Which side believes in the Magic Negro now, Mr Rush?

Shorter Republican Congressional Caucus on the stimulus bill:

Nevermind that the tax cuts for the rich, screw everyone else economic policies we and President Bush pursued for the last eight years caused this mess, if President Obama pursues the exact same tax cuts for the rich, screw everyone else policies, why, then, everything will come up roses and the nation shall be saved by the magic of the Invisible Hand.

Even shorter, from Avedon:

If the last three tax cuts are what got us into this mess, then how is a tax cut going to get us out?
