I hope that people on this board remember the smirking and sneering of Sen. Majority Leader George Mitchell (D-Commieland) on television as he was quizzed about another lie and broken promise made to the President?
And as far as Rep. Rostenkowski ("Don't be too tough on Rosti" - David Broder) he was a common thief and crook.......as well as head of the Ways and Means Committee.
Lies lies and damn lies from the Left as always.

Back in 1993 or 1994 there was an editorial in the WSJ (likely written by Bartley) called "Hillary Rodham Laffer?"
It states that she had the Rose Law Firm pay her a large chunk of her 1993 income in December of 1992 (or was it 94 and 93?) to ensure that less of HER money would be subject to her husband's tax increase of the following year.
She single-handedly proved the Laffer Curve and supply-side.
Economic ignorants like the writer of this editorial want to cling to the "static analysis" of the effect of tax cuts. But it requires only common sense -- NOT a degree in economics -- to figure out that changes in tax policy/law will change the financial behavior of those subject to said tax policies and laws.
It also helps if you don't have so much of your ego invested in APPEARING to care about the downtrodden that you are actually willing to HURT said downtrodden in order to maintain that APPEARANCE...
