>>Has any Democrat (or Republican for that matter) had the guts to call for the withdrawal of these subsidies rather than some sort of windfall tax?<<

Slacker -

The bill that was stopped by the Republicans just this past week did both. But I'm with you. I'd like to see a bill that just takes back the tax breaks. I don't know whether anyone has suggested that or not. For some reason, congress members always seem to want to throw all kinds of crap into one bill. Why not keep things simple?
