Chances are that he pays a helluvalot more taxes than you do. I'm not saying that the rich shouldnt pay more taxes. I'm saying it should be an equal percentage of income. And McCain wants tax cuts across the board, not just to the rich. And as for Obama... The guy has probabally not worked a hard day in his life. He is very wealthy and set for life, so what does he care about taxes? He will still get a juicy salary if elected president or even if he stays in congress. And you shouldnt smack talk rush, b/c he is alot smarter than you think he is.
Obama's parents divorced when he was two, his dad moved to Kenya and he went to school with his mom in Indonesia. He lived with his grandparents from 5th grade until he finished high school. He went to Colombia and Harvard to get his law degree, he taught at the University of Chicago. At Chicago he taught Constitutional law for 12 years. At Harvard he became President of Harvard Law Review, the most prestigious review journal in the country. He worked for a group of Catholic churches in South Chicago where he ran a program to help educate kids, where he quadrupled their annual budget in 3 years.
I know McCain was in the Navy, which deserves respect, but you can't say that Obama hasn't worked a hard day in his life.
