Since I am undecided on who I am voting for at this point, I like to go and research these things that I "hear" on the old internet:
More on the Estate Tax

Bush didn't repeal it; Obama would expand it
False

A chain e-mail claims that Sen. Barack Obama intends to raise pretty much all your taxes, while Sen. John McCain will leave them alone. The problem is that most of the e-mail's detailed assertions are false.

Here, we'll look at the e-mail's claims about Barack Obama and the estate tax, which it refers to as the inheritance tax. For an examination of the e-mail's other claims, read our full article here.

The e-mail claims that President George W. Bush "repealed" the estate tax, and it now stands at 0 percent. Though Bush reduced the tax, he did not repeal it. Rather, under his 2001 tax cut package, the estate tax reduces every year and then goes away for just a single year — 2010 — before reverting back to higher rates. (See the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center on estate taxes for more details.)

Currently, the estate tax generally applies only to estates worth more than $2-million (or $4-million for couples). Above those amounts, the tax rate tops out at 45 percent. Both Obama and McCain support renewing the current estate tax with a few changes. McCain proposes to increase the exemption to $5-million ($10-million for couples) and reduce the tax rate to 15 percent. Obama proposes to increase the exemption to $3.5-million ($7-million for couples) and leave the top rate at 45 percent.

So the e-mail is wrong when it says McCain wants a "0 percent" estate tax and that Obama wants to "restore" it. We rule this statement False.

Oh and now someone has filed a lawsuit against him to prove he was a natural born citizen: http://web.israelinsider.com/Article...tics/13076.htm

Maybe they should just do a little research...

It's hard to understand why even Democrats would take up the mantra, "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help you." European socialism is dying even in Europe, but continues seemingly to gain traction here over the last decades with the rise and expansion of the victim classes and their self-interested protectors and enablers.

The turned-on and tuned-out "takes a village" generation coming to political power who swallowed the Marxian line of the day may just kill the rugged individualism and sense of self-reliance that is America's hallmark. One man's Utopia is a tax or regulation on another man. There are sadly fewer and fewer of us other men, but a tipping point will be reached; I hope in time.

If there was any real merit to that lawsuit, don't you think Hillary and her people would be all over that? Let's face it, she's still bitter about not getting the nomination and if there was ANY chance of her getting it and that had any merit at all, she would all about that lawsuit and serving papers and so on. Also, why is there no mainstream media on it?

I Also, why is there no mainstream media on it?

They're too busy gushing and hyperventilating like teenager girls at a Beatles concert.

What happened to the Jimmy Breslins who Questioned Authority before it now became inconvenient for the media to do so.

I don't know guys, we have a nice community with people who have something in common. Threads like this don't bring people together and frankly this forum should be about Tige's and boating, not politics. There are plenty of other political forums where you can bash any political figure want. Just my 2 cents.
