>Obama now says he would "only" raise taxes on over 250k, yet Obama voted four times to raise taxes on anyone making over 42k. Which one should you believe? His actions or his campaign rhetoric?

Drop it, Steve. Here's the truth:

newsweek.com

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. But the ad shows a woman with two children, and as a single mother, she would not have been affected unless she made more than $62,150. The increase that Obama once supported as part of a Democratic budget bill is not part of his current tax plan anyway.

>Did you send me a check yet? It's your patriotic duty!

Enough of that. It gets us nowhere.
