The 57 reference is a brilliant one. Go watch the original Manchurian Candidate to understand why, if you don't already know.

Oh, since there is not much time left and it is a long movie, you could always just google "Manchurian Candidate" and "Heinz 57."

Because FICA is not technically a tax, increased Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid costs – the latter being especially obvious under Obama’s plan, are not included in his “no new taxes for middle class” double speak.

If Obama loses the election, America will be RACIST!

Funny, Obama's black libertarian theology is just like the KKK, only this time it's against the white people.

In the future Obama’s fourth year in power, all of us shall be classified as “rich” so that the Democrats can TAX US ALL!!!

That's one of the questions I ask in this post? Or will he just get investigated?

No memories... Bill Clinton promised Middle Class Tax Cut (IMO, had not intention of keeping, but had to run to the CENTER - Just like Barry is; wake up fools). Bill dropped his promise quicker... well, pick your own analogy or metaphor.

There are 2 camps...

The Fools/Clowns that delude themselves into believing these LIES (IMO) again (especially now with the economy bad, at best you'll get another 1 time stimulus check, not a Permanent Tax Cut to allow you to keep more of your OWN MONEY).

Then there are those other folks... Who might just see those WELFARE handouts to those not actually paying the Federal Income Tax though...

It is an absolute shame so many are willing to SELL THEIR VOTE for $1.36 a day ($500.00 Tax Credit). I state is blatantly in that fashion because I do not think that some who have allowed themselves to be sucked in (IMO) to Obama's bait-and-switch (Spread the wealth) plan without considering the long term consequences of what his overall policies ($1 Trillion in additional Spending). What good is that $1.36 a day going to do you/them if more and more jobs are lost and inflation goes back to the double-digit rates of the Carter era?!?! Some of these folks are voting themselves right out of their job!

If Barack believes that everyone (including those who DO NOT PAY ANY FEDERAL INCOME TAX) should have an extra $500/year, then why doesn't he put forth a plan to exempt the first $7,100 of wages from the FICA Tax (7,100 @ 7% = $497)? That isn't "Redistribution" and doesn't want anyone to permanently have the Tax Cut, just wants to "Buy Votes" of some by promising to send them a Check!

The purpose of the Tax Code is to RAISE FUNDS NEEDED TO COVER CONSTITUTIONALLY ALLOWED GOVERNMENT FUNCTIONS/ACTIVITIES, NOT "SPREADING THE WEALTH!"

I don’t get the “57″ reference. Is it just before my time?
