As if anyone – other than kool-aid drinking Obamaniacs – thought this wouldn’t happen:
President Barack Obama’s treasury secretary said Sunday he cannot rule out higher taxes to help tame an exploding budget deficit, and his chief economic adviser would not dismiss raising them on middle-class Americans as part of a health care overhaul.
As the White House sought to balance campaign (lies) with governing, officials appeared willing to extend unemployment benefits. With former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan saying he is “pretty sure we’ve already seen the bottom” of the recession, Obama aides sought to defend the economic stimulus and calm a jittery public.(Ed.

You see, “the rich” don’t have as much money as liberal hate-mongers want you to think. This is because “the rich” don’t include people like Soros, Gates, Rockefeller and Kerry – “the rich” are actually just upper middle class people who either have some very valuable skill (like being a doctor) or who have built up a business. They might have a net worth in the millions of dollars, but they are not rich in the sense of having fabulous wealth which allows them to eschew work. The rich who do have that sort of wealth are off limits to liberals – mostly because these rich are liberals and tend to donate vast sums of money to trendy, liberal causes.
And so, “the rich” don’t have the bags of swag necessary to fund Obamunism while the real rich can’t be taxed – where do you get the money? Where liberals always get the money, when push comes to shove: From the middle class.
We on our side knew that Obama was either lying through his teeth or was a complete fool when he said in 2008 he wouldn’t raise taxes on the middle class. This is no surprise at all. Its par for the course – it is an example of the way liberals operate: relentlessly dishonest.
