A tax cut then only against the expiration levels, but not a tax cut from where we were.<br /><br />It was criticized as stodgy and overly cautious. By the leading lights of that crazy side. So out of nowhere, and apparently without much thought, Romney came up with cutting THAT (same) rate by 20%.<br /><br />The rest now is improvisation, including that it would be revenue neutral. That was added later iirc when the huge deficit increase it implied motivated Romney to molt that snakeskin yet again.<br /><br />So the only point all along is to say and do whatever it takes at the time to win. His 20% off the Bush tax rate cut continuation was solely to win the primaries.<br /><br />XIAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604414.post-41276149296203922262012-10-13T11:37:45.555-04:002012-10-13T11:37:45.555-04:00Would those 'charities' killed include the...Would those 'charities' killed include the Heritage Foundation?
