Senator Kerry, would you be willing to look directly into the camera and, using simple and unequivocal language, give the American people your solemn pledge not to sign any legislation that will increase the tax burden on families earning less than $200,000 a year during your first term?
KERRY: Absolutely. Yes. Right into the camera. Yes. I am not going to raise taxes.
....snip
Now, for the people earning more than $200,000 a year, you're going to see a rollback to the level we were at with Bill Clinton, when people made a lot of money.
And looking around here, at this group here, I suspect there are only three people here who are going to be affected: the president, me, and, Charlie, I'm sorry, you too.
- That is what's called a defining moment.

1. The problem is that * continued with his misleading afterwards |

w/o any sort of correction. How can a candidate look into the camera and swear something to the american people and have Bush turn around 15 seconds later and say that he's lying. Who would believe this fool, It's beyond me....
