And here's a short rant for you, ProSense: I am so tired of hearing the "job creators" BS. As Cheney himself said many years ago, the reason for the tax cuts was "to get our people elected." That's a direct quote. He said it on Cspan; perhaps he thought no one was watching. "Job creators" appears to be merely another sound byte that was spewed forth and parroted until it became an integral part of the Republican agenda. Okay, rant is over.
