Well since I'm not earning $200K/year Romney says I'm not a middle-income American!?!

I'm sorry, I'm still a registered Republican, but Mitt, you need to wake up & go out and see America some time, it can be a pretty cool place.

Romney is increasingly stepping on his own sack with some of his comments. Get ready for 4 more years.....

Well, anyone making $250K (or $200K) is a "millionaire or billionaire" according to Obama. :ohno: :roll:

I alway thought you were low class, not lower class.

Since you used quotes, let's see one instance where he actually said that. :coffee:

It's called a link...you click on it.

If I'm not a middle income earner, that means I'm a lower....

You may be middle class, but you sure are dense. I was asking Baldy to show where Obama said people making 200K are billionaires.

Well, with the world melting down into a Jihad and an Ambassador just getting BF'ed and assasinated, wouldn't you have second thoughts too?

Nice try (sort of), but could you show me where he said a billionaire and someone making 200K are the same thing? Thx.

Sry, didn't know you weren't able to decipher that making the "rich" like "millionaires and billionaires" pay their "fair share" included the poor saps making $200,000 to $250,000 a year. It's in Obama's "plan". Check it out sometime and become a more informed voter. :roll:

I never said it didn't include tax hikes on the lower income bracket, and neither did Obama.

Who gets blamed in his likely second term? You can only ride the Bush blame train for so long. I keep hearing ads that Obama has the plan, he's got the answers.....just like '07 when he was campaigning. Clever, but risky to keep his solutions under wraps for this long. :coffee:

A paltry 75,000 jobs gained a month the last few months is shockingly worse than the 250,000 a month jobs lost in the last months of the Bush administration, I agree, Obama is a novice in fucking up the economy compared to Bush, so let's just put another Bush in there just to make nice folks like baldy and henny penny and not to mention all those well meaning Iowa tards feel better about their neverending conkaholism.

Was I the only one who noticed this from the same article...
President Barack Obama has defined "middle class" as income up to $250,000 a year.
So they agree on the number, but it's only Romney who is singled out? :|

BLS doesn't show the true bottom until 2009. We've made some progress if you simply look at the graphs, but are the jobs lost equal to the jobs being created? How many people lost $60K jobs to work at Home Depot for $10-$15/hr? How many people simply punched out of the workforce completely? How many boomers decided that this most recent layoff might lead to an early unplanned retirement? Do you think the problems in the US might have somehow correlated with the meltdown of the Eurozone, maybe a worldwide business cycle? Problems with Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece, and Spain along with downturns in GB, Germany, and France?
