A new video advertisement released by the Obama campaign says the candidate's promised tax cuts are for citizens making less than $200,000 a year, not the widely reported figure of $250,000. Adding to the confusion, Obama's running mate, Joe Biden, said in an interview yesterday the cuts are for even fewer people, limited to incomes of $150,000 or less. Depending on the source of information, just who will have their taxes raised and who will have them cut under Obama's plan varies. The campaign's homepage, for example, accessed today, reads, "Obama said he wanted to give a tax break to all families making under $250,000 per year, which he said was 95 percent of American workers." Yet in the "Defining Moment" ad released on YouTube last week and viewable below, Obama says the tax cut "for 95 percent of working Americans" is only for those who make less than $200,000 per year.

They just can’t stick to one thing.
It will drop to $50k shortly after election day, if they win.
It’s the old bait and switch method...keep talking Biden.
This needs to go out in a commercial and a press statement of some kind with Joe the Plumber’s words about it being 250,000 one day and then what the next

in case you think somebody missed it...
And to $25K by January.
Liar Obama, people need to wake up from their kool-aid stupor and see who they are really supporting here, a liar and deceiver. Thanks God that us FReepers can see through the smoke and mirrors. These are the people (sheeple) that will follow the antichrist in the end times, the ones that will be deceived-—now I can see how that could really happen-—this is just a dress rehearsal of what’s to come.
If you are below that point they'll give you a tax cut of about $500. If you are above that point they'll leave the tax rates and conditions unchanged from that point to about double that amount.
Folks from the doubling point on up will be taxed into penury, sent to camps, and turned into cheap, untanned leather sent to China to be turned into Gucci purses.
No one in his right mind can possibly vote for Obama.
Elect 'Rats, and you get a tax increase. It's what they do. They will never change. I don't understand why the stupid sheeple can't get that through their stupid heads.
Sad thing is a lot of people have already voted. NOW the news is getting out. I hate the media.
If you take that $150,000 figure and spread that out over the four years of an awful Obama presidency, you will get taxed for making about $102/day. This is a little more than what the average person might make, but it shows how sneaky the numbers are.
I rilly rilly rilly believe he's going to lower taxes when it's to raise money for his budget and his pet pogroms...
Funny how we have to commit to a candidate based on what he says, but he doesn’t have to commit to what he says.
Obama is such a pathological liar, I want to say “Yeah, that’s the ticket” every time he opens his mouth.
Yep, you have the “progroms” correct. That is how these socialists deal with Israel.
Shades of Bill Clinton 1993.
It doesn’t matter what they say during the campaign. Your taxes are going up under the Democrats unless you are on welfare.
