McCain’s Doublespeak. I won’t raise taxes and I will raise taxes.
John McCain says (paraphrased) that raising taxes during this troubling economic times would be the most dangerous course of action but then outlines his medical benefits in order to pay for his new medical plan. How does he continue to say this with a straight face? How can he continue to say that Barack Obama raising taxes on the richest 5% of Americans when only 2% of small businesses fall into this bracket. If you think that people making $250,000 are considered the middle-class, then you and your 8 houses are extremely out of touch with the American people.
Question for McCain; How will we pay for our military? How will we pay for our Education? How will we pay for our Medical system?
Here is the deal. Most Americans don’t make even close to $250,000. If Joe the Plumber actually was a plumber and actually was in a position to buy his company, then he does not represent the majority of Americans that are losing their house and filing for bankruptcy because they can not afford their medical bills. This makes Joe the plumber’s challenges irrelevant to the majority of Americans and the fact that you have used him as your mascot for the Everyman American shows you are not concerned with the majority of Americans but rather those who are better off.
