When you're on the wrong side of the argument, or just simply hypocritical, the past will always find a way to come back and slap you down. Republicans for high taxes? Yes.
The Republicans were for fiscal policy based on thoughtful tax policy, before Grover Norquist dumbed down the political party.
For instance, during the Kennedy Nixon debates, Kennedy wanted to lower taxes while the Republicans thought that was fiscally irresponsible. Nixon gave money to poor people, a negative income tax, based on a Milton Friedman idea.
I wish Chris Matthews could have spent more time exploring the ideas tossed around here, but you take what you can get.
