Official Vice Presidential Debate thread!

Biden saying the republicans are holding hostage the middle class tax cut for the wealthy people tax cut.

High income is considered 200K a year for indv. or 250K a year for families.

Sorry Joe, but that isn't THAT much money anymore. give it 15-25 years and that will be middle class money. fuck that.

Ryan is definitely in touch with the taxes. 2/3s of our jobs come from small business.

53% will see increases in their taxes costing over 700K jobs.

they don't want to increase the deficit.

A conservative talking up socialist programs and wealth redistribution yeah I should vote for Romney/Ryan

[Rust_shackleford]

Ryan sided with Bush to privatize SS for younger people.

Honestly, I'm 27. I'd rather keep my own money, take care of thing myself.

But you'll starve to death in your old age

1.2 trillion raised in income taxes.

basically 20% tax reduction is what Romney/Ryan want to accomplish.

[SuperiorDG]

Joe needs to stop interrupting. WTF

[sniper7]

But you'll starve to death in your old age

I doubt it. I don't need the .gov to hand me a check. I'd rather try to make it myself and keep all my own money then let the .gov steal it from my paycheck to "MAYBE" see it in 50 years.

[WETWRKS]

The VB acts like he feels threatened by all this.

He's talking about reforming them. What's the alternative?

Sorry it took so long to check in- but as a former intelligence professional, I want to say a big FUCK YOU to VP Biden for throwing my intelligence community brothers and sisters under the bus by blaming them for a "failure" your goddamn administration caused! BTDTGTTS- it's learned in DAY ZERO: You must be very careful what you present to higher; say the wrong thing, report something prematurely, or give the wrong info and you spin up folks in the wrong direction- ensure you report the accurate information to those above you. If it took 24 hours to figure out it was a terrorist attack (and then that was decided as the final word)- so for those 24 hours, I know the intel folks who report to the WH put their index finger up and said "Give us a little more time, we don't have a definite answer for you at this time."
