Obama Disses Base Again

Obama once again gives his base the finger with both hands:

CHICAGO/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President-elect Barack Obama is not planning to implement a windfall profit tax on oil companies because prices have dropped below $80 a barrel, an aide said on Tuesday...

Obama, who signaled early in his campaign for the White House that he would take an active approach to oil markets as president, had planned to use the revenue from a windfall profits tax to fund a tax rebate for low- and middle-income families struggling with high energy prices.

For crying out loud, the way oil has fallen, he's going to be bailing them out soon.

So Obama once again plays Lucy to Charlie Brown and pulls the football out again. As expected, they aren't handling it so well.

Obama seems to be saying what all libs and Dems say once they've been elected: "Thanks for the money and your vote now screw you...but give me more and vote for me in four years". Suck on that lefties.
