Sounds to me like Kerry wants to raise income taxes.

MR. Kerry you can keep your F*****G tax plan to yourself, leave President Bush's Tax plan alone. We don't want to pay anymore taxes.

Kerry is a muppet. Convoluted, issue jumping, political sleezeball. And that's on his good days.

This new pitch at doing NOTHING will gain him, oh, maybe 2 votes. His and his dog's, (who I am pretty sure votes).

Risky scheme... Wouldn't be prudent.

If somebody does not pay income tax, how do they get a rebate of income taxes?

Bush's answer should be:

I am not for raising people's income taxes by rolling back what we have already passed. But I think that decreasing payroll taxes as well is not a half bad idea.

There should be more tax cuts, not less. PresBushes 2001 tax reduction plan should be accelerated, not frozen. Capital gains should be slashed. The death tax and the marriage penalty tax should be abolished. The AMT should be killed. The best move, would be for the Bush administration to push for serious tax reform and make that part of his reelection strategy for 2004.

Bush can respond "keep my tax break, phase out AMT tax, AND provide 6 month temporary moratorium on payroll taxes."

These guys still don't get it. Someone needs to tell the rats "IT'S THE WAR STUPID". By time the election rolls around nothing else will matter. Some would say this is by coincidence. Others might contend that we have drug this post 9-11 thing out this long for a reason. Either way... it is what it is.

Uhm....

Let me see...

To get the so called "Kerry" plan passed, it would have to be passed by a Republican house, and a Republican senate. It would then have to be signed by president Bush, who made the tax cuts the centerpiece of his agenda.

Uhhm....

I wouldn't hold my breath Senator Kerry!

Folks,

We have won. For the first time in recent memory, the argument is not whether there SHOULD be tax cuts or not from the Dems, but where they should come from and how much they should be.

proposal for a one-year rebate of some of the payroll taxes that workers now provide to support the Social Security and Medicare systems.

This is a one-time rebate, not a permanent reduction in the payroll tax. Kerry can stuff it! I prefer a permanent reduction of tax rates. Even the Bush plan is only for ten years, but that's a lot better than Kerry's proposal.

Kerry is in the wealthiest 1% of taxpayers. Perhaps he should tell how Bush's tax cuts helped him and hurt everybody else.

"By 2010 the wealthiest 1 percent of taxpayers will receive 52 percent of the administration tax cuts, according to Citizens for Tax Justice, a watchdog group based in Washington, D.C."

Citizens for Tax Justice? Tax Justice would mean they would refund the taxes to those WHO PAID THEM. Is this a joke?

Here's a copy of the letter I just fired off to the author of this article:

Dear Mr. Johnson:

Your article was very interesting, but a bit incomplete.

>>By 2010 the wealthiest 1 percent of taxpayers will receive 52 percent of the administration tax cuts, according to Citizens for Tax Justice, a watchdog group based in Washington, D.C. >>

In the interests of accuracy and good reporting, you should follow this sentence up with another that tells how large a percentage of overall taxes are paid by the wealthiest 1 percent of taxpayers. Otherwise, the sentence is as misleading as it is useless, because it lacks a vital context.

Sincerely, (etc)
