Romney admits Obama didnt raise taxes - 9/27/2012 5:00:19 PM

The Romney campaign released a statement already on it. Via ABC News:

“President Obama has raised taxes on millions of middle-class Americans during his first term in office,” spokeswoman Amanda Henneberg said in a statement. “Governor Romney was clearly communicating about an additional tax increase President Obama is proposing on American small businesses that will jeopardize over 700,000 jobs. Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan will stop the President’s tax increases, create 12 million new jobs, and turn our economy around.”

The GOP has lied to its base for years; we all know it, but it’s nice to have it on the record.

Status: offline 		Was it a good thing Obama government chose to borrow insane never seen in World history amounts of money? At least some economists proposed more taxing for upper class arguing it does not have a negative effect on GDP. Also, Obama care program increases business expenses. Obama economic model needs massive tax increases in order to be stable. Otherwise, it will lead to inevitable collapse. Unless Obama proposes some viable alternative he should honestly tell the taxes will go up. The candidates (both) use propaganda codewords (tax increase) in order to manipulate people, at the same time avoiding meaningful analysis. They know very well what is really going on.

Never in all of world history? Wow. Mind sharing your source for that sweeping claim?

Take it in context....because the Republicans refused to vote for it.

That's why your taxes haven't risen.

Perhaps, but, we spend more time trying to spin gaffs than we do finding the truth, that scares the shit out of me.

I'm worried about this country and the extreme of both sides seem more intent on playing a game of charades. If what I fear is on the horizon, neither of these gents may do; we'll need another Lincoln. I literally watch brothers argue the spin of modern political rhetoric. I and my hero Benjamin are deeply saddened.

The man clearly misspoke. Something he has done all along. And that worries me even more.

Is this opinion inspired because he seldom speaks without a teleprompter?

Status: offline 		He has been using them since april Tazzy, Hannity and him had a nice convo over it

"It does make some sense though" to use a teleprompter, Romney tells Hannity. "I do understand."

He adds: "It keeps you from saying something you don't mean, you get the message out precisely the way you want to get the message out." Romney says he has used a TelePrompter "maybe five times" in the campaign. Romney in recent months has tended to use a teleprompter for most major speeches

Talking of absolute numbers give me an example of annual 1.3 trillion dollar deficit in the past.

I am aware of the % GDP argument. GDP as calculated is a bogus number, among other things it includes the government spending.
