....Bush's tax cuts have put millions in
the pockets of the US's wealthiest citizens, and that's about all it's
done. If you're in favor of that, then fine. Just be honest about it.

Did you say that President Bush's tax cuts were good for the economy?
Did you offer this hypothetical productivity increase as a prime example
of how the Bush/Cheney economy is booming? Did you call Jonathan Ganz
names and cast aspersions at his statements on the subject?

I don't see a straw man at all. Looks like a major backpedal...
