- corteb88, on 08/19/2008, -2/+8"At what point, give me a number, give me a specific number, where do you move from middle class to rich?" - Pastor Rick Warren
"So, I think, if you're just talking about income, how 'bout $5 million? (Laughter) So, no, but, but seriously, I don't think you can, i don't think, seriously, that, the point is that I'm trying to make here, seriously... and I'm sure that comment will be distorted." - John McCain
I don't know about you, but it seemed like he played his answer off as a joke once he saw the reaction his answer got. Warren wanted a number, McCain gave it to him... LAUGHTER!!!! "Ha ha... yea... I was joking, of course I was." Oh McCain... you trixie, trixie bell. - Qrange, on 08/18/2008, -1/+5Eloquent speech he gave. Is the full quote better for McCain?
Partial Quote: He's a rich jackass who doens't understand the middle class
Full Quote: He's a bad public speaker who can't organize his impromptu thoughts, who doesn't understand economics, and a rich jackass who doesn't understand the middle class.
Decreasing Taxes + Continuing war in Iraq != increased revenue.
Thats a fine example ignorant economic policy. - inactive, on 08/19/2008, -2/+5Exactly the reason this guy still uses the "Obama want to raise your taxes" gag. He thinks we're all doing fine and dandy and that the fact that Obama wants to raise taxes on people making over $250,000 (1%) ***** us all. Must be nice ya loon.

- inactive, on 08/19/2008, -1/+3At the very first penny he "earns" through exploitation, deception, or crime.
- EatingPie, on 08/19/2008, -0/+1McCain said this would be misrepresented, and that's exactly what ThinkProgress is doing. In their article, they cut (or just ignore?) the whole point he wanted to make.
He said the RIGHT approach, instead of raising taxes for anyone (hence the number he chose not mattering), is to *cut spending*. He justified this very well.
Obama said something similar. He wants us out of Iraq because it's costing too much... getting out of Iraq will *cut spending.*

Ron Paul 2008 - cowleyad, on 08/19/2008, -0/+1You should read the entire interview, genius. Obama's answer was pathetic... McCain went on to say he didn't want to take ANYONE'S money.
- jakereilly, on 08/19/2008, -1/+0So, cutting spending is throwing billions of dollars into Iraq every year?
That is McCain's idea of cutting spending? McCain's will cut spending like Bush cut spending. /sarcasm. - merlin484, on 08/19/2008, -1/+0It doesnt matter, he's not going to be president
- inactive, on 08/19/2008, -3/+2So....at what income level does the annointed one believe it is OK to hate your neighbor because of his success?
- inactive, on 08/18/2008, -9/+3So heres the full quote "How about $5 million? No, but seriously, I don’t think you can, I don’t think seriously that the point is I’m trying to make, seriously, and I’m sure that comment will be distorted but the point is…that we want to keep people’s taxes low, and increase revenues. … So, it doesn’t matter really what my definition of rich is"
So maybe they want to clip the "No, but seriously, because Mccain was joking at that number. Same old democrats as usual!
The only real thing democrats can get him on this, is avoiding the answer but lies and things out of context are what libtards want most.
