Your wrong. while not huge tax breaks, 95% paid up to $800 a year less in federal income tax under Obama. ( the payroll tax cut is a whole other matter) Obama also extended the Bush tax cuts. The fact of the matter is the vast majority of Americans are paying less income tax under Obama.
Okay, I'm wrong about taxes (with the exception of extending the Bush tax cuts because that's not change) ... anything else? Still doesn't amount to much change.
no you are correct, the cut was in SS not in fed income tax. once again the idiots in washington messed up. Why would they reduce the income on a program that is already in trouble? drilling a bigger hole in the boat won't keep it afloat longer.
Since Butters (incorrectly) wrote:
didn't lower taxes on the middle and lower class
it is YOU who are wrong. SS tax is still a tax. Butters didn't mention "income".

Watch the news, we are in the process of leaving Iraq by the end of the year. (except for 5000 troops)
Yes, Obama is abiding by the treaty that *Bush* signed with the Iraqis for withdrawal...and your point is?

Since you asked, Obama never promised to get us out of Afghanistan. He always said the fight should be against those who attacked us on 911 and not Iraq.
Watch the news, we are in the process of leaving Iraq by the end of the year. (except for 5000 troops)
I didn't mention what Obama promised, just what Obama hasn't changed. As far as leaving Iraq, I'll believe it when I see it (and determine what the 5,000 troops are doing). After all, Guantanamo Bay is still open.

Exactly, the OP said he was not. Did you also notice the OP was wrong on income taxes and Afghanistan?

That was the SocSec tax reduction, not income tax.

5k troops isn't 'out of Iraq', and SocSec tax isn't income tax.
You're 0 for 2.

The word "income" did not appear in Butters' OP rant, he just mentioned taxes.
... didn't lower taxes on the middle and lower class,
Fact is that TAXES have gone down on the middle and lower class.

I said no such thing. I said we haven't ended the war in Iraq. As of this moment, we haven't.
PS: If we do end the war in Iraq based on something from Bush under Obama it isn't change.

This is correct.
PS: Just because you don't agree with it, doesn't make it a rant.

Is the below information not true?

President Obama has also signed two major pieces of tax-cutting legisltion into law. The first, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, included a variety of tax cuts that benefited nearly every single American household. ARRA contained the Making Work Pay tax credit that directly reduced a family’s income tax bill by up to $800, which, overall, reduced tax revenue by about $116 billion. It included expansions of the child, earned income, American Opportunity, and first-time homebuyer tax credits. ARRA patched up the alternative minimum tax, providing $70 billion in tax cuts, and cut a wide array of business taxes, together totaling another $60 billion.
All told, the Recovery Act included $243 billion worth of tax cuts through 2012.
Nearly two years after signing his first big tax cut bill into law, President Obama completely outdid himself by signing the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010, commonly known as the December 2010 tax deal. The biggest element of the December deal was the extension, for two additional years, of all the Bush tax cuts and alternative minimum tax relief, at a two-year combined cost of more than $400 billion.
In addition, the deal extended a variety of business tax cuts and incentives, which reduced revenues by some $150 billion, and it cut the estate tax—a tax paid by only a very few super-wealthy, massive estates—by $65 billion. The December tax bill also cut the payroll tax paid by employees by 2 percentage points, delivering more than $110 billion in tax cuts to working Americans.
You are straight up wrong, all these screaming tea baggers wanting a tax cut, and they don't even know they got one.
no you are correct, the cut was in SS not in fed income tax. once again the idiots in washington messed up. Why would they reduce the income on a program that is already in trouble? drilling a bigger hole in the boat won't keep it afloat longer.
