George W. Bush, the man behind the tax breaks now sparking debate from President Obama and his likely challenger, Mitt Romney, just wishes that the policies didn’t bear his name.

“I wish they weren’t called the Bush tax cuts,” he said, chuckling, during a speech at the New York Historical Society. “If they were called someone else’s tax cuts, they’d be less likely to be raised.”

But with Bush’s moniker firmly attached, the policies are turning out to be a key election talking point.

You made your bed, you get to lie in it! You should be counting your lucky stars that bed isn't a cot in a federal prison.

5. I wish they were called the Obama tax cuts.

Because the Repigfuckers like Cantor and McConnell would be trying to get rid of them too.
