Re: 2012 Election

Let me try to help you understand my points. Ford Motor Company never said a bad word about General Motors during their impending doom. They never tried to define GM as losers or buffoons. Ford rightfully dislikes GM, their traditional competitor, but instead of bashing GM... Ford defended their own...

Re: 2012 Election

I'm a libertarian and have little or no voice in this debate. My post was full of questions about this campaign not an endorsement. I'm serious why such a big shift in Connecticut? A solid blue state. My description of Romney's demeanor is fairly accurate from the point of view of an independent vot...

Re: 2012 Election

News flash. Look at the polling from a solidly blue state, Connecticut. Obama with a 6 point lead ! But wait.....Obama won Connecticut with a 23 point lead in 2008 . Scary isn't it? Losing support on the east coast? NY Times not doing their job? Before the debate Obama and the MSM repeatedly, for se...

Re: 2012 Election

There are no tax breaks or incentives for moving jobs overseas. There never has been. These are not "incentives to leave the US" but they are the same normal deductions allowed if you were moving your business across the street, moving across a state line or closing US operations and movin...

Re: 2012 Election

winner - loser whatever Did anyone notice that President Obama looked as old as Romney? A president whom has access to any kind of food that he wants should not look like a desiccated corpse. His face has deep depressions and his eyes were sad with dark circles surrounding. Serious something is wrong.

Re: 2012 Election

I just want to point out to our two presidential candidates that until budget cuts reach 1 trillion there is no savings to be spent elsewhere, it's just less borrowing. And China hold less than half of that debt and they have begun to divest themselves of what they do have. True. China only holds 8...

Re: Blogs about KC visits

He really picked up on our culture of unique neighborhoods. HITS - I appreciate that he acknowledged our quirky roads, parks, parkways, etc. that embrace the rolling hills and valleys. Compared to Omaha where they tried to hard to pave perfectly wide boring roadways on a perfect grid. MISS - althoug...

Re: 2012 Election

Redistribution of wealth is a folly parallel to the government printing money to stimulate growth. Neither work. More printed money or taxation doesn’t mean more growth. Printed money or taxation won’t increase rewards for investment, entrepreneurship, business hiring, and hard work. Keeping more of...

Re: 2012 Election

Your red / blue tax statement is correct as defined by the 16th amendment ... allows the Congress to levy an income tax without apportioning it among the states or basing it on Census results. As for the power of the states. Only the states have the power to call for a constitutional convention. It ...

Re: 2012 Election

So Missouri is taking the wealth from say....California? Nonsense. Aren't they broke? North Dakota is taking wealth from say .... Illinois? Aren't they broke? Which red state is taking from which blue state? Please examples. If this redistribution, that you defend, between blue and red, actually tro...

Re: 2012 Election

When will (you people #-o ) democrats and republicans, equally, figure out that this scheme of taking wealth from the people who reside in their own sovereign states and sending it to a central government to redistribute is ineffective. We as states should only fund the affairs of state/military, in...

Re: 2012 Election

-The U.S. government debt, which topped $16 trillion for the first time at the close of business on Friday, now equals approximately $136,260 for every household in the country.

The IRS should send each household a bill asking for payment each time they send out tax forms.
