A politician going back on his word...
... like Biden?
Broken promise: Biden makes no effort to incentivize states to restore voting rights after felony | June 13, 2024
Biden promised to support a study on reparations, but has not called for one | February 22, 2024
Joe Biden breaks promise to ban new fracking on federal lands | April 22, 2022
=====
... like Obama?
Top 10 Broken Promises
1. Create a foreclosure prevention fund for homeowners
2. Repeal the Bush tax cuts for higher incomes
3. Close the Guantanamo Bay Detention Center
4. Create cap and trade system with interim goals to reduce global warming
5. Sign the Employee Free Choice Act, making it easier for workers to unionize
6. Allow imported prescription drugs
7. Sign the Freedom of Choice Act
8. Create a public option health plan for a new National Health Insurance Exchange
9. Introduce a comprehensive immigration bill in the first year
10. Bring Democrats and Republicans together to pass an agenda
=====
... like Clinton?
Bill Clinton told Americans "it's the economy, stupid" and promised to spend the "peace dividend" here at home. But once in office, he
couldn't resist the siren song of liberal hegemony.
Promises broken:
Middle-class tax cut: promise was modified during the campaign and then ultimately scuttled after the election.
Gas tax: opposed gasoline tax increases. Clinton proposed a broad-based energy tax.
Haitians: withdrew promise to end bush administration's policy of forcibly returning Haitian refugees.
Deficit: Early in the campaign, Clinton had vowed to "present a five-year plan to balance the budget." By the end of the race, he had
retreated to promising to cut the federal budget deficit in half during his first term.
Bosnia: Clinton has taken incremental steps, but none equal to the tone of a July 1992 statement in which he criticized then President Bush
for doing too little and said the crisis demanded 'the greatest possible urgency."
Gays in military: Clinton says he is committed to keeping his pledge of lifting the ban, but has delayed final action until July pending a
Pentagon study and hearings in Congress.
High-speed rail: The administration was expected today to hedge on a campaign promise to link major cities with trains running up to 300
miles per hour, unveiling a plan that reduces federal involvement and places most of the responsibility for construction on individual
states.
