Whats dumb is that you cant see that he lied to you also just because you dont smoke doesnt mean he didnt break the promise
Well we are going off of what he said. He said we wouldn't raises taxes on families. That's right from your quote. So I dot have a Family and I don't smoke... so no raised taxes for ME!!!

While I'm a bit disappointed, I don't believe 11 months is time enough to judge if we're heading in the right direction but..............................
I've seen NOTHING to convince me McCain would've been a better choice and couldn't possibly bring myself to vote for Palin as VP. The GOP needs something better than the constant fear-mongering negative campaigns and the continual use of abortion and gay issues as their main blathering points. They've sure done little in the past 30 years to live up to their alleged fiscal conservatism.
Taxes are taxes, period. You are splitting hairs with this argument.
no, lol, YOU are. you must be a smoker.

No, people are not mad, kindergardeners who see the world in black and white are mad. Compromises in these tough situations are rarely all or nothing. You have to give a little to get a little. If you expect Obama or any political representative to always keep 100% of every promise, you're going to be severely disappointed. If those representing us were always completely honest in their campaign elections, i.e., "I'm going to try and get done what I can, but not everything I campaign for is going to make it through", no one would vote for them. I mean, I would, but that's not how most people work.

Again I'm only using the quote you gave.
Do u not know why he said family of 250K?
Once again just because you dont smoke doesnt mean he didnt break the promise to you also. Think about it for a while and you just might get it

But we are going to us EXACTLY what he said right? So a Family that smokes will be taxes more. What a liar!
