He lowered taxes across the board, created lower investment taxes.

You might recall that those cuts were temporary, he should have never agreed to that nonsense. He should have fired Tokyo Rove and ran as his own man, but he went after the (Nixon created) Hispanic vote.

Making them temporary was the only to get them passed by a simple majority of the Senate. Otherwise the Democrats in the Senate would have filibustered and blocked the tax cuts.

Recall that, at the time, the Senate was split 50-50 and it took Cheney's vote to break the tie. Whereupon Jumpin' Jim Jeffords switched parties and Tom Daschle became Senate Majority Leader.

My, you're awfully negative tonight. That time of the month...???
