(Ted Kwong) – On territorial tax system, Simpson-Bowles, Medicare, jobs record And Osama Bin Laden<\/p>\n

ABC News: \u201cThat Horrible Territorial Tax System Biden Railed Against\u201d http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/blogs\/politics\/2012\/09\/that-horrible-territorial-tax-system-biden-railed-against\/<\/a><\/p>\n

VP Biden railed against Romney backing a territorial tax system. But a number of advisers to the president support the idea as well \u2013 including members of the President\u2019s Export Council, the commission the president set up to recommend ways to reduce the deficit, and members of his Council on Jobs and Competitiveness.<\/p>\n

ABC News: \u201cSimpson Bowles Again\u201d http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/blogs\/politics\/2012\/09\/simpson-bowles-again\/<\/a><\/p>\n

This is an incredible line from the Vice President about the \u201cSimpson-Bowles Commission\u201d considering that the White House failed to embrace it \u2013 \u201cIn Tampa, they talked with great urgency about the nation\u2019s debt. And the need to act, to act now. But not once, not one single time, did they tell you that they rejected every plan put forward by us\u2013by the bipartisan Simpson-Bowles Commission they referenced\u2014or by other respected outside group\u2014to reduce the national debt. They were not for any of them. Why? Because they\u2019re not prepared to do anything about the debt if it contained even one dollar, not exaggerating, even one dollar\u2014one cent\u2014in new taxes for millionaires. Folks, that\u2019s not courage. And that\u2019s not fair.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bloomberg: \u201cBiden Overstates Impact of Romney\u2019s Tax Plan: Reality Check\u201d http:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/2012-09-07\/biden-overstates-impact-of-romney-s-tax-plan-reality-check.html<\/a><\/p>\n

President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden made a number of factual assertions in their acceptance speeches. How did they square with reality?<\/p>\n

Foreign Policy: \u201cBiden Was Against The Bin Laden Raid, Before He Was For It\u201d http:\/\/thecable.foreignpolicy.com\/posts\/2012\/09\/06\/biden_was_against_the_bin_laden_raid_before_he_was_for_it<\/a><\/p>\n

Vice President Joe Biden highlighted President Barack Obama’s decision to green light the May 2011 raid that killed Osama bin Laden as a key indicator of his qualification to be president — but Biden didn’t mention, as he has in the past, that he advised Obama against going through with the raid at the time.<\/p>\n

WaPo: \u201cBiden Wrong On Ryan\u2019s Medicare Plan\u201d http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/blogs\/election-2012\/wp\/2012\/09\/06\/biden-wrong-on-ryans-medicare-plan\/<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat they didn\u2019t tell you is what they\u2019re proposing would cause Medicare to go bankrupt by 2016.\u201d \u2013Vice President Biden This is wrong. There are different parts of Medicare, much of which is paid from general revenues and premiums. Part A, which pays hospitals, has a \u201ctrust fund,\u201d made up of special-issue Treasury bonds, that always seems to be on the edge of running dry. But even so, the payroll tax could pay most estimated expenditures for decades. And does anyone doubt Congress would not step in and fill any gaps?<\/p>\n

AP: \u201cFact Check: Biden On Jobs And Medicare\u201d http:\/\/hosted.ap.org\/dynamic\/stories\/U\/US_CVN_DEMOCRATS_FACT_CHECK?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2012-09-06-22-30-40<\/a><\/p>\n

Vice President Joe Biden cited job gains under President Barack Obama while ignoring overall job losses, standard fare at the Democratic National Convention. And he laced into Republicans for pitching a Medicare plan that bears little resemblance to their actual proposals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
