The Choice on Taxes.
Mitt Romney's Plan: A 25% tax cut for Millionaires. Tax breaks for oil companies and corproations that ship jobs overseas. But a tax hike for 18 Million Working Familes.
Barack Obama's Plan: Ask the Wealthy to Pay a Little More so the Middle Class Pays Less. Eliminate Oil Subsidies and Tax Breaks for Companies that Outsource.
Two Plans. Your Choice.
I'm Barack Obama and I approve this message.

The reality is that you can't win an election by talking positively about taxes.

"Why the FUCK are we spreading the meme that taxes (and the public goods they fund)"
Watch the ad again, the "meme" is that Romney wants to raise taxes on the middle class and give tax cuts to the rich, oil companies and those that ship jobs overseas.
I approve of that message.

Don't know about you, but I want to fight the privatization of everything.
