rush talking about tax cuts.

[DesertFlower]

doesn't he realize a tax cut isn't going to help you if you don't have a job?

[Rosa Luxemburg]

1. he can't think straight with the oxycontin

[tekisui]

2. Of course he is, that is all they know.

[orleans]

3. just got home, cnn is running him "live"

maybe i'll watch for awhile

...um...liberals unhinged?

...um...he "tweaks" liberals?

[Taverner]

4. WTF? Did they ever do this for Mike Malloy? Randi Rhoads? Al Franken? Ed Shultz?

[inna]

18. exactly!!! WTF, CNN??? i'm just outraged! nt

[Wapsie B]

9. Liberals unhinged?

Oh wait, I was thinking of an old website.

[Theres-a]

13. Outrageous

That pig,I had to change the channel.His hateful bloated face was making me nauseus.

[WatchWhatISay]

5. Wheres a good stroke or heart attack when you really need it

He looks like he's on the verge, though

[NC_Nurse]

6. He doesn't care. He doesn't care about ANYONE but himself. He's just giving

them the same old shit they love to hear. It has served him well all of these years. Cha-ching!

[hfojvt]

7. a tax cut is also not gonna help you if you already don't pay taxes

which is true of families of four making less than $40,000 a year, and could go up to $50,000 a year if they put $10,000 in their IRA account.

He doesn't care if a tax cut helps YOU though, because he knows that a tax cut will help HIM.

[DesertFlower]

10. exactly. nt

[Urban Prairie]

20. $400 million for 8 years?

Why would Flush need a tax cut?

What he gets paid, for what he does (verbal diarrhea) is obscene.

No liberal should tune him in, even out of curiosity, I have never listened to a single turd he has bloviated live on the radio.

[hfojvt]

30. Need is one thing

but if you made $50 million a year would you want to pay $20 million in federal taxes or $17 million? The difference between a top rate of 39% and a top rate of 33% is about $3 million for him.

[Wapsie B]

8. But he's still spewing supply side bullshit.

The tax cuts are for the 1% ers not the rabble, the idea being that will create jobs for the unwashed masses.

[onethatcares]

11. anyone ever seen one of those jobs ?

the ones the tax cuts created. I would think after the reagan years and the bushie years, we'd be a swimmin in jobs due to the tax cuts and everyone would be living high on the hog.

[Wapsie B]

16. Exactly. We've tried that political philosophy for far too long.

Time to go with what works.

[Hansel]

28. I believe you have to go to China, Mexico or India to see them.

So, no.

When I was getting my MBA, there were a steady stream of small business owner presenters telling us how as soon as they were to or had become profitable that they would or planned to get rid of the people working for them and outsource the jobs to Mexico or China or India to save money on labor. Basically they were bragging about "using" their employees to build their businesses and then dumping them so they could become rich. Tax cuts just helped to get them to that point that much sooner. It was amazing how ruthless these pompous jerks are.

I would argue that tax cuts have the exact opposite impact than what the right wingers claim. To these slobs it's all about making money, not creating American jobs. These guys would have done just fine keeping the employees they had, but they were greedy.

[JBoris]

12. Rush is a rich selfish radical elitist, who wants to continue to shrink the middle class.

He makes me so angry sometimes, I feel like punching a puppy. (well not really but I do get really angry)

[DesertFlower]

14. my husband had to

walk away. he couldn't take it.

[acmavm]

15. Obviously his fuckwit fans don't understand that he doesn't give a damn

about their ignorant asses. And the tax cuts he's for are for people like himself, not the little dim bulbs that are his fans.

I am so grateful that I'm not that stupid. One of the biggest blessings of my life.

[Vinca]

19. Rush is rich because they're dumb. nt

[acmavm]

24. Yeah, that's the down and dirty of what I was trying to say.

[rvablue]

22. Yep. A little extra jublilation I will feel when the tax cuts for the rich expire

will be imagining Pigboy having to cut a much larger check to the government.

[inna]

17. WTF is going on anyway??

i'm listening to CNN right now; they've been showing his speech for the last, like, half an hour, commercial free, as if it's some sort of presidential address to the nation. this is just surreal. who cares about what he has to say???

i cannot believe CNN, they're as bad as Faux.

[DesertFlower]

21. who cares?

the 20 million people who listen to him every day. isn't that frightening?

[RobertSeattle]

27. I think it is 20 million total in a week

So if you listen to him for 5 minutes you count.

[G_j]

23. time to contact CNN: www.cnn.com/feedback/

I'm going to do that right now,
www.cnn.com/feedback/

[inna]

[orleans]

29. Bush Got $2 Trillion In Tax Cuts and This is His Job Creation Record

He created a whopping net 3 million new jobs in 8 years, with the population growing 22 million during his presidency.

OTOH, Clinton RAISED taxes on the wealthy, and during his presidency, 23.1 million new jobs were created. IOW, Big Dog created 3 million PER YEAR!

Here's the link:
