Hello, TP! And I thought Mr. Greenspan said just a day or so ago that it is unlikely that
we will have a recession! Do you recall his comments?
Anyway, Jr. wants to get that tax cut through b4 it can be tied to budget!

Excerpt from Washington Post about tax cut
Still, Bush and his aides continue to press the recession argument. On Jan. 25, Bush
press secretary Ari Fleischer said remarks that day by Federal Reserve Chairman
Alan Greenspan justified Bush's economic argument. "President Bush, throughout the
campaign, when he announced his tax cut, said that this tax cut will also, in addition to
other reasons, serve as an insurance policy against any future economic downturns," he said.
"We're very heartened to see that Chairman Greenspan has weighed in
on the importance of cutting taxes to protect the economy."
