A little
netscape news article takes a stab at Bush.
Continue to allow more of taxpayers' income to be taxed at 10 percent, the lowest rate, for six years.
Oh! We can't have that. Congress "allowing" the people to keep more money. Actually, if it is the lowest in six years that means Clinton raised taxes. He probabbly did so to support his wife's failed social pet projects.
Retain for four years a provision giving married couples relief from the so-called marriage penalty.
The bias here is the "so-called" part. They are just giving a negative twist to a negative term associated with taxes. Sorry, a double negative doesn't make a positive.
Bill Maher had a interesting comment on terminology a few years ago. (He is one who supports stuff like Estate Tax.) I don't have it memorized word for word, but I do recall him saying something like:
The American public have such a dim view of politics. Someone comes out with the estate tax and everyone supports it. Then one senator comes up with some catch phrase like "Death Tax" and everyone turns against it.
I agree with him on this. If they hate the legislation why does it pass in the first place. I hate the dreaded death tax but everyone allowed it to pass because it would give more social programs more money and should only affect the rich. (Not affect everyone, which it does.) If all it takes is a catch phrase to change people's minds than a large sad chunk of the voting public are an insiped group of high school-popularity-contest-following morons! I wonder if calling my voter base morons will hurt my chance for running for office?
