On the recordDecember 18, 2005

we keep hearing there are all these vicious tax cuts. There are no cuts in this bill. A vote for this bill means we are voting not to raise taxes. And it has done my heart good to hear so many religious references to Jesus and to the Bible. I would point you in that direction. Jesus never said, go ye and use and abuse your taxing authority. Take from others to give. He said, you do it. And I would offer you the example of Zacharius when he met Jesus. What did he do? He went and cut taxes.
