I've already said that I support the elimination of the Bush tax-cuts, and I support the Buffet Rule--even if they apply to me... What part of that is unclear to you?
I know what you've said in the past, and the question is: Are you taking advantage of the Bush Tax cuts currently, even though you oppose them, or are you sending in your taxes calculated as if they had been eliminated?

I never complained about the good it does...I complain about the fact that it was part of the $5 TRILLION he added to the deficit by not paying for it--just like the two unnecessary wars that he didn't pay for. Of course, the two unnecessary wars are the REAL "gift that keeps on giving"...How many TRILLIONS going forward will have to be spent on VA care, disability, and related expenses for the wounded and injured from those two UNNECESSARY wars? (I don't begrudge that care--on the contrary...But it's another "unbudgeted expense" that Bush left us with...And if the UNNECESSARY wars had not been started then the expenses for the aftermath would not have been necessary in the first place.)

But thanks for playing... :bash
You're against them, yet you take advantage of them.
Scott Brown has voted against obamacare as a whole, yet he's taking advantage of a single clause within it.
If he's a hypocrite, you are too.
Or, you both are following the current law of the land while expressing your opinions how best to modify it for the future.
Be careful with that hammer, it might bounce off my bucket and rattle yours a bit too.

Its actually not possible to calculate your taxes using higher rates and send in too much money. The IRS will re-calculate it and return the money. I missed the $400 making work pay tax credit in 2010 and they sent me a check I didn't ask for.
I suppose you could send it marked for reducing the debt, they have a program for that.
C'mon LJ, just write a check for $15 Trillion. We all know how wealthy you claim you are! LOL
BTW all Politicians are freaking Hypocrites. SOBs
If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2
Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.
Nah, I'll just sit and watch the hypocrisy of the Republicans. It's so much more entertaining. Besides, why should I write a check to cover the bad judgement, stupidity and hypocrisy of Bush's legacy?

Should Scott Brown drop coverage on his daughter because he disagrees with the stupidity and entitlement-serving mindset of the Obama administration?

Oh I get it, it's the deficit that you are concerned about!
(CBS News) The National Debt has now increased more during President Obama's three years and two months in office than it did during 8 years of the George W. Bush presidency.
The Debt rose $4.899 trillion during the two terms of the Bush presidency. It has now gone up $4.939 trillion since President Obama took office.
But to be fair, some of the debt during Obama's presidency so far was due to a continuation of Bush's policies. So I'm sure things will get better if Obama is re-elected, right?
If Mr. Obama wins re-election, and his budget projections prove accurate, the National Debt will top $20 trillion in 2016, the final year of his second term. That would mean the Debt increased by 87 percent, or $9.34 trillion, during his two terms.
Gee - if our tax policy was the same as it was in the Cayman Islands and Switzerland then there would be no benefit realized by the legal means of placing assets there, right? Huh - go figure - tax policy has consequences regarding the movement of capital; it isn't as simple as looking at a different tax scenario and applying current figures under that scenario to come up with a fictitious number of dollars that have been lost under the existing tax structure.
