my recollection of the “read my lip” happening was that the Democrats made a deal that they would cut spending if Bush would sign tax legislation. It was to be by a certain ratio, something like $3 in cuts to $1 in taxes. I believe Ted Kennedy was in on the deal. Bush, wanting to cut spending agreed. They immediately sent a bill for taxes to the WH, Bush signed, Then the Democrats reneged on the deal and the rest is history.

The moral of the stories is never trust a Democrat. The are deceivers of the first order.

Clinton: “Look George, ya still owe me and my guys for those 2750 Keys that, ah, somehow ‘disappeared’ out of Mena. We had a deal old bud, how ya’ll gonna fix this? Bush: “Bill, what if I say something so boneheaded dumb that it will almost guarantee my re-election defeat? Clinton: “Well, that was a LOT of blow George, it had better be good but yeah, okay, you screw the pooch and we are even. I’ll let Oliver North what is what also okay?” Bush: Fine Bill, fine”.

Petty bastards, the real profile-in-courage award went to JFK long ago for reducing taxes to stimulate the economy. The rats never got over that one. Stung like hell and they’ve been trying ever since to return the favor.

Exactly how I see it. The American equivalent of Bildergbergers...

Good point. You should write this gin soaked Kennedy foundation a letter suggesting that.
