So when do the democrats demand repeal of the 1%'s tax cuts?
It's not quite time, but America is turning against republicans and the rich fucking bastards who're sitting back sipping champagne while the country burns. They're tax breaks didn't do shit for the economy, and now we simply need the money back that they never should have been given in the first place. They'll try to make a Walter Mondale moment out of it, so we'd need to be TOTALLY on-message first, hammering home that they're selfish liars. But it is going to have to be addressed.

3. Um, been there, done that, got the t-shirt
Kerry harped on that enough times. I'm not sure who else. Well, there was Clinton at the Dem Convention. That was a big part of his speech.

4. Actually, it was part of Kerry's platform - I believe
especially when he pointed out that he was one of the recipients of a tax cut he never asked for . . . but got, thanks to Bush.

That should have pissed off the cons right there - the Kennedy, Kerry tax relief . . .

5. I'm the top 50%
I'm barely in the top 50% according to the data yet somehow I managed to get a little (and I do mean little!) tax cut in that deal. I can barely make ends meet and need every cent I can get so I'd rather that little bit not get taken away so it can fund more war. I can spend my money better than that bushit can.
