Daschle blamed the federal government's projected return to deficits on the $1.3 trillion tax cut backed by Bush and congressional Republicans. And he disagreed with those who would say that the government's fiscal troubles are the result of the September 11 terrorist attacks and the ensuing war in Afghanistan. While the terrorist attacks have been devastating to some industries, he said, the attacks and the war are not the only reasons the surplus is nearly gone. "They're not even the biggest reasons. The biggest reason is the tax cut." "Unfortunately, last spring, Republicans chose exactly the wrong solution. They made a huge tax cut their No. 1 priority -- ahead of everything else -- and discarded the framework of fiscal responsibility," he said. "Not only did the tax cut fail to prevent a recession, as its supporters said it would, it probably made the recession worse," he said. -------------whole story--http://www.cnn.com/2002/ALLPOLITICS/01/04/daschle.economy/index.html---- But ya know Tom Daschle couldn't possibly think the sluggish economy has anything to do with the recession. Anybody that re-elects Daschle this fall in South Dakota should be forced to feed Larry Flint with a their tongue. ----------
