The real problem with this undisputable fact is that producers see taxes as the way to provide the goverment with funds for providing necessary services while liberals see taxes as punishment for being successful.

Does it really matter? According to our dear leader, there is a limit to how much we can make. With obama, it is not about taxes, but control.

obama made $5 million when the job only pays $400,000. Why doesn't he listen to his own advice?

It is not about how much he or his friends make, it is about how much we make. Since he knows what is best for everyone.

Exactly my point, "Do as I say, not as I do" the socialist mantra.

Not picking on you, Dugout Dad. If we think about it, and this is my personal opinion, I don't hire/elect anyone EVER to be my leader. I hire/elect these people to serve. These people are not or rarely are leaders.

There was a recent local election in my city where a candidate expounded what a leader she would be. She was there at the polling station and pronounced that she was the better candidate because she was the best leader. I told her I vote for those who want to serve the people and not those who want to be elected to lead/rule and treat the people as ignorant subjects. She was dumbfounded as I told her that's what’s wrong with today’s elected officials - they have conveniently forgotten that the people rule the US and the elected are there to serve.

I heard so many times from liberals during the presidential primaries - how the President will rule over the USA. I think this explains a lot.

I'll use one word to explain my use of the phrase "our dear leader" = sarcasm. The Chinese Communist refer to the their president as "our dear leader" hence the use of the term.

As a matter of fact, I did have a beer this afternoon, and it tasted damn good, thanks for asking. If obama's statement was taken out of context, in your own words, tell us what he exactly meant? Enlighten all of us, please.
