@Steve
it’s sad that foreign policy is one of my top issues when i vote and the fact that the Democrats is the 5 pound bag of poop is a big reason I pull for them(ie it’s much better then the 10 pound bag of poop)
@Faith3
YO and a GREAT good morning to ya
Coffee Steve, they are not misrepresenting the fact that Rosen in his own paper stated loss of deductions
I just know this Rosen is very upset.

*REPORT: Ambassador Stevens Wanted Security Team to Stay in Libya Past August…
The hearing this week should be fun huh?
Mark
The news is the media and cover up Mother Jones , MSNBC and their boy David Corn. David corn should be fire from MSNBC, but he is considered great for this.I just want equal press coverage.On everything
Coffee,
He’s probably ticked because he’s been called into question about the revenue neutral part of his paper.
’60 Minutes’ Report: Chinese Firm Huawei Could Threaten U.S. Security
On Sunday, a 60 Minutes investigation into the Chinese telecommunications and technology company Huawei revealed how the Chinese government could exploit the company’s increasing presence in the United States to spy on U.S. businesses and intelligence networks. The report noted the U.S. government was asleep at the wheel by not protecting a telecommunications industry it used to dominate.
What jobs did BHO save
@Doug Z
what do you honestly think could be said in the 2 lost minutes that could counteract calling 47% of the people lazy victims who have no drive?
On a personal note, more then the actual comments, what struck me about that tape was it confirmed my opinion of Romney as a guy who basically will say or do anything to close the deal, even if he most likely doesn’t believe it.
Faith
Obama said
In fact, Harvard economist Martin Feldstein and Princeton economist Harvey Rosen both concede that paying for Romney’s tax cuts would require large tax increases on families making between $100,000 and $200,000.”
But that’s not true. Princeton professor Harvey Rosen tells THE WEEKLY STANDARD in an email that the Obama campaign is misrepresenting his paper on Romney’s tax plan:
Again spin

th question is why did they cut it and why can we not hear it now.
things that make you go Huuuummmmmmmmm
@Ratboy
Dana if you are still here!
I asked Sharon the other night this same question so now I ask you with all due respect.
As a black pewrson do you find it offensive that the president changed (and changes) his delivery, cadance, and accent when he spoke to the black group in 2007 and still does to a certain extent but not to that extreme.
I know I was offended when Hillary did it and others and I have worked with some that did it depending on who they were with and what setiing they were in.
Just curious.
You mean when Romney did the same exact thing with black people? John Stewart showed a video clip of Romney doing the same thing. Talking to black people about bling bling.
@Faith3
the revenue neutral part of his paper
With the undersatnding I knew just a little about Mr Rosen, the revenue neutal things the GOP & the DNC are putting forth are numbers that anyone can fudge with.
Problem is Faith all the so-called savings the WH has been putting out have been totally destroyed by the new CBO estimates. There is no trillions in savings from Obama care, in fact its going to cost trillions more than thay stated.
Rosen is a well respected economist on both sides. And if he says they are mis using him, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt, not any of th campaigns.
We’re out for lunch, be back soon, who wants Subway?
Mark
Of course it confirmed you opinion you want.
what about the cover up by the media.
Of course you do not care when it goes for a Dem, Lib.
You just do not like it when it goes against your boys
@Mark
The lowest point I can find in
2009…Dec …. 9.9% …. 137,968,000 …. 17.1% …. 83,833,000
to
2012 …. Sep …. 7.8% …. 142,974,000 …. 14.7% …. 88,710,000
a net gain of 5,016,000 job but with 4,877,000.
Now it is because the 4+ million baby boomer retired is why the large number of people are no longer looking for work or they just no longer can get GOV payments. If it is the latter then agree 5 million jobs were created. But how, Obama keeps stating the GOP has been stopping all his plans. But if Obama had made 5 million jobs then why did that number also increase 4+ million.
Did you read his paper? It states right in his paper how much households in the $100,000 range will get back due to a marginal decrease and then states how much they will lose on deductions. Then he adds the two figures together and shows a net increase in taxes. The only spin I see is in that article unless Rosen is now refuting his paper.
ILLEGAL TO SOLICIT FOREIGN DONATIONS
Peter Schweizer and Stephen K. Bannon of the Government Accountability Institute appeared on “Fox & Friends” to discuss the findings of a recent study of potential fraudulent activity related to online campaign fundraising.
Of course the Libs, Demos here will say it came from Fox.It can not be true.
Where is the alphabet media.
Faith3
Rosin is a Demo, Lib. Why does he not know what he wrote. Dems, Libs, Mainstream media will cover.
Hi Coffee,
Get me a turkey sub. As far as Rosen, of course his paper can declare it’s plausible for the revenue to be tax neutral but one of the ways he states in his paper is through the loss of deductions for those making over $100,000 but does state if you make over $200,000, your taxes will come down even with loss of deductions.

Coffee Steve
Why didn’t Hannity ask Romney about the tape?
HE DID!! he asked him and Romney said it was just plain wrong to say and he cares about everyone.

Doug,
I never said he doesn’t know what he wrote. Any person can read it online. It’s pretty evident what he wrote.
