Yes. Republicans are against tax cuts. Or so, the New York Times would have you believe.

The Senate plan, reached in an agreement late Friday between Democrats and three moderate Republicans, focuses somewhat more heavily on tax cuts, provides far less generous health care subsidies for the unemployed and lowers a proposed increase in food stamps.
To help allay Republican concerns about the cost, the Senate proposal even scales back President Obama’s signature middle-class tax cut. The Senate plan also creates $30 billion in tax incentives to encourage Americans to buy homes and cars within the next year.
Republican opponents continued to rail against the stimulus plan on the Senate floor on Saturday, though it appeared they would not have the votes to stop it.
I read the article up to the point I have quoted but did not read further. I may well be mistaken but in any case there is no point in trying to read further once your head has exploded.
:whatever:
Really. WTF? Who are they kidding? Who are they fooling?

The NT Times doesn't have a lot of credibility these days. There is a reason why there readership is in the toilet.

Mabye so.
But lots and lots and lots of regional and local newspapers carry their wire feeds, as well as the biased Associated Press.
So their advocacy/adversary journalism, as well as outright lies, gets to a lot of people who may not follow politics as closely as some of us or others like us.
Thus, the infection of the NYT still spreads.
May its doors close today.

And that's the reason that after 50+ years of reading "The Charlotte Observer", I stopped taking it.
