KAHUNA...while I respect someone AGAIN trying to get a discussion of issues, there are two things only that I can offer...

First, when it comes to economic issues, I must take a back seat because it is not an issue I can discuss with any authority or confidence.

Secondly, it is obvious that your intent was to tout Sen Obama with this post...you didnt disguise it very well This is not as simple as you make it in my opinion.....I have always felt that we should use our free enterprise system to stimulate the economy and not complicate the tax code any more than we already have. I will just add that you are not taking into consideration any of the many promises being made that will cost oodles of money.

Relative to government spending, there was some report today on earmark spending that on the surface was not favorable to Sen Obama at all, but will leave that to you experts to discuss !
