...Trent Lott and Denny Hastert's placard, meanwhile, said "Tax Relief for Everyone," and the pair leaned heavily on Bush's "the average working family gets $1,600" pitch. The plan, of course, has something for every conservative Republican - across-the-board cuts for the tax-code ideologues, marriage-penalty reductions and per-child and charitable expansions for the social conservatives - and Hastert and Lott seem quite content to pass the thing...
