Progressives (don’t you hate that affectation?) are pissed that President Obama caved in on the Bush tax cuts.
So the Progressive Change Campaign Committee just put out a new TV commercial. It makes it pretty clear that President Obama broke his campaign promise about tax rates. And it does it by using his own words against him.
Don’t get us wrong – we’re glad the tax rates got extended, but we love watching The World’s Greatest Orator (yeah, he was still held that title when this speech was made) claiming that the Bush tax cuts “offend my conscience.”
