In one of the earlier debates, Hunter was one of the only ones to take this question seriously. He said that he opposed new taxes, but without foreknowledge of the future he wouldn’t absolutely say he wouldn’t increase taxes. I don’t believe Thompson has anything to prove in this regard.

And good for John McCain - you signed a meaningless pledge, but when the chips are down he voted against tax cuts.

Exactly. Sorry, but I stopped caring about “tax pledges” after “Read my lips, no new taxes.” Please — look what these folks have actually done in regard to taxes, and make your decision accordingly.

Hunter could say about anything he wanted as he’ll not have to face the issue as President. You see there is one little obstacle that he won’t clear and that’s getting elected.
