But paying only 4% more on 5 grand is what 200 bucks. Big difference in thinking you have to pay 4% on 105 grand, which a lot of stupid people think in this country. I don't know how many time I have to tell people that. I have seen people who knew what the tax brackets were not want pay raises because they thought they would make less money if their salary put them in a higher tax bracket.

I know you probably know this, but when you get bumped to a higher tax bracket, it doesn't tax your entire income at that tax bracket. Only the amount by which you go over. So for example let's say you make 97,000 a year and your tax bracket is 25%. If the health insurance is taxed and let's say it cost 8,000. Once you hit the magical 100,000 whoch maybe put's you in the 31% tax bracket, you don't pay 31% on 105,000. You only pay 31% on the 5,000 that you go over. The initial 100,000 is at 25%. Yeah I know I simplified it, but you have levels, and the income at those levels is taxed at that level. Any amount over is tax at the next level, but only the amount your over by, not your entire income.

Where's Archie Bunker when you need him?

Wrong. Springsteen backed Obumble back in April, and he backed Kerry in 2004 even wrote a song for him. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/...ss-backs-obama/

If by spin, you mean presenting facts, then yes.

About 8 minutes of TOP and about 70 yards of plays that didn't all come on 1 play. Thus sustaining drives and helping the defense out by keeping them off the field. That's the big difference.

Really we're seeing mid 3.20's in my neck of the woods of VA.

Mines all in Thulium.

Trent Edwards.

Well if Edwards is out for a while, I'm putting this bandwagon back in the garage until next season. Noone else is capable of driving the damn thing. Unless I want the wheels getting dropped off, and hit numerous times when the driver can't recognize a redlight, or giving the keys to someone else for a joy ride.

Kind of hard when the offense is out there for 1 maybe 2 plays and then turn it over inside your own redzone every series. Blame the defense, but the offense did nothing to help and in fact made a bad defense worse.

And take away 17 you get 24-17 and a chance to win with 8 minutes to go. But alas, 2 critical QB fumbles and a few bad sacks and we're now out of it. As bad as the defense was, JP and the Offense was just as responsible. Sustain a few drives, not fumble twice by the Qb and it's a game. But nope.

Is that before or after he pulls the race card?

<akc>We should have drafted a defensive lineman instead </akc>

Travis Henry you are a loser. Always have been, always will. It was one of my happiest days as a Bills fan when you left. You continue to show why you are a screwed up individual and a oxygen stealer. If you had half a brain you could have made tons of money, but your stupidity was evident from day one and you never seemed to overcome. Good luck being Bubba's B word. They like child rapists in jail.

No. The president only votes with his pen

The dem leadership brought it to the floor. Not the repub responsibility. The dems control congress. They were given the power by the people to forge spending bills. if they can't get something passed, maybe it's time for new leadership in the house.

They got 60%. That isn't even passing in school. If they are so good why couldn't they get more. 2/3rds would have given them 14 more votes and passage.

Not the democrats. the democrat leadership. There is a difference.

Maybe they should be less political like you and try to explain and sell it.

Yes. They need to show leadership.

Because of two reasons. One he is the democrat leader now. Two, because he has to show leadership on both sides of the aisle to bring about fruit. He can't do either. BTW since when is 141/235 = 66.67% My calculator has it at 60%. SO no the dems couldn't even get a passing grade from their own idiots. 60% is not 2/3 as you keep stating. 60% is not 2/3. Let me repeat again 141 out 235 dem votes is not 2/3rds.

It's his fault as the leader of the dems to lead and sway people. Not make it political. If he can't do that on one simple bill, how is he going to do that with the hundreds of bills every year as president?

The people of america are idiots. Again for your benefit. If most were killed and dumped in the ocean they wouldn't be missed. 7 years later and most folks don't even remember or care about the attack on the towers or the pentagon. Do you really think if 1/3 of the population was dumped in the ocean that 10 years from now anyone would remember or care?

Same goes for Obamas people. Actually with Palin they point to the gas pipelines.
