I have a feeling that Obammer’s “read my lips” promise won’t be a big deal to the Democrats Progressives.

There...fixed it.

If his idea of “middle class” is similar to his idea of “rich,” we’re all screwed.

I assume this is in addition to letting the Bush across the board tax cuts expire.

This is one sacrifice that would be worth it in the end. No Healthcare debacle, no cap n’ tax nonsense, and the election of ANY Republican in 2012 if he chooses to do this.

I am a little surprised he would come out and say it. It seems more his style to institute a tax and watch as the media doesn’t call him on it.

That's what happens when your teleprompter is in the shop. Obama is trying desperately to not be seen with the thing, after the ribbing he took from Palin. He's probably suffering severe withdrawal symptoms.

What a surprise...I seem to remember Clinton doing the same thing and then whining about how hard he worked to not do it but just couldn’t find a way! My only hope is that it’s a “read my lips” moment for Obama.

Per Fox, Obama may be about to institute national sales tax to pay for his programs.

The minute that happens, I'm going to start using cash and barter wherever possible.

Americans are suckers for falling for class envy. A tax on the rich is just a way to open the door for more taxes for everybody

We can party like it's 1789!

Maybe even go back a few years earlier than that....this could be the second "shot heard around the world"
