From August 1st http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1182821/posts In his speech at the convention, Bill Clinton delighted the crowd by complaining about the unnecessary tax cut he had received. At a breakfast with Florida delegates, the actor Ben Affleck got into specifics, explaining that the Bush tax cuts had provided him with $1 million last year that he didn't need. (snip) We asked Mr. Affleck if he had considered sending the $1 million back to Washington. "No," he said. "I'm not Jesus Christ of the tax code. I can't completely martyr myself." I thought you didn't "NEED" the money from your tax break, yet your lobbying for an additional tax break. Unbelievable!!
