In all three of his debates with Senator McCain, and regularly on the stump, Senator Obama repeatedly refers to cutting the business tax as a tax cut for the rich. The phrase "tax cuts for the rich" is a buzz word designed to promote class envy from which liberal demagogues hope to profit. It imputes a nefarious purpose to those who support a healthy business climate and implies that their motives are nothing but greed for money and power. Even more harmful, and more dangerous for our economy and our nation, it eliminates the possibility that any two people can have a disagreement without one of them being "evil," "corrupt" and "exploitative of the poor." The wedge that this tactic has driven in American politics and society is appalling, but it has worked, and those who have used it are loath to give it up.
It's a lie. It's a Big Lie. And they're sticking to it.
