RE:"OT: It's not exactly unusual for Democrats in an election year to run scared from Republican fearmongering. Plus they got lame duck Clinton to cover for them. Raising the exemption is one thing, but that's not exactly what the Congress passed, is it?"

I think the republicans were actually looking forward to Clintons veto with the hope that the masses are fed up with being taxed to death.
I think you are right. The bill abolished the tax...fazed in in 10 years. The Dems had a bill that just raised the exemption...but it wasn't enough and still very controlling.
