McCain just flip-flopped on his promise of no new taxes. I'm not surprised, as I don't see any way around higher taxes for at least some people. When you have a 9 trillion dollar debt, you have to raise income somehow, or let the interest payments build and grind you into dust. The surprising thing is that he ever promised no new taxes in the first place. It was an untenable position to take. Paying off debts takes income. Paying off historically monumental debts takes *lots* of income. It's gotta come from somewhere. Not being rich, I prefer that it come from rich folks, and it seems Obama agrees, and even McCain is coming around to that position now. He's just a little slow figuring stuff out, McCain is.
Not being Baptist, I prefer that it come from Baptist folks.......
Same difference, no?
