3. Tax cuts have worked so well...why change? |
|
8 years of Bush tax cuts have brought us a robust economy, low unemployment, growing income for America's families, a budget surplus, freedom, peace, and prosperity around the world.
Why mess with a good thing? MORE TAX CUTS, PLEASE!
:sarcasm:

7. What word are you looking for? |
|
"Ridiculous" comes to mind.
How about "bullshit?"
"Stupid" and "Con" come to mind, too.
Hope this helps.

9. Wow, in comparison, they sure do make Obama and his economic team appear |

like downright populists, the defenders of the working class.
But then again, the Republicans attacking Clinton made the Democrats rush to his defense and Clinton was able to pass media consolidation, pass NAFTA, give China favorite nation status, deregulate the financial industry and all kinds of other good stuff that has helped destroy the working class in American and further the divide between the rich and the poor.
So to give the Republicans their due, they certainly do play a important role in the overall scheme of things. Their timing couldn't be any better. Obama's economic team really couldn't ask for better "allies."
