What does that record say? It says, loud and clear, that cuts in tax rates do not mean cuts in tax revenues. In all four of these administrations, of both parties, so-called tax cuts for the rich led to increased tax revenues with people earning high incomes paying not only a larger sum total of tax revenues, but even a higher proportion of all tax revenues. And in the last two cases the cuts led to large deficits. Tax cuts are only half the answer. Spending cuts need to go hand-in-hand with them. I notice that Palin didn't talk about that.

Sarah Palin has talked plenty about cutting spending and you know it.
