Being Right can be Disappointing.

McCain/Palin voter support seems to be slipping away gradually like leaves from a maple tree in Autumn. Although no one openly agrees with polling results that favor the opposition, hardass conservatives must be munching Rolaids these days.

Their candidate has not galvanized the red states, the stock market declines are making voters wonder whether unfettered greed (i.e., Capitalism) is really the best system for America, and the camel is in the tent which is sliding down a slippery slope. Dark days are certainly ahead...

But the majority of you Maalox drinkers should have heart. President Obama will not be raising your taxes. It is those poor shmucks who are earning over one million USD per year that he will be targeting.

Think of poor Tina Fey, whose career stock has risen with her recent return to SNL, playing Sarah Palin, will burst like the housing bubble.

I suggest that Republican loyalists would do well do pray that Obama remains healthy during the next term or two.

"Poor shmucks earning over one million USD per year" pay experts (and lobbyists) to help them avoid taxes. It is the middle class who will bear the brunt of Obama tax increases. Don't forget that Obama has denounced "middleclassedness." Also true redistribution of wealth involves more than progressive taxing. If I read Obama correctly, it probably means confiscation of assets.

You are reading tea leaves instead of listening what he said to joe the Plumber. Joe was playing drama queen because he complained that the (unspecified) tax increase Obama favors would keep him from buying a business. That was BS - he was just busting balls.
I hope some of those ill-gotten gains are confiscated. Let's start with Cheney and his oil cronies.

You can't help youself in exactly making my point. That's why it's called "knee-jerk" libralism.

Call me names all you want; it doesn't change the truth.
BTW, What part of the body are you big oil sycophants jerking?

When you and BO confiscate profits from the oil companies remember that you are also bleeding money from your pension funds, IRAs, mutual funds, and 401Ks. (One of Obama's advisors has already advocated confiscating our 401K money and giving it to SSI.)

Please cite the source of thus quote.

Hey, those confiscated profits from the oil companies better be re-distributed to low income pensioners (like me) or we will march on Washington with pitchforks and tumbrils.

Just as I thought. Here is another comment posted on that site:

"The committee was hearing as many views as it could find in order not to possibly miss something that might make sense before deliberating on any course of action at all.

Arbitrarily selecting only one of the persons testifying with a view and drawing all sorts of imaginary consequences as a done deal is panic mongering of the worst kind."

I couldn't have said it better.
