A "credible organization" is unbias, not one where the author has visited the White House 12 times and the other author once worked for B.O.

This is again the innuendo, and I flat out reject it. I continue to be consistent in my analysis of why I don't think Romney has a better plan for America.

Here is the reality of Romney's promises:

http://www.csmonitor.com/Business/Tax-VOX/201...

In this case, Romney has promised at least five big things. They are:
To start, he’d make all of the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts permanent but repeal the 2009 Obama tax cuts and the tax increases included in the 2010 health reform law.*(* harms low wage workers)
After that, he’d cut tax rates by 20 percent across the board and eliminate both the Alternative Minimum Tax and the estate tax.
He’d eliminate taxes on investment income for couples making $200,000 or less (individuals making $100,000 or less) and keep current low rates for those with high incomes.
He’d do this without increasing the budget deficit (beyond the cost of extending the 2001-2003 tax cuts) by curbing some tax preferences.
He’d do it in a way that retains the progressivity of today’s tax system.
.... cutting rates this deeply without adding to the deficit or raising taxes on capital income would require massive cuts in those popular tax preferences that overwhelmingly benefit the middle- and upper middle-class. Brown, Gale, and Looney figure that tax breaks such as the deductions for mortgage interest and charitable giving or the exclusion for employer sponsored health insurance would have to be cut by as much as 65 percent for Romney’s plan to add up.(Cont.)

**Previously, Looney was the senior economist for public finance and tax policy with the President’s Council of Economic Advisers**

and has been an economist at the Federal Reserve Board.

Which adds up to a "BIAS" report!

Groups that Support Amnesty

The following groups have all announced that they support a mass amnesty. The groups are divided into four separate categories, including: advocacy, business, unions and religious denominations. We have provided the contact information for each group, and if you are affiliated with one or more of these organizations, we encourage you to contact them to express your opposition to their position.

"Groups that Support Amnesty" Start with the White House!

Administration Officials Deny Granting Back-Door Amnesty

The House Subcommittee on Border and Maritime Security held a hearing
Tuesday to examine the impact that recent Obama Administration policies are
having on border security. At issue were a series of memos issued by U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director John Morton encouraging
agents to ignore certain categories of illegal aliens and the Homeland
Security Department's (DHS) August announcement it would begin reviewing
deportation proceedings on a case-by-case basis and releasing those illegal
aliens it does not consider a "priority." (Washington Times, Aug. 18, 2011;
FAIR Legislative Update, June 27, 2011)

During her opening statement, Subcommittee Chairwoman Candice Miller (R-MI)
declared these policies tantamount to an executive amnesty by the Obama
Administration. "I think when you have the potential to administratively
close hundreds of thousands of removal cases it sends a message, and that
message is clear: that if you make it past the border you're scot- free and
that you can stay here despite breaking our immigration laws unless you
commit a serious crime, and even then there's no guarantee that these
illegal aliens will be deported and sent back to their home. So this action
by the administration is clearly administrative amnesty." (See Chairwoman
Miller's Opening Statement, Oct. 4, 2011)

Administration officials, however, denied their policies grant amnesty to
illegal aliens. When Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX) asked Deputy ICE Director
Kumar Kibble if the administration's policies allow noncriminal aliens to
stay in this country and apply for work permits, Kibble's response was, "No.
That doesn't appropriately characterize the policy..They can certainly apply
for work authorization, but there is no automatic grant .." Instead, Kibble
referred to the policy of releasing illegal aliens into the public and
granting work authorization to them as merely a means of "unclogging the
immigration court docket" so the agency can accelerate its "high-priority"
cases. Chief Michael Fisher of the U.S. Border Patrol agreed that the best
way to "unclog" the overburdened immigration system is to release illegal
aliens. "[I]t's certainly CBP's perspective," he said "[that] when you look
at the prosecutorial discretion memo that Director Morton signed.it's going
to allow us more detention capability for those entrants that we apprehend
between the ports of entry, and from a prioritized enforcement standpoint we
do support that."

<quoted text>First off, this is NOT WaPos analysis. It's their assessment that the analysis of the TPC was credible and essentially correct. Nobody is asking anybody to work harder or longer for less. Taxpayers in the top 1% aren't going to go to work an hour earlier or stay fifteen minutes longer in the d*mned board room because they sustained a tax increase. All the percentage gyration machinations in the world have no impact on this reality. They're already sitting on a couple Trillion dollars in cash reserves.
In sum, if you assume a bunch of stuff, include a bunch of stuff that Romney never said and then leave out all of Romney’s other policies, then Romney’s plan doesn’t work. TPC does this in the guise of “assumptions,” which President Obama’s ads and pro-Obama pundits leave out.(This is not unlike the Obama team’s “outsourcing” gambit, in which a much more limited factual assertion gets used for a much broader, unsupported political assertion.)

In short, TPC does not provide the silver bullet for slaying Romney’s tax plans that Obama supporters would tell you it does. All it says is that a left-wing tax think tank can come up with a hypothetical in which Romney’s plan would not be possible.

As a final aside, the standard for specificity in a campaign Romney is supposed to adhere to, if you listen to Obama’s team and/or the media, is a far cry from the way it worked in 2008 or from that applied in this campaign to Obama. In 2008 it was fine for Obama simply to say he wouldn’t raise taxes on the rich and would go line-by-line through the budget (neither of which turned out to be true). So far, other than the Buffett tax gambit and a hike in corporate tax rates, we’ve seen nothing from Obama that comes close to the level of detail provided by Romney’s team on tax reform.

Rachel Maddow: Frequent White House Visitor

By Alexander Abad-Santos | The Atlantic Wire

A look at visitor logs from The White House has MSNBC's star being cleared
to enter The White House seven times and meeting with Obama face-to-face
three of those times--a number on par with King Abdullah of Jordan. That's
what the conservative-leaning Neil Munro at the conservative-leaning Daily
Caller reports.(Munro's piece doesn't state the specificities of how far
back he looked at the logs--it looks as though the visits are all from this
past year.) He concludes, "Rachel Maddow is the president's favorite media
hack." Sure, the piece gives reasons as to why Maddow's visits are out of
the ordinary (her ratings aren't as good as Fox's) and insinuates that The
President is being wasteful with his time (King Abdullah has the same amount
of visits), and that her visits mean that she's more better liked than
Arianna Huffington and Fareed Zakaria--all of which are subjective
conclusions which are arguably all up for debate.
