OK, I'm confused. Bunning says we need to save in this time, not
spend. That's the argument he's giving for repealing the estate tax. So the wealthy can save. Doesn't that mess up "trickle down" economics. Oh, I hope someone on our side was paying attention.

3. Allard just made the same argument.
Please someone get up there and call them on this canard. I wish the 30-Something Dems were in the Senate.

4. Repealing this tax will pile on the national debt.
So what he's saying is bullshit. Giving more money to the super-rich only hurts our economy and our deficit.

Are all Dem candidates going to speak this way?
