The vast majority of tax cuts (under Bush) went to special interests, select corporations, and our most privileged and wealthy citizens. They gave the wealthy and most powerful the vast majority of your tax breaks and gave everyone else a few crumbs and told them they've been to the party.

And I think President Bush is going to get his tax cut, which also is going to help. But the consumer is a big part of what's important here.

If you remember, the first day after Bush nominated Roberts as an associate justice, Democrats were basically out there talking tactics/strategy instead of conviction, and essentially saying they couldn't do anything. It was truly pathetic. They created a self-fulfilling prophecy by rolling over and dying.
