Bullcrap!
Thats the epithet Orrin Hatch threw at his fellow senator, Sherrod Brown, during a meeting of the Senate Finance Committee. Browns offense? He pointed out that Republicans arent shooting straight when they say their tax cuts for the rich will help the middle class.
Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) had called the GOPs bluff with an amendment to their bill that would have cancelled tax cuts for corporations if middle-class wages dont rise something Republicans have promised their tax plan will deliver.
Republicans promptly blocked it.
Stating the Obvious
As he spoke for Wydens doomed amendment, Brown commented upon the obvious. I just think, he said, it would be nice, just tonight, before we go home, to just acknowledge, well, this tax cut really is not for the middle class, its for the rich.

Call them all. If you go to Zillow for the individual STATE you can get a local address and zip to use in case the senator's phone staffer needs validation that you are a voting constituent. It works and they NEVER check. I have done it with over 400 calls in the past year. It literally takes two minutes to Google Zillow. Your phone area code doesn't matter due to cell phones. Tell them a personal story. Also, here is a useful link to share...
