Obama Wants To Repeal Bush Tax Cuts For The Most Wealthy–In Hard Times, Those Who Can Pay Should Pay
\
President Obama wants to repeal the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of Americans.
The tax cut will be repealed for those making more than $250,000 in a dual-earner household or $200,0o0 in a single-earner household.
Nobody else would have the tax cuts repealed.
This is the kind of leadership we need.
In these hard times, those who can pay should pay.
Bill White Does Well In Poll Because He Is Going To Win The Election
Former Houston Mayor Bill White is easily within striking distance of incumbent Governor Rick Perry according a new poll.
Why is this race so close?
It is so close because Bill White is going to beat Rick Perry on November 2.
Here is the White campaign web page.
Don’t take my word for why you should vote for Bill White. I’m an ideologically motivated partisan.
Go to the website yourself and see why 10 years of Rick Perry so far is enough, and see if you agree that Bill White is someone who will do a good job for Texas.
Even in Republican Texas, people seem to have had enough of Rick Perry.
Welcome To Texas Liberal
Texas Liberal is a blog of politics and political history.
My name is Neil Aquino. Here is my profile.
I can be reached at naa618@att.net.
Additional focuses of the blog are books, art, poetry, personal relationships and, also, sea life and marine mammals.
( The picture above is of the Houston Ship Channel. A narrow channel can lead to a wide sea.)
The signature post of this blog is the Martin Luther King Reading & Reference List. This list is the best of it’s kind on the web.
Another good post is my reciting the words to the Shaker hymn Simple Gifts on Galveston Island, Texas as a ship passes behind.
I live in Houston, Texas and I do sometimes write about political issues in Houston and in Texas.
I also often write about my former hometown of Cincinnati, and about the great beach city of Galveston, Texas.
I define liberalism as a role for government in the economy to help make life more fair, and a broad acceptance of people regardless of who they are.
This is why it says “All People Matter” at the top of the blog.
A blog grows one reader at a time. If you like what you read here, please consider forwarding the link.
Texas Liberal began regular posting on July 25, 2006.
I also blog at the Houston Chronicle as one of eight featured political bloggers, and on Where’s The Outrage? which posts out of North Carolina.
Thanks for reading Texas Liberal.
