It's called POLITICS. Gullible people will vote for any clown who will cut taxes..... "It ain't botherin' me so lets cut em'"

Obama has told people this is nothing but a gimmick for votes. Who listens?

It's a shell con game. Give the people what they think they want. It's flawed in every way and will end up costing more guaranteed. Barak has been the only voice of reason and knows that fundamental changes are needed, not temporary bandaids. That is why he will get my vote. He hasn't even ducked sniper fire shooting hoops.

But wait!

Obama is a Muslim. M-U-S-L-I-M! Muslim!

And he didn't hold his hand over his heart!

Nor does he always wear a lapel pin!

These things are so much worse than hundreds of thousands of jobs being lost, and broken highways.

Yes, but Ron Paul is a whole different breed.

Whereas the remaining 3 candidates would all spend more money, Ron Paul's plans would save the country billions, so when he says that he can think of places in which we could recover the costs, he's right.

ROFL bigbert! Insane in a Salvadore Dali kind of way isn't it. No lapel pin, no hand over heart. The humanity! Oh, it is to laugh.

Let me tell you what will happen if the tax is repealed for a short time. They ( government ) will raise this tax when it goes back on to make up for the short fall.

Roper

Isn't it though, JPM...isn't it? j/k

Yeah, I think 'insane' actually covers that pretty well.

And Roper, I think you're absolutely right about that. Raise taxes even more to cover their losses. Good point.

We gave up our temporary security and liberties to bastardized munchcons long ago. Where do we go from here?

Huh, well I'm glad I don't live in Vegas anymore then.

This whole thing is such a fraud, and they're STILL pushing it.

If cops think that we're just cattle (which is shown by all of their recent newsworthy appearances), imagine what these people think about us when people eat this ludicrous idea up.

Scary.

Isn't that 'special'. Could it be...Satan? It just gets better and better.

Hmmm, I find it amazing that Obama being Muslim threads seem so much more important than a thread with significant substance like this one.

I guess a man's religion, Muslim or not, (despite what GWB has done for being a 'devout Christian'), is more important to people than the hundreds of thousands of jobs, and our economy taking a large step backwards.

This also goes for the bull about a lapel pin...

...or a hand over a heart...

...etc....

...etc...

I question the claim that "hundreds of thousands" of jobs will be lost because of the gas tax holiday, but nevertheless it's a bad idea. The only way the U.S. is going to be less dependent on foreign oil and contribute less to global warming is if the price of gasoline goes up so much that people stop driving their huge honking trucks and other gas guzzlers and replace them with fuel efficient cars. It will also hasten the development and acceptance of greener means of transportation. Obama has it right.
