The Republicans want to cut taxes for millionaires and billionaires again!!

They did it in 2001 and 2003 and drove up our debt about $4 trillion dollars. They created no private sector jobs! Now they want to do it again.

C'mon Democrats. Don't let them make these taxcuts for the millionaires permanent. It will do untold damage to our nation. We will sacrifice a lot just so the wealthy can have more. They are driving us toward a third world nation.

We beg you. Wake up. Please. Our country cannot afford ten more years of the Bush taxcuts. Don't betray the people or your country. Stand up. Fight. Why is that so hard?

1. Some of Democrats want it, too.
Blanche Lincoln! Rep. Mike Ross!

2. They're the only ones who will admit it

Politicians do not pay taxes on their riches so they really don't care one way or the other. All of them, yes all of them, the D's & the R's let special interest groups make charitable contributions in their name so that they can claim them as deductions on their own personal taxes. A legal bribe so to speak.
