What's scary is that the President has never spelled out anything resembling a guiding philosophy of taxation.

That's because the tax cuts were done to buy votes, not to help the economy.

Nonsense!
The Bush tax cuts are precisely what saved us from the double whammy of the Klinton recession and the ravages of the economic effects of 9/11.
President Bush inherited a recession, and is finishing his first term with an economy rocking along with a sizzling 3.9% GDP growth in the last quarter alone.
Try comparing that to Germany and France (who Hanoi John Kerry wants to take orders from) with their pathetic, anemic 0.1% GDP growth in the last quarter!
