Obama Tax Hike Exemption Card

The nice folks over at Americans for Tax Reform have produced for us the Obama Tax Hike Card.  I thought all of us out in politico land would want to get one before they run out. (jk obviously they can’t run out.)

It is a pretty fun gag they have come up with and they hammer the point home with some key Obama quotes:

“I can make a firm pledge. Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes.”

–Candidate Barack Obama, Sept. 12, 2008

“If your family earns less than $250,000 a year, you will not see your taxes increased a single dime. I repeat: not one single dime.”

–President Barack Obama, Feb. 24, 2009

“The statement didn’t come with caveats.”

–Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs, April 15, 2009, when asked if the pledge applies to healthcare
