party cutting class
The Democratic Party opposes tax cuts but it cannot say so publicly. Thus, it is forced to support the idea of lowering the tax burden but using class warfare rhetoric to dispute the allocation of the relief.
cutting government class
In the name of short-term stimulus, he [Obama] will give every American family (who makes less than $200,000) a welfare check of $1,000 euphemistically called a refundable tax credit. And he will so sharply cut taxes on the middle class and the poor that the number of Americans who pay no federal income tax will rise from the current one-third of all households to more than half. In the process, he will create a permanent electoral majority that does not pay taxes, but counts on ever-expanding welfare checks from the government.
stupid class warfare
The problem: Democrats have to drop their stupid class-warfare rhetoric. With 74 million Americans owning stock in one form or another, anything which helps them can't be derided as a sop to the rich.

In direct and indirect ways, ... Clinton sent messages to the Saudi monarchy: If you want to help me, you'll increase oil production and hold down prices.
advance agenda aim bush candidate choose divide impunity incredibly kerry listen people questions striking taking united virtually voters whenever
In an incredibly striking contrast, Bush voters are united on virtually all the questions that divide the Kerry vote. So, Bush can advance his agenda with impunity while taking aim at Kerry voters who are antagonized by their candidate whenever he has to choose a position. If Kerry can get people to listen and think, Bush is toast.
fortunate guy president respond time
Man, is that guy fortunate! Fortunate to be able to be president at a time when he CAN respond without violating his principles.
ideas political voters
There is literally no such thing as an idea that cannot be expressed well and articulately to today's voters in thirty seconds.
politics misguided worst
More and more, the Democrats are not merely inconsistent, wrong and/or misguided - they are the worst of all possible things you can be in Washington: irrelevant.
political agendas sides
Yes' is a far more potent word than 'no' in American politics. By adopting the positions which animate the political agenda for the other side, one can disarm them and leave them sputtering with nothing to say.
I love Karl Rove. He elected Bush.
art mean sacrifice
Washington is a mean town where human sacrifice has been raised to an art form.
communication thinking views
Anybody who thinks that getting a communication from a voter in your district is spam - that guy is pork. Roast pork unless he changes his point of view.
gay unions splits
Public-opinion polls show that Americans split about evenly on civil unions. But when the words 'gay marriage' are presented, they break 3-to-1 against it.
wall war alliances
The financial interdependence of the world's banks is like the interlocking alliances that predated World War I.
