1. They didn't ask this time about letting tax cuts for the wealthy expire.

Gallup was honest in mentioning that omission, but this detail is lost on those who just read the headline. Other headlines and other polls tell a different story:

No idea what this person is talking about because I see no breakdown at all asking if they more favor continuing it for those making under $250,000.

the general public doesn't care if the other guy pays 36% or 39% in income tax, they just care about their own tax rate and if it is going up. people who immerse themselves in places like this or watching msnbc or listening to liberal talk radio are hearing an echo from an ideological choir. polling will give congress cover to support this deal.

That pretty well describes the DUmp...they just want some sort of twisted satisfaction in seeing everyone that has more then they do punished for it.

As distinction between conservatives and liberals that this primitive accidently ran into is the above statement.

We don't care how much other people make, and we want everyone to pay as little in taxes as they can.  They are constantly concerned with the income of others and want to soak them if, in their view, they make too much.

You have to be extremely immature and insecure to go around concerned about how much money someone else makes.

Because third world peasant labor is a good thing.

Gotta love getting the DUmmies in a tizzy over the tax "extensions". Not tax cuts DUmmies, tax "extensions".
No one is getting a tax cut. Taxes either go up or they stay at the same level. I know that may be too much info for you to retain.

You know what DUmmies, if they start taxing the rich at 90% tomorrow it won't improve my life one bit.
In fact if we tax the rich like that, a lot of us will be helping to create jobs by collecting unemployment checks.
But, hey as long as the evil rich get soaked you don't mind the country falling apart.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Freeper, they do not understand. They are just hellbent on "punishing" the rich for working hard and having all that money. :mental:
They have no concept or care what happens to the economy, as long as they make the rich "pay".
