Ed at Hot Air catches The One backpedaling on his promise of no tax increases for the middle class. Check out his back-to-back vid comparing the campaign promise to the weasel words from Wednesday’s health care press conference:

The one commitment that I’ve been clear about is I don’t want that final one-third of the cost of health care to be completely shouldered on the backs of middle class families who are already struggling in a difficult economy.

And so, if I see a proposal that is primarily funded through taxing middle class families, I’m going to be opposed to that because I think there are better ideas to do it.

Was anyone paying attention? Bueller? Bueller?
