>>> Why not use the entire article by factcheck.org?

Because I wasn't looking at it I was looking at another article that cited it.

The simple truth is that Obama supported raising taxes on families consisting of one person, of which there are millions, making 42K.

Saying it any other way is a lie. A single person making 42K would have their taxes raised if it were up to Obama. The claim, by McCain, is absolutely true.

"* A TV spot claims Obama once voted for a tax increase "on people making just $42,000 a year." That's true for a single taxpayer, who would have seen a tax increase of $15 for the year – if the measure had been enacted. "

It was not a lie or even a misrepresentation. According to your own post. Glad we cleared that up.
