"We are one of those people that make over $250,000 a year, and I don't agree that that makes us rich," said Melinda Sacks, who runs her husband's law office in San Clemente, referring to Obama's answer at the forum that put her in the "wealthy" category. "Even with that kind of income, we struggle to pay everything we have gotten ourselves into."

I would answer thus...

Well, as devout Christians who understand that faith involves actions, I hope that you understand that your situation is better than fully 97% of your fellow Americans.

We have to start somewhere, and on the road to responsibility, we will improve America's standing.

When we return America, jobs and the dollar closer to the positions of strength they held during the last Democratic administration, I am confident that your opportunities and situation will improve as well.

Maybe they are afraid because they have a Ponzi scheme going and the tax increase will expose their criminal enterprise.

Why did you not comment on 5 million dollars McCain stated? Just be truthful about this. You are just bias. Whether you feel like it or not 250,000 dollars is a fair amount of income.
