Read My Lips

George H.W. Bush, back in the campaign of 1988 uttered those now infamous words: "Read my lips, no new taxes".  Of course, as most people over the age of 35 remember - he did just what he said he wouldn’t do - he raised taxes.  The results can be debated - but an objective view would likely produce the conclusion that the tax increase damaged what was already a fragile economy.

 

Today, we stand at a crossroads.   We can vote for someone who has consistently said that he will raise taxes - Barack Obama.  Or we can choose the candidate who favors - based upon his words at last night’s debate - keeping taxes right where they are.
