Funny how those who benefit the most do nothing to share their wealth in the U.S. Seen in a sig line: There are two types of Republicans. Millionares and Dupes. Three: Entrepreneurs. It's rare, but not unheard of, to find a business where the owner is not a Republican (independent bookstores excepted). |

CBS's Early Show Discredits 'The Real Joe the Plumber'
2. ABC: McCain Would Help 'Wealthiest,' Obama to Cut Taxes for '95%'
ABC reporter David Wright on Tuesday night, forced to summarize the tax plans of John McCain and Barack Obama in 30 seconds, described them through a distorted liberal prism. Though McCain wishes to continue all the income tax rates from the Bush tax cuts, with no hike or decrease for any income level, Wright asserted: "He'd make permanent the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans." No, for all Americans. Obama, Wright proceeded to report, "would raise taxes on the wealthy, people who make more than $250,000 a year, but cut them for most households." The text on screen, however, stated an impossibility: "Cut taxes on most households (95%)." That 95 percent is impossible since one-third of those who file with the IRS are "non- payers," people who end up paying no tax or get money back which exceeds their payments. Obama plans to expand the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and create other credits. For those for whom the credits surpass their tax obligation, those are not tax cuts, but spending hikes or federal giveaways akin to welfare. 3. To McCain, CNN's Chetry Forwards Canard Obama Cuts Taxes for 90% CNN pressed Senators John McCain and Joe Biden about their campaigns' respective tax plans on Tuesday's American Morning during back-to- back interviews. Co-host Kiran Chetry questioned McCain from the left, citing the supposedly "non-partisan" Tax Policy Center that is actually run by two liberal organizations, the Brookings Institution and the Urban Institute, while her colleague John Roberts asked Biden about the "income redistribution" that is part of the Obama/Biden campaign's tax proposal. Chetry counted a McCain point by claiming "most of our independent economists say that Barack Obama is actually cutting taxes for about 90 percent of Americans," which is not possible since one-third pay no income tax.

Obama plans to expand the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and create other credits. For those for whom the credits surpass their tax obligation, those are not tax cuts, but spending hikes or federal giveaways akin to welfare. A June report from the Tax Foundation listed 32.58 percent of IRS income tax returns for 2005 as "non-paying." See: www.taxfoundation.org In addition, Obama's plan calls for raising the 33 and 36 percent tax brackets. In 2008, those with an income as low as $100,150, not $250,000, paid at the 33 percent rate. See this Tax Foundation report from January. Tax Foundation report: www.taxfoundation.org [This item, by the MRC's Brent Baker, was posted Tuesday night on the MRC's blog, NewsBusters.org: newsbusters.org ] Wright's September 16 story on how the two candidates approach the economy was the premiere of a new World News series: "What's the Difference"? Where Wright summarized their tax plans: "Perhaps the sharpest difference between the two is on the taxes people pay. McCain believes cutting taxes across the board would promote economic growth. He'd make permanent the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans, cut corporate taxes and double the personal exception for dependents. "Obama would raise taxes on the wealthy, people who make more than $250,000 a year, but cut them for most households. He's give middle class families a thousand-dollar tax credit and cut tax taxes completely for seniors on fixed incomes." This is not the first time ABC has exaggerated how many would benefit from Obama's tax plan. The September 15 CyberAlert item, "Gibson Advanced to Palin What Hume Calls an Obama 'Dishonesty,'" recounted: Speaking of "dishonesty" in McCain's TV ads, on Fox News Sunday Brit Hume pointed out Barack "Obama goes around claiming he's going to cut the taxes of 95 percent of the public, which is literally impossible" since "40 percent of American taxpayers don't pay any income tax," but that hasn't stopped ABC (directly) and CBS (implicitly) in recent days from advancing that Obama claim as fact. Charles Gibson, in his third interview session with Sarah Palin excerpted on Friday's 20/20 and Nightline, stated that Obama will extend the "Bush tax cuts on everything but people who own or earn more than $250,000 a year -- cuts taxes on over 91 percent of the country." For the full previous CyberAlert article: www.mediaresearch.org CNN forwarded the same faulty exaggeration Tuesday morning as Kiran Chetry insisted to John McCain: "Most of our independent economists say that Barack Obama is actually cutting taxes for about 90 percent of Americans." (See CyberAlert item #3 below) Excerpts from a Tax Foundation summary of the McCain and Obama tax plans: McCain: - Continue the lower rates enacted in the 2001-03 tax cuts. - Increase the dependent exemption each year until it reaches $7,000 in 2016 (the 2016 level would be twice the level in 2009) - Phase out the AMT. - Maintain the 15% rate on capital gains and dividends. Obama: - Maintain the current 10, 15, 25, and 28 percent rates from the 2001-03 tax cuts, but allow the top two rates to expire (the 33 percent rate would rise to 36 percent; the 35 percent would rise to 39.6 percent). Eliminate all income taxation of seniors making less than $50,000 per year. - Create a new "Making Work Pay" refundable income tax credit of up to $500 per person or $1,000 per family. It would offset the payroll tax on the first $8,100 of earnings. - Create a 10 percent mortgage credit worth up to $800. - Give full-time workers making minimum wage an Earned Income Tax Credit benefit up to $555. If the workers are "responsibly supporting their children on child support," give those workers a benefit of $1,110. - Extend AMT patch. - Raise capital gains and dividends rates to somewhere between 20% and 28%, keeping them equal. PDF of the Tax Foundation's summary: taxfoundation.org To McCain, CNN's Chetry Forwards Canard Obama Cuts Taxes for 90% CNN pressed Senators John McCain and Joe Biden about their campaigns' respective tax plans on Tuesday's American Morning during back-to-back interviews. Co-host Kiran Chetry questioned McCain from the left, citing the supposedly "non-partisan" Tax Policy Center that is actually run by two liberal organizations, the Brookings Institution and the Urban Institute, while her colleague John Roberts asked Biden about the "income redistribution" that is part of the Obama/Biden campaign's tax proposal. Chetry counted a McCain point by claiming "most of our independent economists say that Barack Obama is actually cutting taxes for about 90 percent of Americans," which is not possible since one-third pay no income tax. [This item, by Matthew Balan, was posted Tuesday afternoon on the MRC's blog, NewsBusters.org: newsbusters.org ] For more on how the mainstream media loves citing the "non- partisan" Tax Policy Center, see the July 15, 2008 Worst of the Week item by MRC's Rich Noyes, "Obama's Liberal Buddies = 'Non-Partisan' Experts?" at: www.mrc.org Chetry interviewed McCain first, and asked the Arizona Senator to explain what he meant by saying that "the fundamentals of the economy are strong" and about regulation of businesses. She then brought up the issue of taxes: "I want to ask you about this, though, when it comes to tax policy -- the non-partisan Tax Policy Center calculated the middle class would actually save significantly more under Barack Obama's tax plan than yours. How will your tax cuts, as it breaks down on income level, benefit the working class and the middle class?" McCain didn't submit to the premise of the question, and answered that Obama actually wants to raise taxes and that he "has plans for increasing government spending dramatically." The CNN co-host then followed-up by citing that "most of our independent economists say that Barack Obama is actually cutting taxes for about 90 percent of Americans. Do you agree with that?" Obama plans to cut the taxes for about 90 percent of Americans? That figure sounds remarkably similar to the 95 percent figure Fox News Channel host Brit Hume shot down on Sunday's Fox News Sunday program: "Obama goes around claiming he's going to cut the taxes of 95 percent of the public, which is literally impossible" since "40 percent of American taxpayers don't pay any income tax." For more on Hume shooting down Obama's tax claim, see the September 15 CyberAlert item, "Gibson Advanced to Palin What Hume Calls an Obama 'Dishonesty'" at: www.mrc.org And for more on the same topic, check #2 above. During his interview of Biden, Roberts, after asking the Delaware Senator what he would to in response to the current financial trouble, asked about his campaign's proposed tax hikes on those who make more than $250,000. Biden first denied that this was the case, but when Roberts brought up the figure again, and Biden corrected himself. The CNN co-host then pressed Biden on the timing of such a raise: "With the economy the way it is right now, is this anytime to be raising taxes on anyone?" Biden answered, "We are transferring the tax cut. We're raising the tax on them by letting this tax expire and flipping that tax and giving it to the people who need it." Roberts shot back, "Right, and some people would say that's income redistribution." The Senator replied: "Well, I don't care what you call it -- the middle class is dying. John talks about the strength of the American worker. The American worker's been left out in the cold." |
