Title: "Slippery Slope 2.0"
OBAMA:If you make $250,000 dollars a year or less, we will not raise your
taxes. We will cut your taxes.
If you make less than $200,000 dollars a year, you'll get a tax cut.
BIDEN:It should go to middle-class people... People making under $150,000
dollars a year.
RICHARDSON: What Obama wants to do is he is basically looking at $120,000
dollars and under, among those that are in the middle class, and there is a
tax cut for them.
VO:As time winds down to November 4th, so does Barack Obama's definition of
"rich."
In July, Obama said if you make less than $250,000 dollars per year you get a
tax cut.
Ten days before Election Day, he changes it to $200,000.
Joe Biden changes the threshold to $150,000.
And now?
RICHARDSON:He is basically looking at $120,000 dollars and under.
VO: If you're wondering where you fit in, the answer is ... Who knows?
WURZELBACHER:You know, $250,000 dollars now - what if he decides well, you
know, $150,000 dollars, you're pretty rich too, let's go ahead and lower it
again? You know, it's a slippery slope... When's it going to stop?
VO:Yesterday, he promised you a tax cut. Today, he promises he'll change
again. And tomorrow, he'll "spread the wealth" to those that don't even pay
taxes at all.
Change. Change. Change.
Yeah, that's Barack.
