Nice massive SuperFail. Why don't you now link to Romney paying a 25% lower rate than Obama?idiot
Because he didn't make it a point in the current debate that "they" should pay more. I don't believe you fully comprehend what hypocrisy is and that you've never had a capacity to fully understand why somebody might see some on "your side" of things.
Really Superhack? You are clearly both intellegent and educated; how is it that your mind can come up with such a stupid idea?
Tell me SimpleFreak, why on earth would ANYONE pay more than they are required to? Especialy considering that NOTHING Obama has tried to do to raise taxes has been able to pass the house? The members of the GOP have signed a contract in which they pledge to not raise taxes under any circumstances (including to avoid a credit downgrade which will likely eventually lead to the dollar no longer being the reserve capitol of the world)?
Your suggestion is stupid and has NO MERIT. That is likely why more than one reader has made the connection to Fox News. No matter how much you jiggle and dance, it is YOU that has got a few drops in your pants.
One not paying more than legally required does not a hypocrite make. Nice desperation you have going there Damo.

As I stated, you are clearly not intelligent enough to grasp the concept of leadership. A leader by definition, leads. A leader does not make someone force him to do something.

When one states, 'I should be paying more' and is free to pay more, yet doesn't... it is.
Wrong. Opinion, not fact.
An intellegent man does not make hopeless gestures to impress those which will never be impressed. Your entire premise is without substance or merit.
It is the very essence of the GOP talking point war in which those who give said talking points no consideration whatsoever are impressed.
You sir are a hack extraordinaire.
To say that rich people should voluntarily pay extra in taxes is dumb. It will not work untill its compulsary, if he "led by example" he would have been setting a terrable example. The tax code must be fixed, otherwise those who "do the right thing" will be poorer and poorer while those who do not will grow richer and richer and more and more powerfull.

It's all a bunch of hooey. There's no way the extremist right wingers will vote for the Buffett rule. They'd bring this nation down around it's knees first. We have simply gotten into this predicament we are in due to accepting tax cuts for the wealthy that we simply could not afford. The next time the Bush tax cuts come up for renewal they will simply be allowed to die and this time it can be done with out impacting our economic recovery.
As a scholar of human nature, it is dispointing to me that you have chosen to take the low road in debates with me, attempting to demean my acuity rather than using facts of merit. I expect so much more from you. You have the tools, use them or refrain from such discussians that your only tools are personal attacks. Were you to offer corrections or apologies after your not infrequent assaults on my mental ability are proven incorrect, your behavior would not be so offensive.
That you continue to utilise the base tools of yurt and others of lesser ability than yourself indicates to me that at these times your efforts are more orientated to partisanship than the truth.

two thirds of those Bush tax cuts went to the lower and middle income families... not the rich. We have gotten into this predicament because the two parties continue to outspend revenue by insane margins no matter the economic conditions. The Buffett rule would bring in about $50B over ten years. The idiots in DC are outspending revenue by $1 trillion a year. Insane spending is the problem. Class warfare is the Dem 'answer' to that problem. I wonder why Obama doesn't highlight just how little the Buffett rule will bring in?

yet another liberal with no concept of what leadership means.
Cite where leadership means stupid personal sacrifice with no hope of affecting change.
So, the President shouldn't lead by example and pay what he believes "they" should pay because only the government can make that right?
You don't make any sense and sound desperate to cover hypocrisy for political gain. Nobody said it was illegal for him to do what he did, just a bit hypocritical and clearly not something he believes is right for rich people like him, only for "them" bad rich people.
LOL. Again, you seem desperate to cover hypocrisy for political gain. I'm good with that. However, he is currently preaching that "change" in the hopes of making dramatic points politically, there is "hope", and if he really believed it to be "right" then there should be no hesitation to lead the way personally, instead he makes it clear that even he doesn't believe that this is right, at least not for rich people like him, only for those "bad" ones.

Tell us, if there is no hope of his affecting change... why is he running around promoting the Buffett rule? A rule that will bring in a whopping $5b a year on average?
Are you saying that Obama is indeed just doing it to create class warfare?
Let's put this in perspective. Is Paul Ryan in a position of leadership? Why are you not questioning his complete and utter failings of leadership?
When Bush was president, did you contrive things he should have done or said?
Why did you not respond to my comment about the contract most members of the GOP have signed, ensuring that any such action by Obama would be pointless?
I assume that the president feels as if the makeup of Congress may be different after November.
