Moments after President Obama rolled out a sweeping overhaul proposal for corporate taxes — wiping out many deductions while reducing the corporate tax rate — Republican primary contender Mitt Romney introduced tax reductions of his own. The Romney proposal calls for a 20 percent reduction in marginal rates for personal income tax — which would reduce taxes across all brackets. The differences between the two plans reflect the divergent approaches to taxes underlying their election campaigns. Obama has chosen not to pursue changes in income tax rates, and instead wants to eliminate tax breaks, deductions, and special strategies that allow many American companies to dramatically discount the amount of taxes they pay.

A two-month-old Democratic super PAC is trying to make waves with edgy a and misleading – ads attacking Republican candidate Mitt Romney. But the group has little funding, and is relying mostly on social media to disseminate its message.

Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum has rocketed to the top of the polls in Ohio, according to a new Quinnipiac University poll out today.

Rick Santorum is trying to counteract a broadside of negative advertising from rival Mitt Romney with a lighthearted television commercial of his own titled, aRombo.a It features a maniacal but inept body double for Romney running around an empty building firing a rifle – loaded with mud – at a target of Santorum. Each of the rapid-fire shots misses. The ad accuses Romney of trying to hide his own record, and says the attacks will backfire on the Republican.
Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum has yet to release his tax returns, despite saying on Sunday that he would do so within a couple of days.

Santorum said his tax returns, which he completed himself, were on his home computer. aWhen I get home, youall get my taxes,a he said.
In November, according to Newt Gingrich, voters will decide whether ato decisively repudiate an 80 year drift to the left: a drift in our newsrooms; a drift in our colleges and universities; a drift with our judges; and a drift among elected politicians.a As he tries to mount another comeback in the roller coaster that is the Republican presidential primary, the Gingrich campaign released a web video featuring the Statue of Liberty, a waving American flag, everyday citizens, and the soaring rhetoric that has come to define this candidate.
Struggling to maintain his frontrunner status, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is using his fundraising prowess to try to boost his image. A super PAC supporting Romney is going on the air with ads in eight states. The super PAC is spending $1.5 million in advertising in states that will hold primaries in February and March. The new wave of spending could serve to combat the growing popularity of Rick Santorum, who is now running head to head with Romney in national polls, propelled by support from conservative and Tea Party voters.
A News Blog about Motorcycle Accident Attorneys Orange County. Personal injury is a legal term for an injury to the body, mind or emotions, as opposed to an injury to property. The term is most commonly used to refer to a type of tort lawsuit alleging that the plaintiff’s injury has been caused by the negligence of another, but also arises in defamation torts. The most common types of personal injury claims are road traffic accidents, accidents at work, tripping accidents, assault claims, accidents in the home, product defect accidents (product liability) and holiday accidents. The term personal injury also incorporates medical and dental accidents (which lead to numerous medical negligence claims every year) and conditions that are often classified as industrial disease cases, including asbestosis and peritoneal mesothelioma, chest diseases (e.g., emphysema, pneumoconiosis, silicosis, chronic bronchitis, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and chronic obstructive airways disease), vibration white finger, occupational deafness, occupational stress, contact dermititis, and repetitive strain injury cases. If the negligence of another party can be proved, the injured party may be entitled to monetary compensation from that party. In the United States, this system is complex and controversial, with critics calling for various forms of tort reform. From: Motorcycle Accident Attorneys Orange County. Attorneys and lawyers often represent clients on a “contingency basis,” in which the attorney’s fee is a percentage of the plaintiff’s eventual compensation, payable when the case is resolved.
