There has not been a President yet, who got into office by saying …"I'm going to raise your taxes"…they ALL LIE!!!
Get your filthy fuken hands off my money you damn dirty apes.
Of course he is…Always planned to stupid people do not know that when a politician is moving his mouth he is telling a lie ..I guess he can blame it on Bush…I mean this guy will not take any hit and the press is in bed with him.
In the immortal words of George Bush Sr: "Read my lips, No New Taxes"……….
Yeah, we all remember how well that worked for him. Obama has painted himself into a corner.
Yeah, just like he didn't want to be in the business of owning banks and auto companies either I suppose…?
Isn't it funny though. Obama is in quite the juxtaposition here. He is simultaneously devaluing the Green Back, while attempting to spread the wealth at the same time…Then again, in Lefty-Land two wrongs most certainly can make a right…!
Just makes me wish there was going to be another rally on April 15th…!!!
Yes, but as any good proglib will tell you, the rules only apply to conservatives. Don't forget…the ends justifies the means with these lunatics.
But if this guy had focused on REAL job creation, and accepted the historical lessons showing how growth is really stimulated versus lessons showing how it is NOT done, and if his real ambition had not been to simply spend us into oblivion with BS projects, then there may have been no need to raise taxes and every opportunity to LOWER them.
Yes, they lie, but only the stupid ideologues believe them, and only the engaged voters can get them removed from office.
None of this is going to end well.
If only it would keep snowing until November.
Exactly what you might expect from someone who has never run anything but his mouth.
Walter Mondale tried, but we all know what happened. 49 states to 1! ouch!!
He doesn't need to raise taxes he need to lower Government spending !!! Lets start with removing the EPA, AFL-CIO , OBAMA, REID, PELOSI and the rest of there ilk, IRS, The Fed, ADA, and all of the rest of these agency's and senators that take away state rights !!!
If not Zimbabwe will be looking like a better place to live !!!!
On a lighter note, and yet it still applies to this thread, to some degree…Watch this little 2 min. video to brighten your day…!

Just was listening to FOX this morning, and some dingbat was explaining how Barry was putting the Congress through the ringer so he could move to the center in 2012 and get re-elected…
WTF…!!??!?
I've seen clueless…I've seen spin…but that was a Kodak moment of imbecility…
We need to plow these people under just to improve IQ scores, never mind ideology…
And its an expensive car…which we are also still paying for each month…
Would he raise taxes just because we don't love him, adore him, and revere him? You bet your ass he would.
Bottom Line: This incompetent stumble-bum was a serial liar during his campaign and he has remained just that. Affirmative action that blew smoke up his butt for 40-years has created our PC Frankenstein. Results matter, you have to do more than just show-up.
He knew that he is not going to be able to buy all the things he wants with only soaking the top 1% of all wage earners. He just didn't think we all knew it.
Obama is just visiting this planet. He will be sent back home early in 2013.
Who say's Obama's scheme isn't simply to increase the deficit to the point of economic collapse?
Ding ding ding.,.,,,We have a winner! Well said….
You are right on the money, literally. If they want to run the country like a corporation and have the status of "Personhood", then I think that we, the people, as stockholders, need to excersise our rights and perform what they call a "Hostile Takeover".
I wouldn't say he is the BIGGEST liar in POTUS history, Bush is right up there with the war of lies based on lies, WMD indeed.
raising everyone's taxes has been his goal from the start. He clearly stated he want's to redistribute the wealth. What he was never clear on-was who's wealth, and just who are the 'rightful owners'….
As it stands, if you made all the right dicisions in life to get an education and a decent job, you are NOT the righful owners. Jus tbecause you worked for your money-doen't mean you're the rightful owner.
We the people need to revolt against this atrocity.
Hussein wants to confiscate our wealth to waste it while allowing the Chinese to siphon more at an accelerated rate.
It's all about a MARXIST/SATANIC takeover (A BEAST) of America to bring in "Jacob's trouble" for those who know what I'm talking about!
I only wish! This idiot is commander-in-chief don't you know! He may not want to kill is brother Islamic terrorists, but watch what he will do with legal citizens of America!
He said this BEFORE American women voted him in as President of America in numbers unprecedented! At least that is what the Pollsters have said? As I said before, that's my only problem with Sarah Palin, women tend not to vote for other women!
And we are revolting!
This is no surprise. Most of Obama's statements turn out completely opposite . . . it just happens–not his fault. Socking the Middle with taxes for his wild spending will be the undoing of his Personality Presidency.
The Middle will be hit from most sides with new taxation. When Obama violates his vow of "not one dime," his support will desolve into WACKOS ONLY. We won't let Wackos Win.
He has to raise taxes because he's a profligate spender and a socialist bent on redistribution of wealth and fundamentally transforming America. It costs a lot of money to destroy a Nation. That's why he needs our support and help.
In weird way I almost wish he would raise taxes on the middle class. Huh, now just hear me out. In the youtube generation, I can just see all the ads and viral videos with Barry running around the campaign trail emphatically saying he would never, and I repeat NEVER raise taxes. Now we all know he's the most dishonest president ever. No one is even close! He's taken telling lies to a level never seen before. But when he goes back on his word to not raise middle class taxes, all the uniformed ignoramuses will go … WHAT THE … and it will guarantee one term for Barry and a landslide over the next two election cycles. At which time we get tax relief. It may be a price worth paying. Think about it.
BTW – I’m continually amazed at how I’ll prepared Barry is. What a dolt.
Yeah, it's too bad we don't actually have a Conservative TV network. Perhaps AB will some day be able to undertake such a venture. Here's hoping=!
Well, isn't this just what is brother Islamic Terrorists are trying to do too?

I am going to owe 5,000 this year and got back 1,300 last year. Now tell me that this fucken asshole didn't lie. The government is completely and totally out of control. They think that they have every right to put their hands into your pockets, bank accounts, land, whatever they want and it's all of them! Republicans Democrats what is the difference? They all need to go straight to jail and then to hell. We need to replace every single fucken one of these money grubbing tax and spend fucks! It was the people for the people not all of us paying for their boonedoggles and that is what they are on from the time they get elected until the day we throw them the fuck out! I am an independent TEA PARTY person, it's time we take back our money and our country before all these cheese eating wine sippin liberals destroy us all. Them mother-fuckers all need to move to Cuba if they want social utopia or at least thats what they think it is! Fuckem all!
