Any help on taking this piece apart would be appreciated ...

For ammo, try these O'Neill threads.

Thanks - this may take awhile ... ;-)

The guy O'neill was a poor choice by Bush right from the beginning. O'Neill was against the tax cuts. Look, you are not a real Republican unless you support tax cuts. Because the income tax is progressive and not fully indexed, taxes go up every year unless you have a tax cut. The Democrat politicians know this and love it because they like high taxes. The Dem voters don't have a clue. O'Neill is in that category. How could you argue against cutting taxes when the economy needs a boost? O'Neill was an embarassment.
