AJ, you seem confused.
You've claimed I haven't addressed the subject at hand.
You've claimed my only posts here were about footers.
And yet, you appear to be upset in this thread about the subject matter of another thread. And you appear to be upset about footers.
Do you want to take a minute to sort your position out?

Oh, stand-by everybody, Obama is going to have another press conference at 11:00 AM. I know you can't wait.
Let me guess.
The Republicans did not accept my deal; they want to sabotage the economy in order to win an election...

In further response to "SONNY"
the MAIN reason housing collapsed was the giving of mortgages to those that EVERYONE KNEW COULDNT REPAY IT
We are RIGHT BACK THERE AGAIN!
Are'nt we?

Sonny, if you want me to read your post, lose the sigline.
I mean "footer."
Otherwise, I can't be bothered to read what you say.

Wait, talking about footers is OK now?
Excellent. Yours suck, and the fake footer thing you do is a pussy move all the way.
That feels so much better than talking about stupid economic shit. I'm glad you turned me on to that.

Funny thing is Obama's ability to judge people, he thought from the look of Joe, his house, his 'hood and his kid, that he HAD to be one of His people...

does THIS makes sense to any NORMAL PERSON?
6 months ago,
CHANGE: Obama Then: Raising Taxes In A Recession Is The Last Thing You Want To Do.
Now........Related: Dealing With Obama On Budget: “Beyond Bizarre.” cause all he wants to do is RAISE TAXES
when DUMZ were in leadership role, THEY couldnt pass TAX INCREASES
Obama forced the tax cut extension cause he said TAX INCREASES ARE BAD in a BAD ECONOMY and KILL JOBS
Now he wants to INCREASE TAXES!
THIS MAKES SENSE???????????

Speaking as a Brit, I think that this thread shows everything that is wrong with political debate in the US. Would it kill you to stick to the topic and not flame each other about your sigs?

This was JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO
President Obama’s Own Words Come Back to Haunt Him in Budget Tax Hike Fight, “You Don’t Raise Taxes in a Recession”
Unemployment at 9.2% and the President wants to raise taxes?
TWS — In a 75-minute meeting Sunday night, President Obama once again demanded that more than $1 trillion in tax increases be part of any deficit reduction package attached to a vote on the debt ceiling. In the session, Obama rejected a Republican proposal to seek $2.5 trillion in spending cuts and reforms, and insisted on higher taxes on businesses and wealthy individuals.
It’s a curious position, given the anemic economic growth and rising unemployment. And it’s even more curious considering that Obama himself has warned about the deleterious effects of raising taxes in a struggling economy.
In August 2009, on a visit to Elkhart, Indiana to tout his stimulus plan, Obama sat down for an interview with NBC’s Chuck Todd, and was conveyed a simple request from Elkhart resident Scott Ferguson: “Explain how raising taxes on anyone during a deep recession is going to help with the economy.”
Obama agreed with Ferguson’s premise — raising taxes in a recession is a bad idea. “First of all, he’s right. Normally, you don’t raise taxes in a recession, which is why we haven’t and why we’ve instead cut taxes. So I guess what I’d say to Scott is — his economics are right. You don’t raise taxes in a recession. We haven’t raised taxes in a recession.”

This is NOW
AP Fact-Check: Obama Is Proposing Huge Tax Hikes On Low- And Middle-Income Families…
But hey, why let facts get in the way of good ole fashioned class warfare?
WASHINGTON (AP) — Call it eliminating an unfair break, or removing an unjust loophole, or even “taking a balanced approach.” Just don’t call it raising taxes.
As they work toward a must-do deal with Republicans on paring trillions from the deficit in order to raise the nation’s debt limit, President Barack Obama and Democrats are saying almost anything to avoid the politically toxic pronouncement that they want to increase taxes. . . .
But it’s on taxes that the rhetoric is the most heated, and the most skewed. Analysts say that in recent decades Republicans have largely succeeded in turning taxes into a dirty word, and the government it pays for is increasingly viewed with disfavor, too. So that even while voters like some of the taxpayer-funded services they get — like Social Security — arguing in favor of taxes per se is a nonstarter.
For opponents, “it’s an easy argument to win because nobody wants to pay higher taxes,” said Brendan Daly, former spokesman to House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi and now a public relations executive at Ogilvy Washington.
Proposals under consideration include raising taxes on small business owners and potentially low- and middle-income families. You won’t hear about that from Obama. Instead the president focuses on the very rich, and speaks euphemistically. Here are a few of the phrases the president has used of late to talk about what amounts to raising taxes for some:
— “What we need to do is to have a balanced approach where everything is on the table.”
— “We need to take on spending in the tax code.”
— “The tax cuts I’m proposing we get rid of are tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires; tax breaks for oil companies and hedge fund managers and corporate jet owners.”
— “You can’t reduce the deficit to the levels that it needs to be reduced without having some revenue in the mix.”
