Barry will take credit for the blip up yesterday and poor George takes the

I just listened to someone explaining Obama's tax plan in English (so I
sorta understood it).

According to the source, slightly over 40% of taxpayers will pay *no* taxes,
yet a large percentage of that group will get a refund check every January.

Cool, huh?

Another thing I can't get straightened out in my simple head. Obama claims
that 95% of US citizens will have their taxes reduced according to his plan.
Yet, over 40% don't pay taxes at all. How do you get 95% out of 60%?

Is this the *new* math that I missed?

If you just heard that, you need to listen to that station more often.
It'll never make the major media, but the fact has been known for quite a
while. Why McCain has not commented on it is beyond me. Maybe he's afraid
of hurting the feelings of the 30-40 percent of Americans who pay no taxes.
