Yep. And you're right - it's disgusting no matter who does it. And they both did.

i honestly dont see a problem with giving tax cuts that are commensurate with bracket.

hypothetical example (these numbers are just plucked out of the air for sake of argument)

YOUR TAX BRACKET_________YOUR TAX CUT AMT

low income..........................15.0%
low-middle income.................12.5%
middle income.......................10.0%
high-middle income................7.5%
High Income.........................4.5%
"Wealthty"...........................2.0%
you could buy the pope..........0.25%

you could buy the guy
that could buy the pope..........0.10%

why is that such a big no-no?
