One of the NY 23rds local papers reports that democrat Bill Owens has indicated his intention to break campaign promises on 4 issues. So they are reporting he has broken 4 key promises in his first 24 hours in office. Where Owens promised not to vote for the public option, not to cut Medicare, not to raise taxes to pay for health care and not to pay for abortions and illegals to have health care, he's not prepared to do all of those things.
Hello NY!!!!!! Big surprise!!!!! Your people elected a crooked dem and then are surprised to find out he's a lying liar?
Here's The Gouveneur Times concluding final 2 paragraphs from their article:
"The mixed-up mess that was the 23rd Congressional District Special Election was a close race between Democrat Bill Owens and Conservative Doug Hoffman. Many feel that it was unlikely Mr. Owens would have won those crucial few thousand votes if the voting public was aware of his intent with regard to the Health Care bill. The majority of residents in this district do not support the Health Reform bill as it is now written and many feel like they've become victims of a fraud perpetrated by their chosen candidate.
Breaking campaign promises is not unusual for politicians... it's a cliche. This is almost certainly a record though. Mr. Owens broke no less than 4 promises in his first 24 hours in office."
