I just watched an anti-Obama ad here in FL where they said Obama and Nancy Pelosi

and the Democrats would add $4,000 to the middle class in taxes and it was at American.com

I'm at American.com and can't find anything there that says anything of the sort. They have a long article that says Romney won't increase taxes on the middle class, (sort of because they say that Obama is not taking the great increase in the economy......I think) Here is the link.

Anyway it was the most blatant lie I have heard in a TV ad so far from the Romney camp. I guess he thinks he got away with them at the debates all bets are off for his campaign.

you go there and its not there. But they make it sound official and they add the "non-partisan" part too. It really pisses me off. I hope the Obama campaign gets on this one.
