In Response to Re: Election 2012 Debate Season : 1st, Romneys medicare plan will double our cost. 2nd, so far nobody can get his tax plan to work without a tax increase on.... guess who.... the working class. Romney Plans 15 Navy Ships Built Yearly in First Term, Aide Says http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-10-11/romney-plans-15-navy-ships-built-yearly-in-first-term-aide-says.html Who in the hell is paying 53.3 billion for new ships? And why the hell do we need 15 new ships to fight land locked middle east countries? Why the hell do we need to fight anyone? This is the Conservative Party? Is this guys name Romney or Hitler? What the hell is up with the "no, we are not leaving Afghanistan", and now a severe military build up? I'll bet anyone... anyone, Mitt has investments in the companies building these ships. The military isn't asking for these ships. Why is Mitt spending all this money, and guess where it's coming from.... working man. The Ryan plan means MAJOR changes to Medicare.  It would eliminate the Medicare guarantee and turn it into a voucher program.  Studies have shown the Ryan plan would cost anyone under 55 years of age an additional $6,000 a year with a slow increase to $12,000 extra out of pocket in later years, and it moves eligibility for seniors to get Medicare from 65 to 67. Of course, he hasn't got a plan to get 20 million people back to work, to rob them of the $6000. ".....because the Ryan plan will literally lead to people dying" http://tinyurl.com/95egjd9 There is the Romney/Ryan logic.... increase the cost, delay giving the benefits. That way, some will die before the government has to give you back any of YOUR money you already paid to Medicare. Along with the Republicrats plan to move the retirement age to 69, so many will die before ever getting any of the SSI money YOU paid in. But that's OK. Because while adding additional cost to health care, and working people till they die on the job, you get to pay the taxes for the rich, once Romney lets them off the hook. You can forget government "creating jobs". A stong economy creats jobs. Fact is, wall street does better under Democrats, than republicans. Mitt Romney leads a party packed with paranoids and fabulists. http://tinyurl.com/9ghfoaq Stock Market Has Performed Much Better Under Democrats Than Republicans Since 1929 http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/10/15/democratic-presidents-stock-market_n_1967522.html It basically boils down a campaign slogan that says: “Mitt Romney: He sucks a little less than the other guy.” ( But not much less )

April 2010 – Christian leader Franklin Graham is disinvited from the Pentagon’s National Day of Prayer Event because of complaints from the Muslim community. April 2010 – The Obama administration requires rewriting of government documents and a change in administration vocabulary to remove terms that are deemed offensive to Muslims, including jihad, jihadists, terrorists, radical Islamic, etc. August 2010 – Obama speaks with great praise of Islam and condescendingly of Christianity. August 2010 – Obama went to great lengths to speak out on multiple occasions on behalf of building an Islamic mosque at Ground Zero, while at the same time he was silent about a Christian church being denied permission to rebuild at that location. 2010 – While every White House traditionally issues hundreds of official proclamations and statements on numerous occasions, this White House avoids traditional Biblical holidays and events but regularly recognizes major Muslim holidays, as evidenced by its 2010 statements on Ramadan, Eid-ul-Fitr, Hajj, and Eid-ul-Adha. October 2011 – Obama’s Muslim advisers block Middle Eastern Christians’ access to the White House. February 2012 – The Obama administration makes effulgent apologies for Korans being burned by the U. S. military, 51 but when Bibles were burned by the military, numerous reasons were offered why it was the right thing to do. Acts of hostility toward people of Biblical faith: April 2008 – Obama speaks disrespectfully of Christians, saying they “cling to guns or religion” and have an “antipathy to people who aren’t like them.” February 2009 – Obama announces plans to revoke conscience protection for health workers who refuse to participate in medical activities that go against their beliefs, and fully implements the plan in February 2011.

January 2011 – After a federal law was passed to transfer a WWI Memorial in the Mojave Desert to private ownership, the U. S. Supreme Court ruled that the cross in the memorial could continue to stand, but the Obama administration refused to allow the land to be transferred as required by law, and refused to allow the cross to be re-erected as ordered by the Court. February 2011 – Although he filled posts in the State Department, for more than two years Obama did not fill the post of religious freedom ambassador, an official that works against religious persecution across the world; he filled it only after heavy pressure from the public and from Congress. April 2011 – For the first time in American history, Obama urges passage of a non-discrimination law that does not contain hiring protections for religious groups, forcing religious organizations to hire according to federal mandates without regard to the dictates of their own faith, thus eliminating conscience protection in hiring. August 2011 – The Obama administration releases its new health care rules that override religious conscience protections for medical workers in the areas of abortion and contraception

So my husband & I are part of the 47% according to Romney?? We are 77 & 67, my husband pay Federal taxes on his pension, we both pay Federal taxes on our Social Security, I still work part-time, commissioned, so I pay Federal taxes on my income, a small commercial building rental gives us income that we pay Federal taxes on.  Is this the free ride we're taking after a long life of work? How does he figure it?
