I don't mind at all! This topic needed a poll!
Well, I'm not surprised that some of you are going to vote Obama. Most young voters vote for Democrats and liberals anyway.
@Woeler1 We still need a strong military. Obama and the military may have killed al-Qaeda's top leaders, but that still doesn't mean we should let our guard down. Terrorists still want to create another 9/11-like attack on our homeland.
[quote="Azdgari"]Taxing the rich less and taxing me more doesn't sound too fair, thanks very much.[/quote]
No, the rich still pay more taxes than the middle class and poor combined. The facts below speak for themselves.
[quote="An
article of
USA Today""]On average, the wealthiest people in America pay a lot more taxes than the middle class or the poor, according to private and government data. They pay at a higher rate, and as a group, they contribute a much larger share of the overall taxes collected by the federal government.
The 10% of households with the highest incomes pay more than half of all federal taxes. They pay more than 70% of federal income taxes, according to the Congressional Budget Office.[/quote]
[quote="Azdgari"]Also, Mitt doesn't support gay marriage, and I see two possibilities for that: 1) he is a bigot (unlikely) OR 2) he is a coward who refuses to stand for what's right because it alienates him from his party and voters.[/quote]
According to
The Huffington Post, North Carolina became the 30th state to ban gay marriage. Even liberal California banned gay marriage until some activist judge overturned it. Think about it...30 out of 50 states (which amounts to 60%) don't think gay marriage is right. You might as well call those people in those states bigots too.
Same-sex marriage is not right, and opposing it doesn't mean we are are bigoted. It just means we have morals.
