The complaint is that the rich got a big tax cut....

I think you misunderstand the Bush Tax.
The complaint is that the rich got a big tax cut....but now everyone has to pay for some of it through higher other taxes. Especially much higher property taxes.

Anyways, isn't the whole original arguement on state taxes and not federal?
