Obamaspeak Obama's doublethink, doubletalk, from reason.tv:
I was just reading on drudge that middle class is going to get hit with back-door (pun intended) tax increases next year too.
Can't wait to hear the newspeak once that goes live...

But Obama won't have imposed those tax increases. Those are being imposed by the expiration of Bush's 2001 tax cuts. So, again, it's Bush's fault.

Seriously, I thought it was going to be much sharper. It's just rather desperately juxtaposed and very tightly trimmed soundbites.
(I hate it when people invoke Orwell sloppily!)
