5. Perhaps they were pondering McCain's "brazen flip-flop on the estate tax..."
Brazen McCain Flip-Flop on the Estate Tax

The Wonk Room has a good catch.

McCain in September 2005:

"I follow the course of a great Republican, Teddy Roosevelt, who talked about the malefactors of great wealth and gave us the estate tax. I oppose the rich passing on fortunes."

McCain yesterday:

"The estate tax is one of the most unfair tax laws on the books."

This of course compliments McCain's biggest tax flip flop. Back when he cared more about principle and less about winning elections, he was against the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy. Now he's for them, and more.

Former McCain flip-flops...

4. Carly Fiorina and Lindsey Graham are both lying about the corporate tax rate in America.
As John Kerry pointed out to Lindsey Graham on ABC's This Week this past Sunday, the effective corporate tax rate in this country is in line with other industrialized countries. The average effective corporate rate for 2000-2006 was actually 25%--not the 35% McCain and his minions tout!
