Another one who's sore that Tancredo isn't playing by Queensbury rules.

That's good - did you say that when Clintoon got caught lying, and then give a little golf clap and note how well played it was? Oh, wait, this is Tommy Tancredo, who says things we like to hear about immigration, so we need to give him a pass on minor little details like abiding by your pledges.

LOL - if I had one wish, it'd be to see a videotape of Tancredo kicking puppies show up. Not because I don't like puppies, or wish bad things on Tommy, but strictly because it'd be enormously funny to come back here and watch you rationalize that away too, explaining how we can't really hold it against him and so forth.

I think it was generally understood that his promise was made in the context of others making similar promises. When everyone else around him starts breaking those promises themselves, that changes the context immensely. If you made the promise thinking your enemies would do the same, and they pull the rug out from under you saying "Sucker!", what do you owe them at that point?
