Anyone snag it? I FBed it, but didn't think to 'grabit!'! If Reuters is pulling it, then I feel a desperate urge to forward the article to EVERYONE I know!

Yes, can't let the Middle Class know the are the targets, only the 'rich' are suppose to be taxed.

You do know that Obama has cut taxes?

One of the best kept secrets in history.

It will be interesting to see some real numbers. Are we talking hundreds of dollars, less, more?

the obama admin’s journalist thought-purity patrol is on duty!

My God, they are far more efficient than Homeland Security!

Right now, somehere, a known al Qaeda operative is boarding an American aircraft. But there is not a single journalist able to publish an article exposing obama’s middle class tax increases.

I remember reading this the morning on Yahoo and thinking to myself. Oh, f____. How did this get by the editors at Rooters and Yahoo... and the WH?

I think the RNC already has this up on their website as an ad.

_____________________________________________

The numbers were in in the article. Among them, the $1,000 deduction for property tax if you DON’T itemize is going. Also, the first 2,500 of unemployment benefits will now be taxed. Etc. Big money on both of those hitting the working and formerly working middle class.

ozero’s media reported on this today in the ap.

“Some of obama’s other tax proposals would.....
Impose a total of about $39 Billion in tax increases on oil, gas and coal companies over the next decade.”

Not only are the middle class going to get hammered, but baraq will be taxing the crap out of the shlubs that voted for him.
