Bush's administration exists for pretty much one reason: to make those who are already quite rich richer still. This can be done in potentially 3 ways: by stealing from the poor, stealing from the middle class, or actually generating new wealth.
Stealing from the poor is a bad solution; they just don't have enough money for it to be worthwhile. Generating new wealth would require skills that Bush and his cronies lack. -- Bush himself is a former 'businessman', but he never actually made money. His business lost money consistently, and his investors financed him only for a tax writeoff or to score points with his dad. He later became a partner in a baseball team that scored a huge profit by having a stadium be built at taxpayer expense and then given away to the team. Most of the other businessmen close to him gained their wealth in similar ways, from government contracts, sweetheart deals, financial trickery, etc, rather than by actually creating and selling products or services.
So why make war on the middle class? By process of elimination, it's the only way left to achieve Bush's goal.

Right on, Tom W., Rotorhead, Jim J., and Darkwolf, and the rest who know what you are talking about!
My daughter is an economist and wonders how any of this stuff the liberals tout is believable.
We actually need more wealthy people! The Wealthy pay the top 79% of the taxes. They create jobs. The economy has not seen better days!
More than 3 million new jobs have been creatwed in the last 4 years, and more small businesses than ever have been started and are thriving.
Unemployment is at an all time low. The housing fiasco has nothing to do with the government by the way. Some people either did not read or understand the mortgages they signed, and went in too far over their heads.
I wonder also what's in that coffee?

I don't think him and Reagan waged war against us, they just didn't see us as important enough to worry about. They figure the upper middle class will go on to be wealthy and the lower middle class will become poor. They don't need us because we don't strongly support them because they have done nothing for us. The ones becoming rich will be on their side and the ones that become poor will not be. And the money wins huh?

The poor have no money and the rich like Bush ain't about to give up theirs. So we the working people pay almost all the taxes.

Because they are NOT in the middle class, and for the wealthy class to flourish it has become necessary to prevent others than themselves becoming wealthy.
It's called pulling up the ladder.
F 'em.

I don't feel assailed, but the thought of a Dem playing Croesus with America's finances scares the hell out of me.

why do liberals submit links that a HS teacher wouldn't accept in a term paper?

By fighting for more tax cuts for us, and I hope he keeps waging war on us.
The liberal Dem congress is out to screw us with tax increases to pay for their welfare tax/spend programs.
