Democrats to let Bush's tax giveaway to the rich expire. And about time, too:
The House Thursday narrowly passed a $2.9 trillion Democratic budget blueprint predicting a big surplus in five years but relying on the expiration of tax cuts to do so.
And better news:
Democrats opted to put off politically painful decisions on shoring up the finances of Medicare and Social Security.
Bullshit. Only inside the Beltway is it conventional wisdom that Social Security needs to be "shored up." And that because the BCW
is a Republican talking point, designed to let them loot and destroy another government program.
Kudos, Democrats, for not listening to the pundits on this one. The next step is not to listen to them on anything, since they're always wrong about everything.
