1. Or the "Walton Family Tax Cuts"
or, to really piss off Glenn Beck, call them the "George Soros Tax Cuts."

8. I admire you for being a teacher Catshrink, I truly do!
I ran for school board once to give oppressed teachers a voice they were not getting from the administration. My ex taught multiple handicapped children and was a miracle worker.

We teachers always need "friends" on the school boards.

9. That's not bad...but I still prefer "THEFT"
Since the money they're returning to the rich is money they got from screwing the workers AND the customers.

10. The "IGMFU" tax cuts. "I Got Mine, F-U."
Or how 'bout let's get a whole lot more simple:

The Selfish Tax Cuts.
The Greedy Tax Cuts.
The Glutton Tax Cuts.
The Pirate Tax Cuts.
The Bad-Guy Tax Cuts.
The Anti-American Tax Cuts.
The Jesus-Haters Tax Cuts.
The Pharisees Tax Cuts.
The Money-Changers-in-the-Temple Tax Cuts.
The Screw-you Tax Cuts.

Let's start calling them, and their beneficiaries, what they are. No more fancy delicate tiptoe-around-it language. The bad guys don't cut us any breaks that way. Why should we keep being diplomatic with them. They come with meat-axes? I say we respond with meat-axes. Tired of bringing feather dusters to gun fights.
