ABC NEWS: AN ARM OF THE DLC?

Attempting to portray Obama as too far to the left, ABC News asks this question: "Is Obama Too Far Left on Taxes?" and quotes a corporatist Democrat from the Democratic Leadership Council.

First of all, the story notes that there's nothing to this question by accurately quoting Obama:

During ABC News' April 16 debate in Philadelphia, asked whether he would take an absolute "read my lips" pledge not to increase taxes of any kind for anyone earning less than $200,000 a year, Obama seemed to agree.

"Well, I not only have pledged not to raise their taxes, I've been the first candidate in this race to specifically say I would cut their taxes," Obama said.

Putting "seemed" is simpy dishonest.
