John Boehner ... pushes the lie on the Tax Cuts...
http://www.timesunion.com/
Dec 5th...

Boehner feels that since they picked up seats, the public must want what they want...but He can't seem to really read the polls...

According to a new CBS poll, 53 percent of Americans want the Bush-era tax cuts extended only for households earning less than $250,000 per year.

Extended ONLY for households earning less than $250,000
Extended ONLY for households earning less than $250,000


Boehner is doing the same thing as they did with the Public Option...Truth is most people did not want the Health reform UNLESS IT HAD THE PUBLIC OPTION...

But the Republican drop that part of the statement to make it...American's didn't want the Health Reform...

Totally ignoring that they insisted it be removed and ignoring what the majority wanted!!!!

Now we have this again with the Bush Tax Cuts...and again, the most important part drops off to change the entire meaning. Extended only for Households earning less the $250,000...what the majority wants.

Study #10073a--page 1
October 2010 CNBC Survey

In this survey, 37% of the PEOPLE stated....which was the highest percent on the list pretty good reasons why a Republican would want to keep them....

"there is no good reason to keep the tax cuts..."

1. Poll after poll states tax cuts only if you make less than $250!!!
Again we are being bomboozeled by the Right Wing...

Suck it up? Unless this is not a democracy, they are the ones who should be sucking it up...

Revolutions start with crap like this and the same thing was done with the Health Reform and the public option...they lied to push their own agenda and not what the majority wanted...
=================

Bloomberg National Poll conducted by Selzer & Company. Dec. 4-7, 2010.
Poll states...


"I'm going to mention some of the ideas for reducing the
deficit. For each, please tell me if this is something you favor or oppose. Eliminate tax cuts the wealthiest Americans have received
in recent years."

Favor for cuts to the wealthiest...59%
Opposed....38%
unsure.....8%

http://politicalticker.bl...t-extension-for-wealthy/

According to a CBS News survey released Thursday evening, 53 percent of the public says that the cuts should be extended ONLY ONLY ONLY for families making a combined income of less that $250,000 a year, with 26 percent saying the lower tax rates should be continued for all Americans, and 14 percent saying they should be allowed to expire at the end of the year.
---------------

The only 26 percent in the CBS News poll who say that the cuts should be extended for all Americans is lower than the figures in other recent surveys.
---------------------
ONLY ONLY ONLY....Four in ten questioned in a USA Today/Gallup survey released Wednesday say that the cuts should be extended for all Americans, *SO THAT MEANS 6 IN TEN DO NOT WANT IT TO ALL AMERICANS....)with 44 percent saying they support extending the tax breaks but setting limits on how much of wealthy Americans' income is eligible for the lower rates, and 13 percent saying the cuts should be allowed to expire at the end of the year.
-----------------
An Associated Press-CNBC poll released Tuesday indicates that half of those questioned wanted tax cuts to be extended ONLY FOR ONLY FOR ONLY FOR..... for families making under $250,000 a year, with 34 percent saying they should be extended for all Americans, and 14 percent calling for the cuts to sunset for everyone at the end of the year.
--------
Forty-nine percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey conducted in the middle of November said the tax cuts should be extended for families making less than $250,000 a year, with another 15 percent saying the cuts should not be extended for anyone. ......That left ONLY ONLY ONLY ...ONLY ....ONLY 35 percent who favor an extension of the tax cuts for all Americans regardless of how much money they make.

-------------------

AGAIN...LIES AND THE STRONG ARMS GET WHAT THEY WANT...NOT WHAT THE COUNTRY WANTS...

DOES THAT SOUND LIKE FASCISM TO YOU?
