Strange Magic
"Almost all of Mr. Bush's tax cuts are now set to expire at the end of 2010.
Democrats have said they want to extend most of them, but they have adopted tough "pay-as-you-go" requirements that will require Congress to pay for new spending and additional tax cuts with tax increases or savings in other areas.
"After years of reckless budgets and skyrocketing debt, Democrats have brought fiscal sanity back to Washington," said Representative Rahm Emanuel of Illinois, chairman of the House Democratic Caucus. The plan, Mr. Emanuel said, "funds the right priorities for our country and puts middle-class families first."
Republicans said the Democratic budget would lead to huge tax increases without doing anything to slow the explosive growth of entitlement programs like Medicare and Medicaid.
"No matter how they spin it, no matter how they dodge it, they will raise taxes," said Representative Paul D. Ryan, Republican of Wisconsin, in debate on the House floor. "Numbers don't lie. This budget, this Democratic budget, gives us the largest tax increase in American history."
More proof that Republicans in general, and Paul Ryan in specific, are teh stupid.
Let's get this straight:
They passed budgets that included tax cuts with sunset provisions. If those tax cuts sunset the Democrats will be raising taxes. While the figures don't lie the liars obviously figure: Having enacted a bill that had sunset provisions, the GOP is responsible for the sunset of those provisions.
Ignorant.
It burns.
(Not to let the Democrats, esoecially "moderates" like Emanuel off the hook on this: The tax cuts should be allowed to expire and none of them should be re-enacted without a comprehensive going over of the budget, to include a serious effort at a national health care program.)
Once more, the GOoPers are playing the rest of us for suckers, because that's how they roll.
