Obama Hasn't Increased Taxes, another liberal lie

I'm not going to continue arguing the FACT that it was the failures of the Bush administration that left the Obama presidency with the "cleaning up after the elephants" task. It's STILL the result of STATES & LOCAL businesses trying to balance their budgets...Quit trying to blame every tax-increase on the federal government and Obama. That's b.s.

And that doesn't include the $750 regressive tax/fine if you can't afford to get health insurance that Obamacare mandates. Nice of Obama to fine the people who are least likely to afford health insurance, those in the bad jobs that don't provide them iwth a decent wage or health care benefits.

Looks like the liberal talking point that Obama hasn't increased taxes is incorrect.

<sarcasm>Of course, this was all Bush's fault, and did not increase taxes on lower or middle class at all </sarcasm>

sarcasm aside....jf you are closer to the truth than SS109.....If you were called in to save a failing company, how would you feel if the failure suddenly became your fault before you were given enough time to get the company back on track? Taking Obama to task for not having an immediate fix for everything that landed in his lap on day one is nothing more than an excuse for conservatives to run the outrage of the day here. Over many administrations there have been varying definitions of what constitutes a "tax"....now, to conservatives, everything is a tax if they can use it to bash Obama.....yet there wasn't a peep out of any of them when Bush was at the helm.

Obama wasn't called in, he actively campaigned for the job.

If he didn't know what he was getting into, that is his fault.

I will agree that the partisanship from both sides gets old and is nonproductive.

Merry Christmas!

Awww jf1....by being voted in by the people, yes he was called......and I'm sure he had a pretty good idea of what he was getting into.....he choose to try and make a difference.....to fix that which was broken and make this nation better for it.....some think he has, some think he hasn't.....but that doesn't make the mess he inherited his fault, only his problem to fix.

And a very Merry Christmas to you......lets hope the new year brings better cooperation between the warring factions of this nation......a girl can hope can't she?
