I'm thinking the argument is that by cutting taxes, they'd create so much growth that the tax base would be increased and they would make up from the rate reductions in addition to the deduction reform.

It's the same strategy used by the Reagan administration to lower taxes fairly across the board and to reduce the deficit.

Good one.

I realize that liberal elitists might point out that the "facts" indicate that this resulted in a tremendous growth of the deficit, however I think that would be overlooking the infallibility of the Reagan administration. Did anyone ever name an airport after the "facts"? No. Case closed.

*: I don't actually know what it adds up to. But I know that it's substantially less than $5 trillion, and I figure Obama can find out the real value easily enough.

**It doesn't actually matter what the real number is, Obama should say whatever sounds best on TV and then correct himself later.

See, even the liberal elitists agree that Reagan's handling of the deficit was "tremendous".
