My biggest problem with the man is that you cannot trust what he
says. Every time he opens his mouth he contradicts what he has told
you previously. For example he said he would give everybody a tax
cut, some people have not started to receive it yet and he is taking
out of the budget.


Apparently the tax cuts are in effect. I don't have an income, so I
didn't notice, but my youngest son, less than two years out of the
Navy and just getting started in his civilian career (and not earning
a big paycheck yet) got just under 10 bucks more a week in his
paycheck starting this month. His current income is in the very low
middle class range.

Unfortunately, that 10 bucks is going to more than absorbed by the
several tax increases being implimented by the state, so he's no
better off.

Is that a tax cut or a reduction in withholding? There has been no law
passed for the former but an order has been given to the IRS to reduce
the latter. All it is,s an illusion. If the tax cut legislation
doesn't pass there will be an even bigger tea party April 15th 2010.


Reduction is withholding *is* the "tax cut".

I think I'll submit a W4 today and give my self an even bigger tax cut.

You're both talking out of your asses. It's a tax cut and the
withholding is reflective of the lower tax rate.

Bush is the one who gave people their own money in advance.

I didn't hear you bitching back then.
