Thank God! And thank John Linder! It's about time. We've waited, we've cussed, we've fumed, we've signed petitions, we've written letters, we've prayed - and finally the Congressional leadership is waking up to something a lot of us have known for more than a decade!

This is a wonderful opportunity, and I hope the Republicans don't squander it.

The game is called keep pushing, and don't let up on the whip or they will.

23% sounds way too high. I think the national sales tax rate should fall into the 6 to 7% area. Also safeguards need to be built in to, have say, a super majority to even think of raising this tax.
