First it was $250k, and I have seen commercials for $200k starting last week. Now, I had Fox News on this morning since McCain was giving a speech while I was flipping channels. He said that a couple of days ago Biden said $150k and just yesterday Bill Wichardson said $125k. So, what is the number for getting tax cuts now?

breaking news for all the rich family's who make a combined of 45K a year will be taxed 40% and given to the poor. Duh not that hard to figure out ;)

it hasn't changed. 250 is for married couples with kids. Number is different if you are single, married no kids.

Thanks for the info Brett

TJ, it was McCain speeking and FNC was the only one playing his speech. FNC is not nearly as biased as people say and defintiely not as bad as MSNBC is towards liberals.

FoxNews I think is the worst, the way they said McCain definitely won the debates was laughable.

Winning debates is all just spin anyways.

Here is Oweim's guides to understanding policiticians, pundits, and politcal advertising. Its' 99% bunk designed to inflame, enrage, pick your adjective. Ask not what they are saying, ask what they aren't.

LOL, I love you Brad but McCain and Palin are very bad about taking things out of context and making assumptions out of it, and no politician is completely innocent of this behavior. Obama's plan has not changed. I don't know what Richardson was talking about. But Biden basically used $150K as an example of someone who would get a bigger tax break under Obama.

Fox News is bad. They, Rush Limbaugh, O'Reilly, and a bunch of others (probably MSNBC too but I dont get that channel) are purposely inciting the anger that is dividing this country into red and blue states.
