Don't for an instant be shy about using the word sensitive
President Bush said Friday that he was "getting the job done" on the economy and more. Not so, said Sen. John Kerry, criticizing administration tax cuts as insensitive to the middle class as he ended a 22-state tour.

"Don't for an instant be shy about using the word sensitive," the Democratic presidential nominee told one questioner, referring to criticism a day earlier from Vice President Dick Cheney.

"If you don't speak you mind, you shouldn't be the president of the United States. And I intend to speak my mind," Kerry said.

Kerry told his rally that he would roll back the Bush-era tax cuts on the top 2 percent of all income earners and use the money for health care, education and other programs.

"John Edwards and I know that we can restore fundamental fairness to America," Kerry said.
