uh no. george bush handed the keys to the economy to his rich friends..
the 2003 and 2006 tax cuts benefited the ultra wealthy. *and the

Yeah, the poor people. Sure is easy to blame them! But those rich people,
gotta give them all the breaks.

Again you miss the point.
If you rescind the Bush tax cuts, you also raise the tax rate of those
people near the bottom. For example the 10% rate is gone, replaced by
15%, the same is true of all the rates.

the bush tax cuts would remain for people earning less than 250K

the rich, who destroyed the economy, would start to pay their fair
missing

Someone making 250K is not rich, had nothing to do with the economy
issues, and is already paying more in taxes than others who earn less.
