March of 2009. It was part of the stimulus package.
They cut taxes? I don't recall a tax cut for the wealthy in 2009.
The stimulus package contained around $300B in tax cuts including items such as a payroll tax deduction, sales tax deductions for vehicle purchases and an extension of the AMT patch. All of those, and others, cut taxes for the rich.
8537 did say it "cut taxes for the rich" but did not say "ONLY cut taxes for the rich"
The issue others had with your comment 8537 is that, over the years, many on the liberal side of issues have falsely labelled the bush tax cuts as "Tax cuts for the rich" and by doing so have ignored the facts of the bush tax cuts. Those facts being that the rich got the smallest percentage of a reduction while the poor got a complete elimination of their tax burden (federal income tax in all instances here)
