Y'know, it's not even funny anymore. This blatant disregard by the so called 'reputable' media of Obama's endless and daily blunders.
No one has pointed out the numerous broken promises, but this latest one needs pointing out. For those of you that remember Georg Bush Sr.'s fatal mistake of "... no new taxes!" got him in hot water when he was strong armed into raising taxes. But twenty years later, the Messiah hits the campaign trail spouting his "No taxes" on the poor rhetoric.
"I can make a firm pledge," he said in
Dover, N.H., on Sept. 12. "Under my plan, no family making less than
$250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax,
not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your
taxes."He repeatedly vowed "you will not see any of your taxes increase one single dime."
Yet today the largest increase in tobacco taxes has taken effect. The federal tax on a pack of cigarettes is now $1.01. The surprising thing (and the thing none of the Obama choir seem to care about) is how this tax is an increase on the poor, who disproportionately smoke. This move is, in fact, a tax increase on the poor.
Joe 'Exeter' Biden also jumped on the "I'm all about tax cuts just to get elected, but then I'll stab ya when ya ain't looking'" bandwagon. "No one making less than $250,000 under Barack Obama's plan will see one single penny of their tax raised," he said, "whether it's their capital gains tax, their income tax, investment tax, any tax."
You would think the Koolaid drinkers on the left would have learned after the Bill Clinton tax cut promise that was broken in record time. He championed middle class tax cuts all through the campaign. But after a couple months in office, he went on national TV, bit his lower lip, and said he couldn't do it. What compassion! 
Of course the Obama Press Corps (NBC, MSNBC, CNN, etc.) will play this down by claiming he meant only income taxes. I guess you just can't take what anyone in this administration says at face value. If Obama told us the sky is blue, I'd still look out the window just to be sure.
Just words, eh Barry?
