I would like to hear the GOP articulate why the tax portions of the stimulus bill WON'T help us.

1. I'm sure they are disappointed that the majority
of the tax cuts aren't targeted towards their sponsors: Corporations and the wealthy, you know, the oppressed class :rofl:

2. "...articulate..."
That would be an example of the "Burke's Comic Correction" our new Dr. Boobooday, refers to in her Thesis.

3. That's what I was saying a week ago
A week ago when the GOP was insisting that less then a third of the bill is actual 'stimulus' (when tax cuts are 40% of it) I was saying "you know what that means, tax cuts don't stimulate the economy according to the GOP, tax cuts are pork spending".
