This is not the time to have tax-cuts for anybody. In several polls people have said that it is better to pay down the debts rather than have tax-cuts now (and later, tell our children that it's their problem).

Bush's tax cuts favor the WEALTHY big-time. Are you kidding? The middle-class get between $110 and $1000 depending on if they have kids. The rich get it all, plus dividend tax cuts, capital gains tax cuts and estate tax cuts. That is worth HUGE mounts of free chasola for the very wealthy. Study the facts before you say something like that again. Also, the Bush tax cuts are shifting the overall tax burden from the rich to the middleclass, and he's working on cutting their SS and Medicare benefits, if he can get away with it. Bush is the enemy of the middleclass. The only reason he hasn't done even worse things is that he's trying to get re-elected.
