Dear Leader to tax health benefits......
In what is quickly becoming the most cynical presidency in decades the Obama administration has signaled that it is changing its position on taxing employee health benefits, a campaign position that Obama used to hammer Senator John McCain in the 2008 election.
The Obama administration is signaling to Congress that the president could support taxing some employee health benefits, as several influential lawmakers and economists favor, to help pay for an overhaul of the health care system. The proposal is politically problematic for President Obama, however, since it is similar to one he denounced in the presidential campaign as "the largest middle-class tax increase in history." Most Americans with insurance get it from their employers, and taxing workers for the benefit is opposed by union leaders and some businesses. (Note: Only The New York Times would call this prevarication "problematic") Roscoe |

I saw a list of his supporters who are unhappy with him yesterday and Warren Buffet was among them. They said Obama isn't doing anything he said he would and is more worried about his next term than fixing the economy. He is losing support among his worshipers at a fast pace. Ron |
"He is losing support among his worshipers at a fast pace."
yup And now what can be done about it ? Can a president be outed before their term is up, or does he say "yeah - so what" ? |
Doug,
If he gets enough of his staunch supporters mad at him he can be outed before his term is up. Also he could be put in a position like Nixon that would almost force him to resign. Doubtful, but there is always a chance as he seems to be losing support at a record pace. His 100 day honeymoon was over in 4 days. Ron |
I hope he keeps it it!, the faster he goes, the sooner he'll be gone...........
