Democrats want to cut taxes?

According to Sarah Lueck at the Wall Street Journal, Democrats are seeking to give middle class tax payers a tax cut;

The new Democratic-controlled Congress is looking to rein in looming tax increases on the middle class, possibly covering the cost by raising taxes on upper-income households. And the Bush administration may not stand in the way.

Of course, Democrats couldn’t just give the American middle class a tax cut without looking for someone else to increase taxes upon, could they? And they’d never think to balance the tax cut with a spending cut, could they?
