All They Do Is Lie To Us

THEN: "During his presidential campaign, Obama repeatedly pledged 'you will not see any of your taxes increase one single dime.'"

NOW: "'There is a lot that can happen over time,' [National Economic Council Director Lawrence] Summers said, adding that the administration believes 'it is never a good idea to absolutely rule things out, no matter what.'"

How can we make informed decisions when our representatives lie to us? How can we even begin to do business or interact with someone who changes what they say whenever it suits their purpose?

Lies, lies, lies.

Where is the Ten Year Plan?

Orb's. The day HIS "Not even a dime" statement turns into a lie, HE loses ALL of my support. Actually he is teetering on it now.

I'm ragging on all politicians. And I know it's useless. Those who serve the people should be held to the highest standards, not the lowest. We just assume our leaders lie to us. How sad.

Take all the perks away from them and see how fast they do their job.

I just read the Dickert interview on the Racine Post: http://news.racinepost.com/2009/08/dickert-10-year-plan-will-start-to-be.html. First thing discussed is the 10 Year Plan. Talk about the power of the net!
