Anyone else heard about this?
I'm hoping it goes through..

[Niki]

Yep. It's been in the news a lot lately. We sure could use it. But then who (besides the rich) couldn't?

[kkay]

I think it'd be wonderful! It seems like they're going to put it into effect, too. I could wait until May or June for it.

[Sis]

It's nice, but I can hardly see where a one-time rebate will stimulate the economy beyond the first month. DUHHHHHH. Tax cuts would do more to stimulate the economy long-term.

[kkay]

This is true..but I think Bush is maybe trying to have a not so bad ending to his presidency maybe.

I think tax cuts should come with the new president so that there will be a good chance of them staying constant for a while.

[sunlight]

i'll save mine for a few months and stimulate the economy later on... there! its more than the first month now! lol!

[Sis]

Well, Bush had implemented a tax cut that's about to expire. The "other side" wants to raise taxes.

[kkay]

I think we should have both the tax cuts and the rebate. That'd make me a happy camper

I was looking at my boyfriend's W-2 form the other day and I could not believe how much more taxes were taken out of his than mine! (He lives in Michigan..) I'm definitely not looking forward to that..

[Sis]

I vote for apostolic_girl!

[kkay]

..and I promise that when I'm president that blah blah blah

[Sis]

Just say lower taxes, no gay marriages and no state funded abortions and we'll vote for ya.   

[kkay]

"Lower taxes, no gay marriages and no state funded abortions."

[Sis]

You got my vote!

If elected president I promise:

1. To fire the head of FEMA.
2. To do all I can within the confines of legal process to get every single illegal alien out of the country.
3. To pardon anyone convicted of violating the "rights" of illegal aliens.
4. To ok plural marriage.
5. To make Amelia Bedelia, Sunlight, and Sippin Tea the first ladies :-)

[sunlight]

haha!

* sunlight votes

but im not tellin who im  voting for

[Sis]

Planks 4 & 5 did you in, brother!

[World Traveler]

No. Planks 4 and 5 show may fairness and humanity. I will have a blonde, brunette, and a redhead. Since I am gray headed that would  make everyone happy. :-) (especially me!  )

[Sis]

Go back to Saudi Arabia! BLAH!

You're nuts. The answer is 'no'. And yes, that's my final answer.

No. Planks 4 and 5 show may fairness and humanity. I will have a blonde, brunette, and a redhead. Since I am gray headed that would  make everyone happy. :-) (especially me!  )

Tsk, tsk... you're colorblind (again!). But it would be amusing to me to see who you think is blond, brunette, and redheaded. 

Planks 4 & 5 did you in, brother!

True dat. I was planning on voting for him until he got to 4 & 5. Too bad, so sad.

[Sis]

Tsk, tsk... you're colorblind (again!). But it would be amusing to me to see who you think is blond, brunette, and redheaded. 

How about gray-haired?

*cough*

[Sis]

Isn't he a little old for you?

[SippinTea]

Ya think?

[Sis]

Was thinking someone more like this for you....

[World Traveler]

Amelia is the brunette, Sunlight is the redhead, and I thought Sippin Tea was the blonde... I guess she is light brown.

As for age... if you add them all together it works :-)
