— andy Famous last words of a SCOAMF:
But last week, we had a separate vote on a part of the jobs bill that would put 400,000 teachers, firefighters and police officers back on the job, paid for by asking people who make more than $1 million to pay one-half of 1 percent in additional taxes. For somebody making $1.1 million a year, thatÂ’s an extra $500. Five hundred bucks. And with that, we could have saved 400,000 jobs.Most people making more than $1 million, if you talk to them, theyÂ’ll say, IÂ’m willing to pay $500 extra to help the county. TheyÂ’re patriots. They believe weÂ’re all in this thing together. But all the Republicans in the Senate said no. (Emphasis added).
Occidental? Columbia? Hah-vahd?
To which one of these fine institutions of higher learning do we owe our gratitude for foisting upon the nation a stuttering clustef*ck of a math failure? Or maybe we should spread the wealth and just blame them all, along with his typical white bank vice-president grandmother.
With apologies for the "no math" rule here at the HQ: $1,100,000 x 0.5% = $5,500*
$5,500. Not $500. But what's an order of magnitude between friends now that trillion is the new billion?
But it gets worse:
But even if the president meant to say $5,500, his math continues to pose some challenges. According to the IRS, a total of 235,413 taxpayers earned more than $1 million last year. If each “was willing to pay $[5,]500 extra to help the country,” that would generate only $1.3 billion in revenue — approximately what the federal government spends every three hours. Wouldn’t it be just as patriotic for President Obama to turn off the federal spigot for three hours and dedicate the savings to funding those 400,000 jobs?
... not to mention all the rapes that would be prevented.
Speaking of which, it looks like ol' Slow Joe had the same talking point. If he'd have given them enough detail, I'm sure one of the 4th graders would've called him on it.
* Update: It could be that the half-percent tax only applies to the amount in excess of $1 million, so the $500 in his example would be right (yet still disingenuous). It just exacerbates the second point in that we're not talking about a whole lot of dough here in comparison to what the government spends.

400,000 x $100,000
what's union dues? Like 1%?
x .01
= $400,000,000 for Democrats.
All taken from 235,000 people.

If the 4th graders were a public school audience don't count on them to be able to do the math to call him on it.
And it starts to become clear why public school education has gone down the tubes and they are teaching fuzzy math now instead of the facts--to create a nation of people too damn stupid to understand the ass f*cking the government is giving them.

Yes, but he also is clearing trying to imply that for only $500/yr we would create (well, he actually says "saved") 400,000 jobs.
That's a lie.
On top of that, the comments I've read at NRO suggest there are not enough "millionaires" to fund jobs with that tax increase.

He specifically gave the example of someone being taxed on 1.1 million. That's what his example was, and he said $500 was 0.5% of that figure.
No he didn't he said someone making $1.1 Million. Let's not start making fun of the dumb lying fuck for bad math by using bad math.
His math is correct, it raises $35 Billion over 10 years.
He is selling it as a $500 tax increase, that is the lie.

And, no, I have a pristine, but 10-year-old Jeep. I, and tens of thousands of other working stiffs, probably burned enough gas to power a medium-sized city for a year this morning. They barricaded every entrance to Century City, with no warning. Of course, they can't give any warning because he is so beloved people might swarm to the location to blow kisses at him. Or something.

Yeah, it was a slice. Lucky for me, no one else was in the office when I got there (very late), so I was able to express my feelings loudly and profanely and ask God to smite the motherfucker. I apologized, but explained that it was for the greater good.

The "entire tax code is in dire need of fundamental overhaul," it says, then explains how Romney isn't going to break a sweat trying to reform it: "In the long run, Mitt Romney will pursue a conservative overhaul of the tax system that includes lower and flatter rates on a broader tax bases."
This leaves us wondering how long that "long run" might be and why we should trust him to produce "conservative" reform if he can't be specific about it now.
Details in the plan are scarce. There's a cut in corporate tax rates to 25%, the elimination of the death tax, a maintenance (instead of a cut) of current income-tax rates and a move from global to territorial taxation of corporate profits (that is, U.S. companies would not pay U.S. taxes on profits earned abroad).
One other specific proposal — to eliminate capital-gains and dividend taxes only for those with incomes under $200,000 — could have come from the Obama White House.
All this looks like the thinking of a candidate who believes he has already won his party's nomination and is trying to stay "electable" after thatPosted by: Y-not, supple old fart at October 25, 2011 05:56 PM (5H6zj)

Anyone here familiar with the Todd Willingham case?
Frontline showed two sides to the case but the conclusion was that the guy was innocent and that Perry had dismissed the panel which proved it.
It could be complete bullshit, but it only takes a little bit of bullshit for folks to start questioning it.

If you are of the bottom 47 percent feeders, you probably don't even know, then you don't even realize, I, the top 1 percent, create more jobs, that pay more taxes, oops nix that, as I only pay minimum wage, and the minimum wage earners and the the bottom 47 percent feeders..., never mind.
