What About Obama’s Promise Not to Raise Taxes?…

Hey, remember when Obama promised no taxes would be raised on folks making less than $250G? What about that now? Well, apparently there is a “process” and it’s something to laugh about!

Remember what happened to the last President …

Is that a look of disgust on the link picture? It’s the same look I see when I’ve caught someone in a lie, and they are still trying to get away with it.

[...] Video at HotAir: Actually, they might be laughing more at Gibbs’s feeble way of ducking the question than The One’s looming broken promise, but in Gibbs’s defense, what’s he supposed to say? Obama pounded McCain for wanting to pay for health care by taxing benefits, rode into D.C. promising Change, and now he’s going to eat a crap sandwich by reversing himself because it turns out personal charisma doesn’t work on hard economic numbers. So Axelrod and company have to go out and face the firing squad and “explain” via stuttering half-answers why Barry O lied about this last year. It’s a political microcosm of Obama’s economic M.O.: They borrowed political capital by pledging “no new taxes” to win the election and now down the road the bill’s finally come due. [...]

I think I’ll try using “We’re gonna let the process work its way through” as my new catch-all for “No, and I was indeed lying, but I don’t really want to say that.”

“You said you’d pay for your entire college education. Are you still going to do that?”
“We’re gonna let the process work its way through.”
etc.

Boy oh boy!

Has anyone looked at HR 1799. It’s yet another tax. Oh and yes it will tax those who make under 250k.

The Government does not make anything but laws and print money to cover what they spend and therefore have to recoup money through taxing citizens. How else can they pay for all the spending projects, other than devaluate the dollar and tax citizens that work.

Capejasmine, are you actually giving me a lecture on capitalism because I was facetiously asking someone about his use of the misspelled “capitolist”?

What do you like so much about the US Capitol that you would describe yourself as a Capitolist?

SD on June 30, 2009 at 12:57 PM

I don’t know what a capitolist is? Do you mean capitalist? Proud to be one! ;) Did you know most other countries are turning toward capitalism, because they know now, that it leads to prosperity, and success for a nation? If you can’t abide being one, stop buying stuff. Use leaves instead of toilet paper. Live entirely off the land, and walk, walk walk, everywhere. Because every time you purchase, or use anything that costs money, you’re contributing to capitalism, comrade! ;)
