Columnist: Obama Eats Crow

From Jason Mattera at Human Events on Barack Obama's "Read My Lips" moment:
Make no mistake about it, Obama's announcement that he'll keep all tax rates at the current levels is a huge victory for the GOP. Here's a man who banked his presidential run on rescinding "tax cuts for the rich." Far from a throwaway line on the campaign trail, it was Barack's central talking point.

For him, spiking taxes on the "wealthy" wasn't just political positioning. It was deeply ideological, part of his core philosophy. Here's a man who has lamented that the Supreme Court never codified "redistribution of wealth" in our legal code, and the same dude who made one Ohio plumber a household name by telling him how advantageous it was to "spread the wealth around."

Barack, the most anti-capitalist President in modern time, was humiliated, both personally and publically, by being forced into backing a two-year extension of the tax cuts he loathes. Obama ate a capitalist sandwich, and you know he hated every bite of it.
