Promises to be Broken
- President Barack Obama said he is “agnostic” about raising taxes on households making less than $250,000 as part of a broad effort to rein in the budget deficit.
Obama, in a Feb. 9 Oval Office interview, said that a presidential commission on the budget needs to consider all options for reducing the deficit, including tax increases and cuts in spending on entitlement programs such as Social Security and Medicare.
[...] Obama repeatedly vowed during the 2008 presidential election campaign that he would not raise taxes on individuals making less than $200,000 and households earning less than $250,000 a year.
That promise was made in excess of 40 times according to Lexis-Nexis. Bush the Elder went back on that promise and became the only victorious wartime president to lose an election.

So let's cut the programs that people actually paid into, social security and medicare? Hey asshole barry O., how about link and welfare?
HA! WTF did these assholes think was going to happen?
I hope all of the jag-offs from Park Ridge who showed up in Grant Park with their kids wearing Obama shirts on election night get it stuck in their asses real fucking hard!
Teach these mopes a lesson in practical, applied, confiscatory socialism Barry!
Fuckin morons....getting what they deserve.
can u say one term president?
Anyone that voted for this disaster thinking he wasn't going to raise taxes is a complete fuckin moron!!!!
Omama=LIAR. If his lips are moving, he's Lieing, just like Daley.
I know everyones situation is different, but according to my tax person, my taxes will go UP 3000.00 next year, when the Bush tax cuts sunset. Marginal rate goes back to 28%, marraige penalty reinstated, less deduction for the children.
If this country is short on money, please explain how we can justify sending money to Haiti, and other countries that have natural disasters???
Fix what is wrong at home first.
Wow I'm so suprised!
CNN stated Obamutt is going to spend more in 2 years than Bush did in 8.
Hey big spender... "Keep the Change!"
not shocking cant wait until CHANGE in 2012
If he does it. His credibility is shot with everyone left on his side.
Chicago politics... did we really think he was going to help or doing anything different then his mentor daley... raise taxes and lease, daley is leasing so obama will do the same, maybe china will buy america and bail us out...
Anonymous said, "Some things never CHANGE."
Some things WILL CHANGE, ladies and gentlemen. The progressive/socialist democrats in power in the White House and in local government WILL BE VOTED OUT AND CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES VOTED IN. Out with socialist/communits/revolutionaries and in with conservative Republicans who believe in the Constitution, our Judeo-Christian foundation, beliefs and values, and our desire to retain FREEDOM AND LIBERTY. If we do not make these changes, our country will crash and burn...just review the changes that have occurred in this country under obama and understand that the failure of these changes are manufactured by design...they are designed to fail, in order for the proressive democrats to bring about the next step which is a dictatorship under obama and a socialist style of governing...think Venezuela, Cuba. Research this yourself if you have doubts..i.e. Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, obama's handbook. Check out Glenn Beck daily at 4pm on Fox...he has made great inroads and has unveiled the truth behind who these "czars" and other radical socialist/communists are in obama's administration. Beck is doing the investigating, the digging, that other news outlets WILL NOT DO. Also check out Andrew Breitbart on biggovernment.com...this man is fearless, as is Beck. Remove this cancer in the White House before we lose all that we love and hold near and dear. Fight these vermin as if your life depended upon it, because it does.
agnostic is Greek for ignoramous
C'mon, no one really believed that "not going to raises taxes" shit did they? And look at your check, my taxes went up $9 a check. How about yours?
Taxes are going to go up so we can pay for Wall Street bailouts, bank bonuses and hedge funds that need to be rescued. The Republicans are no better.
The Republicans talk about small government, less taxes, etc... but when they had the chance, they did the opposite. Under the Bush years when Republicans controlled congress, spending and the size and scope of government went up (minus the cost of the two wars and the war against terrorism included btw).
Entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare??!! How about entitlement programs like Link, CHA, wlefare, the stupid check and all the other BS that the savage gets for doing nothing other than being a parasite and a waste of life. Just another useless Democrat punishing the working population and pandering to those who have never and will never work for a living.
"Will eliminate all income taxation of seniors making less than $50,000 per year. This will eliminate taxes for 7 million seniors -- saving them an average of $1,400 a year-- and will also mean that 27 million seniors will not need to file an income tax return at all."
Broken promise no. 24

How about budget cuts on pet programs and generationally "afflicted" welfare families?
OT, there was actually a good article on the Leftist attack of abstinence education in schools. Sheds a lot of light on who is populating this planet at such an irresponsible rate.
