For All You Republican Die-Hards Who Think Democrats Are ONLY About Raising EVERYONE'S TAXES...

Click for article about last night's debate, which I missed because I had to get the rest of our house ready for Pesach AND sign loan documents for our house purchase...

Pertinent quote:

The two candidates also agreed they would not raise taxes on Americans making less than $200,000 a year.
Note: NOT raise taxes on middle class and working class Americans. NOT.

Obama also took a VERY staunch stand on Israel's defense, stating very clearly he would have the US defend Israel in case of attack by Iran. Hillary was a bit more wishy-washy about it...

Obama was asked by Charles Gibson about his plans to raise Capital Gains Tax to 28% (it was reduced under Clinton, I believe, to 15%) even though whenever the tax is raised the government collects less and millions are hurt.

We are middle class. We don't have an adjusted AGI in the six figure range. But if Capital Gains Rate is increased, our taxes will be increased.
