Liberal protesters target GOP budget

The San Francisco Chronicle reports:
The liberal alliance that hammered President Bush's Social Security plan has turned its sights on the Republican budget, running television commercials in the districts of seven Republican moderates and promising a pray-in at the Capitol on Wednesday.

The $500,000 ad buy, sponsored by the Emergency Campaign for America's Priorities and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees union, accuses the Republicans of voting to "slash health care for struggling families, cut college loans for middle-class kids and take food off the tables of poor children" to "give billions in tax breaks to millionaires."
Let's get the logic correct here:let's not give George Soros a tax cut but give him free Viagra,a free hospital stay,and increased Social Security benefits.These groups aren't opposed to the rich they are just for growing state power.After all where would the American Federation of State,County and Municipal Employees be without higher and higher taxes??
