McContradiction

tnr.com — Great article from the New Republic that rips into McCain for making diametrically opposed policy promises to different audiences. It also provides info on how McCain's tax plan will actually RAISE TAXES on middle income families by taxing their employer provided healthcare benefits. Good read.

  • onyxcoltrane, on 07/09/2008, -1/+1FTA: John McCain's fantastical pledge on Monday to balance the budget by 2013 through massive tax cuts and unidentified budget reductions deserved the bad reviews it received. But the most unfortunate element of his incoherent promise is that it's representative of his policy agenda these days. While the McCain campaign is trying to paint Barack Obama as a flip-flopper, the Arizona Republican is making diametrically opposed policy promises to different audiences at the same time. The contradictions are often in the details, but their obscurity is evidence of the campaign's cynicism.
