP" in LA [there isn't any identifying information except "conservative" - but it has been like that even before Bush became president.
