first off, let me clarify myself, i'm a huge obama fan. however, McCain made a good choice, you see, he's just trying to win over Hillary clinton supporters by picking that VP. not saying that his VP has any qualifications, it's just to win over obama.
Barack the Magic NEeGRO lives in D.C. The L.A. Times they called him that cause he's not authentic like me.
Yeah the guy from the L.A. paper said he made guilty whites feel good they'll vote for him and not for me cause hes not from da hood.
See, real black men like snoop dogg or me or Farrakhan have talked the talk and walked the walk not come and laid and won
Barack the Magic NEGeRO lives in D.C. The L.A. Times they called him that cause he's not authentic like me cause hes black but not authentically.

Some say Barack's articulate and bright and new and clean the media sure love this guy a white interloper's dream.
But when you vote for president watch out and don't be fooled don't vote the magic NEeGRO in cause...
Cause I wont have nothing after all these years of sacrifice and I wont get justice this is about justice this is about justice, buffet, I don't have no buffet there wont be any church contributions there'll be no cash in the collection plate, no cash money, no walkin' around money...

#cLANdodgers #danielvutran get on my level, nerds.
Its smart for McCain.... i think he will get more of Hillary's old supporters and plus i bet they try and get more votes off sympathy when people find out her son was born with Downs Syndrome and so on.... not to mention it takes some steam out of the democrats who just had their convention and were all totally hyped up. Funny how he waited untill the day after the convention to announce it.
Im actually pretty happy with his choice :) Go McCain :D
#23 Why would it be funny? He could have announced it last night during his speech. That would've been funny. So in a way it was actually more respectful than anything
Oh well yeah of course. Its just a part of balancing campaigns. You can't let one person get an extra week in with their VP pick to talk about the issues and what not. I actually liked McCains ad last night where he congratulated Obama telling him that "tonight was his night". well done
MCCAIN Maintain Current 0% on home sales up to $500,000 per home (couples) McCain does not propose any change in income tax on existing home sales
OBAMA 28% on profit from ALL home sales
How does this affect you? If you sell your home and make a profit, you will pay 28% taxes on.your profit (Capital Gain) If you are planning to retire and would like to down-size your home or move into a retirement community 28% of the money you make (CAPITAL GAIN) from your home will go to taxes. This proposal will adversely affect retiring couples who are counting on the income (CAPITAL GAIN that is currently exempt from income tax) from their home as part of their retirement income.
DIVIDEND TAX
MCCAIN 15% (no change)
OBAMA 39.6%
How will this affect you? If you have any money invested in the stock market, IRA, mutual funds, college funds, life insurance, retirement accounts, or anything that pays or reinvests dividends, you will now be paying nearly 40% of the money earned on taxes if Obama becomes president. The experts predict that 'higher tax rates on dividends and capital gains would crash the stock market yet do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit.
INCOME TAX
MCCAIN (no changes)
Single making 30K - tax $4,500 Single making 50K - tax $12,500 Single making 75K - tax $18,750 Married making 60K- tax $9,000 Married making 75K - tax $18,750 Married making 125K - tax $31,250
OBAMA Reversion to pre-Bush tax cuts (CLINTON TAX INCREASES WOULD BE REINSTATED ) Single making 30K - tax $8,400 Single making 50K - tax $14,000 Single making 75K - tax $23,250 Married making 60K - tax $16,800 Married making 75K - tax $21,000 Married making 125K - tax $38,750
How does this affect you? No explanation needed.
This is pretty straight forward.
INHERITANCE TAX
MCCAIN 0% (No change, Bush repealed this tax)
OBAMA Restore the inheritance tax
How does this affect you? Many families have lost businesses, farms, ranches, and homes that have been in their families for generations because they could not afford the inheritance tax. Those willing their assets to loved ones will only lose them to these taxes.
NEW TAXES BEING PROPOSED BY OBAMA
* New government taxes proposed on homes that are more than 2400 square feet
* New gasoline taxes (as if gas weren't high enough already)
* New taxes on natural resources consumption (heating gas, water, electricity)
* New taxes on retirement accounts and last but not least....
* New taxes to pay for socialized medicine so we can receive the same level of medical care as other third-world countries!!!
Dont forget:
ACCORDING TO NANCY PELOSI we also need to increase Social Security payroll deductions FICA
so illegals can be covered as completely as we are!
ill never understand why people would want to vote for obama... lets tax people who make good money and work hard for it just to give it away to poor people that expect hand outs
that means that when you die, 45% of your assets are taxed and given to the government, instead of your children and family.
also, #28: tax increases are to expand governmental bureaucracies.
obama == large governmental expansion
also for all of those saying mccain is trying to appeal to hillary voters, youre wrong. the majority of hillary supporters are democrat and wouldnt ever think of jumping ship. this is to appeal to moderates - american families who are pro-life and pro-traditionalist who thus far are undecided.
OBAMA FTW

We are all screwed, watch him reinforce the draft or something
rofl, go outside plx
A VOTE FOR THE GOP IS A VOTE FOR HOT CHICKS

obama wants to put a 45% death tax in place.
that means that when you die, 45% of your assets are taxed and given to the government, instead of your children and family.
