Variables to trigger outputs

Well it seems like I should have a grasp on this by now but I still can't make it work. it is odd because I have 2 outputs one controlled through logic by a thermistor connected to an analog input, and the other controlled through logic by a variable connected to a button.
the temp controlled one works flawlessly, but the variable controlled one, well I can turn it on but I cant seem to turn it off.
the logic is almost identical in both circuits, for the temp one I have

if input9 = 2.35 then trigger output1 on
and
if input9 = 2.40 then trigger output1 off

i can hold the thermistor between my thumb and finger and in seconds the output comes on, then seconds after I release it the output shuts back off

for the variable one I have

if variable1 = 1 then trigger output0 on
and
if variable1 = 2 then trigger output0 off

I can click the button and the the output comes on, but when I click it a second time the output stays on.

I am watching the variable change as it should in the debugger window but the logic doesn't trigger the output back off. I had another then statement that also changed the variable back to "0" and that worked also, I removed it to simplify things, so it is like the logic is working for everything except shutting off the output.
i have tried all priorities up thru absolute, to no avail. all my timers are set to 100 and seem to be working for the rest.
here is my logic ;
Code:
<!-- Begin Logic Declarations --> <all_statements> <if fire_on="logic"> <boolean_operation type="less than or equal to"> <parameter1> <analogue id="Port9" time="0"></analogue> </parameter1> <parameter2> <number>2.35</number> </parameter2> </boolean_operation> <then> <do function="Trigger Output" functionTargetID="Digital Output 0" vote_opinion="On" vote_priority="Low"></do> </then> </if> <if fire_on="logic"> <boolean_operation type="greater than or equal to"> <parameter1> <analogue id="Port9" time="0"></analogue> </parameter1> <parameter2> <number>2.4</number> </parameter2> </boolean_operation> <then> <do function="Trigger Output" functionTargetID="Digital Output 0" vote_opinion="Off" vote_priority="Low"></do> </then> </if> <if fire_on="logic"> <boolean_operation type="equal to"> <parameter1> <variable do="get" name="My Variable1"></variable> </parameter1> <parameter2> <number>1</number> </parameter2> </boolean_operation> <then> <do function="Trigger Output" functionTargetID="Digital Output 1" vote_opinion="On" vote_priority="Low"></do> </then> </if> <if fire_on="logic"> <boolean_operation type="equal to"> <parameter1> <variable do="get" name="My Variable1"></variable> </parameter1> <parameter2> <number>2</number> </parameter2> </boolean_operation> <then> <do function="Trigger Output" functionTargetID="Digital Output 0" vote_opinion="Off" vote_priority="Low"></do> </then> </if> </all_statements> <!-- End Logic Declarations -->
