Z, let's be honest here. The vast majority of Bush's tax cuts did indeed go to the "rich," but that's only because the "rich" pay the vast majority of taxes. For the anti-Bush activists to call Bush's statement the "trillion-dollar lie" is stupid, as if Bush merely threw away that much money toward some sort of Enron. The truth is that Bush's tax cuts have helped to restimulate an economy whose bubble burst under Clinton's watch. I'd call that a smart trillion-dollar investment in the future, rather than a "trillion-dollar lie" from those who themselves want to buy votes with that very money. Tenchusatsu

LOL! Just wanna laugh at this: "I cannot stop thinking of the Southern woman – it was particularly effective being delivered in a drawl by an attractive Neiman Marcus type – who had been thinking about the famous 16 words in the State of the Union address and, now, as she was discussing it with friends, purported to be perplexed as she tried to weigh their relative importance. She tilted her head in a question as she weighed two alternatives on her outstretched palms. “Blow job,” she said slowly, pondering the significance as its weight caused her right palm to drop . . . “nuclear war.” On “nuclear war” her left palm dropped some as her right palm came back up. “Lying about a blow job . . .” she repeated, dropping her right palm again . . . “lying about” – well, you get the idea. And for “for nuclear war” she might just as well have substituted “trillions of dollars.”" Good one! <g> ted
