Speaking of things that I can't believe, howsabout that new Mitch Daniels television advertisement? You know, the one that makes you think he's going to swing in from stage left in some epic fashion with guns blazing -- that is, if the My Man Mitch message machine actually allowed the Governor to be shown in the ad itself.
My favorite part of the ad -- and this isn't a new claim -- is that the guy has saved the world WITHOUT RAISING TAXES!
Unless, of course, you count his 2005 budget that helped property taxes skyrocket.
...or his increase of the cigarette tax.
...or his advocacy of local income tax increases, (and, of course, the creation of a property tax plan that would require such increases in cities across the state.)
...or his raising of the sales tax by 17%
Yeah, except for those, he has totally not raised taxes. |
