And neither will those with the last name Clinton, Pelosi, Kennedy, or Gore.

Because anything "good" he's done is at the expense of others. That is to say, he has done nothing right.

Thats your opinion. EVERYONE got a tax cut, which was a good thing for anyone that likes to get their own money back. How am I blind when I say that I am not rich and I got a tax cut, and that was a good thing for me?

I'd say keeping Greenspan and then appointing Bernanke once Greenspan retired.

You must be one of the top 1% in earnings, or you'd know how wrong that answer is. :thumbsdown:

I'm a tax CPA. You're wrong. I know you drink heavily of Dem koolaid, but when those cuts you refer to as for the rich expire you'll find out just how much.

You'll see all the very non-rich scream when the payroll withhold tables are adjusted. It hits home when the paycheck shrinks.

Tax Cuts, although they were offset by extreme spending from Congress. So eventually our taxes will be raised due to the last 6 years. Sort of muddies the usefulness of it. :frown:

He didn't fire government employees when he took office. Gore was going to do it.

He has a very diverse cabinet.

Don't know much about it, but according to my family Bush has helped them with the home. Someone explain more?

Yep, too bad neither party believes in cutting spending.

QFT! :thumbsup:

Too many people are stuck in the here and now and will b*tch when the inevitable tax increases come because they don't understand the concept of simple money management.

No, that is the exact reason why we will bitch when the inevitable tax increases come, because we do understand the concept of money management. My budget is pretty simple, if I'm spending more than I'm making, I cut back on my spending, I don't go to my boss and demand a raise. Seems pretty simple to me, why can't our elected officials do the same?

Agreed. But they did it via standard US political weaseling & lying. bush did it through mass murder and the destruction of an entire country.

How do you propose the government is going to make up for the exorbitant increase of spending under Bush? He sure didn't cut back on spending when his revenue went down. There's only one way to make up for the blank check he gave himself, and that's to INEVITABLY increase taxes.

Though that seems to be how the Republicans get elected constantly, so I wouldn't put it past you to not understand this concept.

Why is it that you are unable to understand the concept of cutting spending? The Republicans spending is out of control and one of the main reasons why I am no longer a Republican. Unfortunately, Democrats aren't going to do much better.

One problem is those "cuts" are unfunded, meaning they are really loans, loans you will have to repay with interest. Another is that those "cuts" went disproportionately to the wealthy, at the expense of the middle and upper-middle class. Yes, you're paying less in taxes for now. The very wealthy, however, are paying much, much less (on the average, of course).

The weathly pay much much more in taxes than I do, so I would expect them to get more back in a tax cut.

I'm able to understand it perfectly. I have yet to see it in action though, Republican or Democrat.

Edit: The thing is, the Dems are going to have to increase taxes in order to pay back everything Bush and his cronies have spent on their credit card.

What more can I say, he has set the perfect example for what 'not' to do as president.

Read it again. You missed one critical word: "disproportionately".

And they weren't really tax "cuts" anyway, at least not for the folks in the upper-middle class who will shoulder most of the load of repaying the loans.
