McCain Says No New Taxes |
2008-02-18 |
Republican John McCain says there will be no new taxes during his administration if he is elected president. "No new taxes," the likely GOP presidential nominee said during a taped interview broadcast Sunday. McCain told ABC's "This Week" that under no circumstances would he increase taxes, and added that he could "see an argument, if our economy continues to deteriorate, for lower interest rates, lower tax rates, and certainly decreasing corporate tax rates," as well as giving people the ability to write off depreciation and eliminating the alternative minimum tax. |

#4 How about just raising the taxes already in existence, that keeps his promise. (Sorta) |

#2 I hope he doesn't have to eat his words, ala George Herbert Walker Bush's: ("...Read My Lips...No New Taxes!"), that killed his 2nd run chances after Billy Boy ate him alive because of it. But McCain can get away with it if he only plans to run one term anyway!! |

#1 Unfortunately excessively low interest rates are partly to blame for the economic fix we're in now. |
