All this talk by Obama and Company about a 250K threshold is Class envy warfare. It's so clear, so plain, so easy to see I don't know why anyone gives his plan any credence. He basically SAID IT when he told Joe the plumber why he wanted to raise his taxes. Now..,HERE is what I really wish McCain to say... "we want everyone to make more than 250K, we want 250K to be the commonplace standard, with no limit to the heights.., we want everyone to have a Bill Gates type of success story... and that can happen!! There's only one thing stopping you. There's a hand gripping your arm and pulling you down, turning you bodily away from those heights and telling you that the only people who reach those heights are people who don't deserve to be there and need to be punished... but if you manage to break away from Obama's grip and climb up to that great success story, Obama will be right behind you chasing you and your family and your children with a club in his hand called the tax code that he wants to bludgeon your entire family with! The Republicans want to stop Obama and take that club away from him and tell him he can't stop you. We want to take the obstacles out of your way and show you the stairway up." McCain needs to articulate the great opportunities that everyone has the possibility of reaching as long as theives like Obama are not permitted to stand in your way and tie an anchor to your leg and toss you into the ocean so that you stay at the bottom.
