propaganda in tax cuts expiring?

Do you find it hypocritical that the same news agencies that reported the Bush era tax cuts as a "Tax cut for the rich" are now, with the tax cuts expiring, reporting them as Tax cuts on nearly every American?

    Yeah... only an imbecile would think that not cutting the taxes for the rich would somehow make their middle class taxes less.

    It's all about how much the government WANTS in cash... and they raise that by taxes.

    Even pipe tobacco has tripled but they would never claim to raise taxes, but certainly would call pipe smokers rich.

    The Democrats were dishonest before and dishonest now. They are trying to make middle class America think that if they tax the RICH more, somehow they will tax the middle class less.

    WHAT YOU DON'T SEE THE DEMOCRATS CLAIM, is that they will cut the middle class taxes even more since they will be getting more taxes from the rich.

    The greedy bastard just want the money... they don't want to share it with the middle class... take from the rich for their own pet projects instead of passing it along to the middle class.
