LOL, I can understand not believing Bush but the IRS is law, doesn't have an "opinion" of its own. Congress makes up the IRS laws and this whole package is from Congress, not Bush or the IRS. Bush merely wanted it; our Congresspeople made it happen.

It's not a refund check, but an "economic stimulus" check. Doesn't have anything at all to do with our taxes/income it's just that the IRS is the most logical agency to distribute it. Everyone gets the same amount, etc.

Here are some promotions various stores are having, hoping one will spend one's check with them :-)
