Ron Paul. That's interesting.
I don't believe there is a single tax cut that he has ever voted against, without exception.
This is such a hollow stupid appeasement vote~ They could have had this same vote BEFORE the election and passed it in both the House and the Senate, but didn't do so because they'd have had an even bigger piece of their democratic asses handed to them last month!
WTF do you think you are trying to say? People already HAVE the tax cuts! Dems didn't vote to raise taxes "on the rich" (note this includes 50% of small business's) because they KNEW they'd be risking reelection. If not why mr. dork of dorks didn't they vote and PASS this prior to the election when they had the votes in the Senate as well as the house?

does anyone get confused as to how a nation created upon treating everyone equally and fairly would get so upset about different tax rates based on income and why we have them?
Because they're bigger dumbasses than you are and they don't have the votes in the Senate.

Why are you pinheads calling this a "tax cut?" It's an extension of the Bush-era tax cuts, which you all unanimously proclaimed "tax breaks for the rich" when they were enacted. So, not only were you lying about the tax cuts then, you're lying again now, claiming you are cutting taxes! You people can't get through a day without telling a whopper, can ya?

What bullshit? Your House passed an EXTENSION of a tax cut that already existed! They did not CUT TAXES! They avoided RAISING taxes! What part of that are you having trouble comprehending, moron?
What's more, these are the same "tax cuts" that, when they were passed, you called them "tax breaks for the wealthy!" According to your spin back then, they didn't contain much of a tax cut for the middle class... so how is it the House renewed something you claimed never existed in the first place?
In this case he voted for a tax increase.....nothing changes for anyone except the high bracket will get higher....
NO ONE gets a cut....why lie to yourself.

Anybody that thinks a tax cut is involved is a dumbass....right dumbass?
I wonder if people polled were asked "Do you favor increasing taxes on 50% of small business"? What the outcome would be of these "808" people.
You who hates Rasmussen polls likes this one...LOL
From your link:
This poll was conducted among a random sample of 808 adults nationwide, interviewed by telephone November 29-December 1, 2010. Phone numbers were dialed from RDD samples of both standard land-lines and cell phones. The error due to sampling for results based on the entire sample could be plus or minus four percentage points. The error for subgroups is higher. This poll release conforms to the Standards of Disclosure of the National Council on Public Polls.
From a month prior:
A new AP-CNBC poll showed a majority of respondents (50%) agreeing that Washington should "allow the tax cuts for people earning more than $250,000 to expire, but continue them for other people," while 34% believe the tax cuts should continue for everyone. Fourteen percent suggested that Washington should allow the tax cuts to expire for everyone. These results differ greatly from the pollster's November 8 look at the question -- in that survey, the majority (53%) favored extending tax cuts for everyone, while 32% supported income eligibility limits.
(Newsroom America)
A new survey says most Americans want to extend tax cuts passed during the first Bush administration, sending a signal to the lame duck Congress they hope will act on them before the end of the year.
Rasmussen Reports said its survey found that 50 percent of likely U.S. voters think those cuts, which are set to expire Dec. 31, should be extended for all Americans, while a smaller portion - 44 percent - think they should be extended to everyone but the highest earners.
Republicans, who won a majority in the House and picked up six seats in the Senate, have said they favor extending the cuts for every income bracket, especially while the economy is still performing poorly.
President Obama and most Democrats, however, have said they favor extending the cuts to the middle class but allowing the current rates to expire for individuals who earn more than $200,000 annually and couples with a yearly income of more than $250,000.
Obama has signaled in recent weeks he may be willing to go along with all the extensions, but has said he doesn't want rates for top earners permanently lowered.
The survey of 1,000 Likely Voters was conducted on November 13-14. The margin of sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points with a 95 percent level of confidence.
They did not vote when they had the opportunity to pass what they wanted because they are chickenshit hacks holding their poloitical fingers in the wind. You can spin this all day long, but the facts and the signs are there for the the non-lemmings.

No one has a better voting record (in his time of office) than Paul. That is,,,, "for the tax payer".
Schadenfreude
patriot and widower
some people are more equal than others - the founders regarding blacks and females
while free blacks could vote, their votes counted less than whites
females could not vote at all
Schadenfreude
patriot and widower
extended for both the lower and middle classes
which would, if passed, raise taxes on the upper class by default

But they didn't cut middle class taxes, as the thread title implies, thank you.
