Ok, so this is about taxes and caught my eye

"Obama talks cap-gains rate with CNBC"

"In an interview in conjunction with his big economic speech in New York, Senator Obama tells CNBC’s Maria Bartiromo he favors increasing the capital-gains tax rate.

Bartiromo reported after her interview: “Right now, as you know, the cap gains tax is at 15 percent. He has yet to give us a specific number. How high he wants that number to go? He has said, and he told me today, that he won't go above 28 percent. So we are talking about the possibility of a doubling in the capital gains tax. He was averaging at about 25 percent.”

Just what we need--more taxes. Just like a Democrat---take more money away from hard working people and give it to people who aren't.
