I hope this will not be another "dead end"?

WASHINGTON -- Senate Republicans pushed toward passage of their sweeping agenda to cut taxes for inheritances, retirement savings, telecommunications and businesses that create jobs in poor areas.

The Senate's main event was a lengthy debate over the wisdom of repealing estate taxes, but Senate Republicans won concessions Thursday to consider in effect their entire tax-cut agenda during a two-day marathon ending Friday.

By Friday night, Republicans will return "surplus money" to voters and "some sanity to the tax code," said John Czwartacki, spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott (R., Miss.). Mr. Czwartacki predicted every GOP tax-cut bill would pass with little Democratic support.


The Senate is expected to cap the bitterly partisan debate by approving a 10-year, $250 billion tax-relief package for married couples.

Clinton (the liar) told a cheering NAACP crowd Thursday that Republicans want to "spend $100 billion on repealing the estate tax and give 50% of it to the top one-tenth of 1% of the population, and not spend money on drugs for our seniors."
