AMEN TO THAT !

Raising taxes on the 1% will cover less than 8% of the annual deficit.... not enough money folks ..not enough 1%'ers.

Have to get the rest from the middle class taxpayers ..

No...I dont want there money...Make them reinvest it in this country...Like before Raygun screwed this $hit with " Its going to drip down pretty soon economy"...Tax cuts

I don't think you can have higher taxes on capital gains without indirectly impact middle class taxpayers...through mutual funds, value of stock held through life insurance policies, pension funds or 401K plans...You can't get the theivese ,without also impacting the middle-class taxpayer ..

Rick...Your guy lost..Please get over it, The 3% had there dance and its time they pay the band. And could not be happier with my choice of candidate 

I voted for the man who uses diplomacy first, the military second. "Im you like that"
I voted for the man who believes in the science, not what his priest tells him.
I voted for the man who doesnt talk about how he's going to get Bin Laden and what he's going to do with him when he gets him, but simply gets him.
I voted for the man who believes that my social security is more important than reducing his 9% tax bill to 0.8%
I voted for someone who believes in nation-building in America, not in Iraq.
I voted for a man who has doubled my 401K, who has turned 800,000 job losses per month into 80,000 gains per month.
I voted for the man who ended Ghaddafy's reign of terror without firing a single shot, and who got the Libyan Government to apologize to America when an American was killed.                     I voted for a man who has the free world at his back, not pretending they dont know him.
I voted for a man who dragged himself up by his bootstraps instead of having an investment firm handed to him because his Dad was a rich senator.                                  
I did not vote for the man who had run on a post-truth campaign from day one — outdid himself and crammed 31 bull$hits in 41 minutes in the 2nd debate

My question to you Rick is.... If job creation hinges on tax cuts predominantly for the wealthy and the wealthy have benefited for eleven years now from the lowest tax rates in a couple of generations, where are all the jobs???

Coming from you...?Thank you.....Enjoy the next 4 years because they should  bring the fans to there feet....

Just a coincedence that Hugo Chavez would have voted for the same guy you did. Perhaps the late Saddam Hussein would have voted for the same guy too. Oh, and Russias Putin would have too.

What a lovely crowd you belong to.

Following the announcement of Obama's reelection, Communist Party USA (CPUSA) chairman Sam Webb reaffirm that the election results were in the CPUSA’s favor:

"The Communist Party said a year ago that the 2012 elections would be the main front of the class and democratic struggle, and subsequent events have confirmed that fact. Indeed, we argued ... that defeating right wing extremism was the key to moving the whole chain of democratic struggle forward in the coming period."said Webb..

Russia also expressed optimism in Obama’s reelection. “For Russia, Obama’s victory will be beneficial,” Sergei Markov, a member of the Public Chamber and a former aide to Putin,... “In general, the Kremlin is very positive to learn about Barack Obama's victory in the elections,”

. Now with both the CPUSA and Russia are pleased to have their preferred flexibull candidate in the White House..

...."that defeating right wing extremism was the key to moving the whole chain of democratic struggle forward in the coming period."said Webb..

Note:

Communist leaders frequently used--and still use--the word "forward" ...
