[QUOTE=spence
Ummm, actually...Bush had the tax cuts set to expire in 2010 so he wouldn't have to declare their full cost when the GOP made the proposal under his watch. This is more a lie than misinformation.

Are you saying that Bush did not want the tax cuts to be permanent? Are you saying that he, though being the most stupid President, tricked everyone again by inserting a sunset clause (I think the Congress did that) in order to avoid blame for their full costs(?) even though the Dems would obviously blame him for all bad things? Are you saying that the tax cuts would have been passed without the sunset clause? And you have proof of this and that the WSJ LIED.

[QUOTE=Spence] Because only the middle class smoke?

So, if others besides the middle class smoke, then it is not a tax on the middle class (as well as others)?

What standard of language accuses someone of lying without proof and dodges a direct accusation with a tricky "deke"?
