Umm...he did do that..."-Raise the top income tax rates from their current 33 percent and 35 percent rates to 36 percent and 39.6 percent in 2011."
"-Raise cigarette tax by 62 cents a pack."
"-Raise taxes on beer, wine, liquor, and soda."
"-Tax AIG employee bonuses."
I wish the could be done but it's illegal so I wouldn't support it.
Yes Obama broke his promise. He said he wouldn't tax people making under 250,000 a year anymore than before. He raised the cigarette tax, and a very large percentage of cigarette users are in the lower income brackets.
He is in a "Read my lips, no new taxes" moment.

This has got to be the stupidest thread ever. Taking the "article" of some neo-con from now where, and posting it...wow is all I have to say.
Shall we call this an epic fail, or just fail?
