like you are not an idiot—I hope you speak Chinese—maybe you can ask Hillary where she hid the billing files when they give you your bowl of gruel

I can do the explaining in case Obama or Biden don’t follow your blog: the payroll tax is 6.2% tax we pay into Social Security, on the earned income up to about 100k (the exact amount changes every year). Last year, or two years ago, don’t remember exactly, the tax rate was brought down temporarily to 4.2% as a stimulus measure. It was scheduled to expire 1/1/13, and it did. So we are now simply back to the decades-old arrangement, after the government gave us an extra tax break in 2012 and 2011. And we can’t keep paying 4.2% for Social Security instead of 6.2% from now on, and expect it to pay us the same amount of benefits at retirement.

What? Come on…unfunnny? Rain Man jokes were so funny back in the late 80s…Everbody had a rain main impression, everybody tried to imitate Tom Cruise’s grin and 5’1″ stature…what makes them unfunny now. Oh right, everything about them. Nevermind.

Boehner has leverage – next round of debt ceiling negotiations is just around the corner.

I hope you’re right. Unfortunately, the House majority gives Boehner and co. plenty of leverage – Obama’s got a real fight on his hands. Here’s hoping for that giant can of whup-ass…

Someone has got to be paying him a lot of money to say this stuff. I never watch Fox so I do not really follow what he says, but Media Matters today came up with a great compilation of failed predictions and videos. It certainly made my night. He is either the dumbest or most deranged person on television(or at least cable news).

Obama’s Ohio firewall looks pretty solid. And if there’s one thing we know about Romney it’s that he’s an asshole. Nobody not on his payroll or in his family can stomach him. Can he go 17 days running on his persona alone? He’ll have to, because his Bush-on-steroids agenda is as popular as head lice.

Humanoid tissue instinctively rejects Mitt Romney.

Rick, it would be more hilarious if it weren’t what is appearing to be a close election. I am very concerned that Romney may win and we will go back to the old days of Republican policies without regard to the future of the planet and our heirs.
