"in fact, Obama's plan provides a bigger tax cut for middle-class families than McCain's does."
"Maybe the applause has gone to his head," an announcer says in the ad. "Saying John McCain cost Ohio jobs, though it's just not true. It's Obama's taxes that will hurt Ohio families. Higher taxes on your paycheck, your life savings, your electric bills."

But as we've pointed out numerous times, that McCain counterattack is misleading. Only families that earn more than $250,000 per year will see their taxes increase under Obama's tax plan; in fact, Obama's plan provides a bigger tax cut for middle-class families than McCain's does.

1. the mccain ad running here states that Obama will
raise taxes for families making $42,000 and over. It also says that he plans to raise taxes on the elderly. Every time I hear it I feel like I am in the Twilight Zone.

2. God knows I don't like taxes but how and when are we going to
start paying that 10 trillion dollars national debt, the american government and the american people are like kids thinking you can spend, run up this huge debt and ignore it. If we the people don't want to pay taxes then we should stop voting for imperialist who want to maintain and expand the american empire.
