McCain Calls For Tax Cuts, Job Training

This sounds a whole bunch better then simply giving money to people, eh?

ATLANTA (AP) — Republican presidential candidate John McCain, who has said economics isn’t his strong suit, said Friday tax cuts and job training are needed to lift an economy that is either in recession or is headed toward one.

The Arizona senator said President Bush’s tax cuts, passed by Congress over McCain’s objections, should be made permanent so that families and companies do not see tax increases when the cuts expire in 2010. And he called for slashing corporate taxes and repealing the alternative minimum tax, which was originally aimed at the wealthy but now threatens to hit millions in the middle class unless Congress continues to provide annual adjustments to it.

Compare this to the Democrats, who consider the money that you, and companies, make is not actually yours, but an allowance that the government is kind enough to let keep to some degree.

“I’ve been involved in economic issues affecting this country for the last 25 years,” McCain said. “Of course I am probably better-versed on national security issues, certainly far more than any of my potential two opponents.”

And what about Hillary Clinton, Fratricidal Maniac?

The morning after Tuesday’s primaries, Hillary Clinton’s campaign released a memo titled “The Path to the Presidency.” I eagerly dug into the paper, figuring it would explain how Clinton would obtain the Democratic nomination despite an enormous deficit in delegates. Instead, the memo offered a series of arguments as to why Clinton should run against John McCain - i.e., “Hillary is seen as the one who can get the job done” - but nothing about how she actually could. Is she planning a third-party run? Does she think Obama is going to die? The memo does not say.

I don’t think the love affair with Hillary is going very well for either cBS or The New Republic.
