>>>A small experiment in democracy ensued outside.
>>>Two smaller kids and one really big kid held a vote and told me that I was going to share the wealth.
>>>Precisely those words "Share the wealth"

>>>I've got a better story. Did you hear the one about the country that held a vote and elected a man who said (30+ times), "If you like your health plan, you can keep it"...And then a year later, a few million lost their plans?

>>Is that the same country who elected a man who said "Read my lips. No new taxes " ?

>I wasn't a Bush fan (neither of him or his son). The story is a bit complicated, as both the Senate and House were controlled by Dems, and Bush gave in on a compromise deal regarding the budget. I'm not defending Bush - the situation affected his trustworthiness, and probably contributed to him losing to Clinton in 1992.

>But between the Bush broken promise, and the Obama broken promise, Obama's is far, far more dishonest. Bush may (or may not) have intended to keep that promise but caved on a compromise - whereas there's already proof that Obama was lying through his teeth. No comparison.

Kevin if you vote for politicians based on what they say I have a used bridge I could sell you. Its parked over the Thames at the moment but I promise its mine to sell. Vote for the whole package not the media spin.
