President Bush charged Thursday that Democratic rival John Kerry's approach to recent tax cuts would be to "take them away" and use the money to expand the federal government.

"I have a better idea: To keep this economy growing and to create jobs, the tax cuts must be permanent," Bush said at a fund-raiser where he banked more than $700,000 for a re-election war chest that already dwarfs Kerry's.

Bush says Kerry would take away tax cut

That's funny, Kerry says he would take away the tax cut too. I half expect Kerry to now come out for tax cuts!

Bush says Kerry wants to take away the tax cut? Am I missing something? I thought KERRY said that Kerry wanted to take away the tax cut.

In fact, the Massachusetts senator and Bush both would keep in place key tax cuts that are due to expire at the end of the year: an increase in the child tax credit; tax reductions for some married couples who would pay more than they would as individuals; and an expansion of the bottom 10 percent tax bracket.

Virtually the only area where they disagree on this issue is on Kerry's call to end tax cuts Bush signed into law for those earning more than $200,000 a year.

OK..maybe I was in a coma in 1996..but did big media help Senator Dole against clinton like this author did???? some help please..
