Ladies and gentlemen, what you are seeing in the Senate right now is McConnell

[DENVERPOPS]

67. I actually think

it dates much further back than that. The conservatives backed the LARGEST TAX increase ever during Reagan's years.
It not only cut the higher end taxpayers taxes, it compounded several times over the taxes on the Middle Class.

It not only cut the tax rates substantially for the Rich, he doubled the Payroll Deduction for SSI on the pretense he was solving the SSI problem forever. Then he took a machete to the deductions that the middle class had known for years, while keeping the deductions in place for the wealthy. Then he took away many regulations that helped the middle class, giving the Corporations and Gov't windfall profits and directly screwing the middle class out of even more of their money........etc etc etc.

Everyone needs to recognize something. When they talk about the Reagan years, Reagan was already suffering from Dementia/Alzheimers when he took office. He was merely a front man, just like "W" for the cabal of Cheney/Rumsfeld/Pearle/Wolfowitz/ et al.........That same crew brought you 8 years of Reagan, 4 years of papa Bush, and 8 years of "W".........
