"Pigdog insists that the rate is fixed at 23% after 2007. Is that what the bill says? If you can honestly read that and agree with pigdog that the bill fixes the rate at 23% after 2007, I will apologize to pigdog."
Since I've never made the statement you attribute to me your offer to "apologize" is mere foolishness. It would be nice if you'd stop trying to claim I've said things I never have - putting words of your own devising in my mouth is something I'm not a big fan of.
You could also read the 3 posts where I explained what would happen under the terms of the bill as written - as you obviously never have - rather than continuing to blow off such nonsense and hyperbole . CHIEF negotiator was right apparently.
