During the campaign, Obama made a definitive promise not to raise any taxes on families making less than $250,000 per year:

“I can make a firm pledge. 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” (September 12, 2008, Dover, NH)

"No one making less than $250,000 under Barack Obama's plan will see one single penny of their tax raised," Joe Biden said, "whether it's their capital gains tax, their income tax, investment tax, any tax."(Joe Biden, Oct. 3, 2008, Vice Presidential Debate, St. Louis, MO)

On Tax Day White House spokesman Robert Gibbs was asked if the President’s tax pledge applies “to the health care bill” Gibbs assured us that it did:

“The statement didn’t come with caveats.”

On August 3, 2009, Gibbs was asked again about the Obama'ss tax pledge, Gibbs replied:

“I am reiterating the President's clear commitment in the clearest terms possible, that he's not raising taxes on those who make less than $250,000 a year.” (White House Briefing)

The more we read about the about the House's $1.8 Trillion Obamacare bill and its $1 Trillion in new taxes, the more we see that many of those new taxes do not conform to Obama’s promise of not raising taxes to people making under $250,000. But promises don't really matter when one is trying to redistribute income. Today Obama endorsed H.R. 3962, which is loaded with tax hikes on families making less than $250,000 per year. Here’s how:

He’s a Democrat. Democrats are liars. Democrats have been liars as long as I can remember, and that’s quite awhile.

Anybody that voted for Obama, or any Democrat for that matter was ill informed, naive, or just plain stupid.
