He does not talk of President Obama saying on the campiagn trail that, <i>"I've cut taxes on small business eleven times,"</i> or that <i>"No one has cut taxes more often for the middle class than I have."</i> He doesn't talk about Obama's plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 25% with ofsetting loophole eliminations <i>"to be named later."</i> He doesn't talk about the fact that Obama, even at this late date, has no comprehensive tax plan of his own to replace the Bush tax rates which expire the end of this year.<br>This is not to defend Romney, but when you say "Fiscal Phonies" and talk only about Republicans... That is nonsense. I'll buy the title if you include both sides in it.<br>Bill Hhttp://billsandiego.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
