Obama officials: Taxes may rise to pay health care

Barack Obama constantly repeated that taxes would not rise for the middle class during the Presidential campaign. Well, so much for that.

Promises, promises you can't keep

It seems that some on the Left aren't too keen on Obama appointments and his backtracking on some campaign rhetoric.

Obama Apparently Drops Windfall Profits Tax Proposal

Ronald Bailey over at Reason has reported that Obama has queitly dropped the windfall profits tax idea on his website. If this is true, then there are going to be some really pissed Progressives around the country. I went over to his website and I didn't see anything on windfall profits and I distinctly remember reading something about windfall profit taxes on oil companies on his website during the campaign. If he has dropped this proposal then this would be change we can believe in!
