Hi guys,

This morning in his radio address, Obama lauded his "tax cut" to 95% of Americans who are working.

What a sham!! It is not a cut in 'tax rates'.

Employers are told to reduce an individual's withholding by $7.70 a week, but they are
still liable for that tax.

How many people will be shocked when they do their taxes next year to find out they owe
that $400 right back to Uncle Sam?

The only ones that will get caught, are the fools that believe Obama, and the rest of the liberal Dems.

By cutting the withholding, when tax-time 2009 rolls around in first quarter 2010, just how many people will be pulling their hair out because not enough tax was withheld during the year and now they have to pay it back in PLUS the penalties for not withholding enough?

and....
also when 2010 rolls around they may be shocked when the hope and change will mean more taxes withheld as
the Bush tax cuts Expire

How's the one gonna sell that?
Nope it's not a tax increase, just a cancellation of a tax decrease. Let's see if he does it to all income levels...

I am not sure if in fact this is a tax cut. I have read it is a tax credit of either $400 or $800. I have looked for details explaining, but am unable to find any. If it is just a reduction in withholding taxes this is a huge scam, and it wille be exposed.
