Jack Kemp is right. Obama's tax plan is garbage. It has been documented that the bush tax cut has actually caused MORE revenue to come to the federal gvt. Raising taxes DOES NOT facilitate anything but denying wealth to working famiies. MANY WORKING BLACK PROFESSIONALS who aint millionairs invest in the market and would get killed by doubling capital gains tax. Obamas economic plan SUCKS on taxes..

It seems as if Joe Scarborough deliberately tries to embarrass Mika on Morning Joe! He's so f-ing rude! Always interrupting someone until Rachel Maddow handed him his ass! Good for Rachel!

MSNBC should rename the show "Race Bait to the Whitehouse" Why is Scar on that show anyway. He has his own show. He and Pat Buchannan are birds of a feather.

They were talking about this "brush your shoulders off" thing this morning on Morning Joe.

Funny!!

"OMG Barack Obama listens to rap music...ahh..noo...stop Barack Hussein Obama!!"

I could hear the screams now.

ronnie b,

Good to hear. I know Klein's a shill but I do agree with him about the war and taxes being 2 key issues this Nov.

I would like to hear comments that reflect Obama's pragmtism, maybe I have to wait until he knocks Hillary out, because I am hearing nothing but left wing red-meat. If I'm missing something...let me know.

S~

While Joe Klein is a shill for anybody-but-Obama, it's guy like Jack Kemp who will ultimately catch President Obama's ear. As conservative Republicans go, Kemp has some "street cred" with Black policy makers and economists.

I say this because Barack -- Democrat that he is -- isn't as far left as some suggest. He's got a real pragmatism about him, and would listen very carefully to someone like Kemp.

And in the meantime Obama's being disassembled by critics on...issues that matter to the American people.

On the war:

Joe Klein, Time Magazine

'The real heat of the campaign will be on the issues — war and taxes — where there is a real difference between McCain and the Democrats. McCain will have an advantage in the war debate: both Democrats favor a rapid-withdrawal timetable for Iraq — one to two brigades per month — that is probably untenable.'

On Taxes:

Blogger, Ed Morrissey:

'Obama’s blindness on capital gains reveals a hard-Left mindset. He sees investors always profiting and never losing, while the people who work at jobs created by successful investment as victims of this exchange rather than the beneficiaries of it. Obama wants to use the heavy hand of government to take away the rewards of risk from those who invested, and instead redistribute it to those who took no risk to create economic growth. In doing so, he will kill the engine that drives the American economy.

Obama either fails to understand how a free-market economy grows, or simply doesn’t care. Either way, it makes him a dangerous choice for the Presidency.'

On Economic Empowerment for

Minorities:

Jack Kemp, Wall Street Journal

'Senator, I believe our tax code punishes this process of upward mobility, especially for people of color, and in some cases it actually prevents people from escaping poverty. In this respect, I believe your economic views are short-sighted. You've pledged to raise income tax rates to 39.5% and lift the cap on payroll taxes, which would end up raising the top rate on income to 52% or more. You also want to raise dividend taxes to 39.5% and capital gains to 28%, plus you want to return to a confiscatory 55% "death tax." Unwittingly, your plans would prohibit most black Americans, indeed most Americans, from ever getting rich or even richer. Your economic ideas, sincere as they are, would weaken the economy, weaken the dollar, and weaken our chances of reducing poverty and unemployment.

It's my strongly held belief that we should be working to democratize our free-enterprise, private property-based system. We can do this by expanding empowerment zones and offering zero capital gains taxes for those who invest there; by reforming the tax code to open access to capital; and by providing more school choice in urban America.'

Rachel Maddow's sex life has nothing to do with her being a highly educated rhodes scholar! She mopped Joe Scarborough's ass & I was loving the hell out of it! That'll teach his sorry mofo-ing ass to STFU!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

Well.....She's a brilliant ass "rug muncher"!!!

I don't know about her ruining the traditional AA family - I don't remember what it looks like.

You better check with Mr. Cosby on that.

Rachel Maddow is a rug muncher and I'm not down with the lesbian poliitcal agenda to destroy men and the traditional family. Political lesbians are toxic to the healthy development of society through the effort to neutralize traditional positive and masculine male roles in exchange for effiminated psuedo men.

Oh hahahahaha!!! that is so funny! I'm wiping tears from my eyes, my sides are hurting and you are just . . .

wait. what the fuck? you're not joking? then you are a jackass.

as to my candidate, Barack Obama, i have listened to this clip about eight times because he is magnificent.

and as for the highly educated rhodes scholar rachel maddow, she would be a superb in any position at all. she is brilliant, astute, funny as hell, and gorgeous to boot.

Political lesbians are toxic to the healthy development of society through the effort to neutralize traditional positive and masculine male roles in exchange for effiminated psuedo men.

The incarceration of men for failure to pay child support was started by alleged lesbian Janet Reno in Florida and made a national plan when she became attorney general.

Go to any university library and look up the history of political lesbianism and see if I'm wrong.

Lesbians are part of a sexually deviant counter that seeks to destroy and alter the traditional family. These are not the true values of the traditional african american community.

Thanks for the link. I didn't even notice when I was watching that he walked.

Good, he should stay gone. He lends nothing to thought provoking analysis.

He jealous of Obama.

I think the Democratic party is suffering from post traumatic stress. Losing has stripped them of their confidence and boldness. They no longer have the "killer" instinct. The Republicans really did a number on them. Even now, in the best year, they are timid.

TruthSeeker:

I agree - she really is.

Why was Harold Ford the DEMOCRAT laughing along with the boys when Jo responded that McCain wasn't being pressed about relationships because it's not the general yet.

Stupid, you're a Democrat you should be the one pressing McCain - which team are you on?

Re Rachel Maddow...

Every time I watch her I think: Press Secretary!

She's one of the sharpest people on TV.

Evita

She is the one of a few journalist who truly speaks to the truth about a situation. She doesn't play the media game - make a story out of a non-story or shape a story to your liking.

If not for Roland Martin, Eugene Robinson and Rachel Maddow, I couldn't even watch the news during this election cycle. Sorry if I left anybody off, but these are the three I like.

Ms Martin-

I saw Rachel Maddow serve up Scarborogh (sp?.) She is one of the few white pundits who have a clue about issues pertaining to race and gender. Notice in the very last segment after she asserted herself- he left. No Joe after that!
