The Bush tax cuts are set to expire at the end of this year. Another reason to vote in more Repubs in Congress and the W.H.

Probably getting back just over 1k.

Under $800. The double $400 credit (head of household) expired. One of Big O's "stimulus" schemes.

No thanks.  I paid enough all by my widdle lonesome.

The only reason I got anything back was because of the mortgage interest.  Unfortunately, until I have dependents, I am stuck giving Unca Obammy an interest-free loan every year.

No you are not.You can claim as many exemptions throughout the year as you wish. it's when you file your taxes you can only claim the proper number. I dunno if it's still the same but the rule of thumb used to be for each exemption claimed your take home increased by $50.

I love the word "scheme" when applied to a lib. They try to use it, undeservedly, to describe many conservative plans, to discredit them. But when used on a lib it is so much more appropriate, and delicious.

I would prefer someone else but it looks like we are stuck with him. He might surprise us all. He was caught on a hot mike saying he would abolish HUD and cut back on many agencies. That would be great for starters.

Sorry, but I just don't see Romney doing much to reduce the imprint of government. Most RINOs are perfectly okay with huge, bloated bureaucracies that justify not only their own existence, but those of the RINOs' too.

The thing here is this:  There's going to be more Tea Partiers in the Republican caucuses in both the House and Senate, in the next Congress.  There will be enough, and the din of the economic doom and gloom that will follow if spending isn't reined in will be played out in Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Italy, France, Germany--pretty much the entire EU.  There will be too many sources that will point to the fact that this will be the United States of America if we don't cut way back.  

Will this be listened to?  Probably.
