Governor Dean's Statement on his Upcoming Tax Plan
Statement from Governor Dean
BURLINGTON--Governor Howard Dean issued the following statement today:

"I have repeatedly called for the complete repeal of the 2001 and 2003 Bush tax cuts to pay for health care and make significant progress toward balancing the budget. As I have consistently said since November 2002, I will propose additional tax reforms that will make the tax code fairer for working families--and that will ensure that corporations and the wealthy pay their fair share."

2. He's taking his time
just like Clark did before he had other people figure out for him he wanted to run for president.

3. it's all about timing----there's a reason why clark released his tax plan
and it's in full primary season, so...the Dean campaign is looking for the right time to release his plan.

5. I expect it to be far more realistic then Clark's
Pragmatic Populism versus Empty Promises.

6. here's another link
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/news/archive/2004/01/07/politics1723EST0700.DTL

<<Dean declined to comment on his plans. Campaign spokesman Doug Thornell said the plan is still being developed and the campaign would not provide details, including when the plan will be made public>>

so when will the plan be completed?

17. Actually, he mentioned this months ago
He probably would have had more time to put it all on paper if he wasn't spending so much time defending himself against ridiculous attacks from other Democrats.

:shrug:

14. Actually that picture is the same one slink has long had.
Computer graphics don't morph like that unless someone morphs them (which I'm sure slinkerwink didn't).

I live to serve.

13. Good!
Unfortunately, Joe & Jane Public might see it (thanks to the "media") as "He's going to RAISE our taxes!" I hope that the message is loud and clear that Dean is going to undo *'s "rich people's break".

P.S. Nice to see you're still alive Slinkerwink :-)
