...absolutely free! - a $4,000 college-tuition tax credit. Plus, this special onetime offer: universal day care!" To be sure, the Republicans had their own special interests and slovenly hypocrisies - an avalanche of corporate tax breaks that made Swiss cheese out of the federal code - but they could always return to their big, clean public offer: freedom, strength, morality...
