HAHA. He wasn't bashing bush for using tax loopholes. He was saying that the Bush campaign comes up with numbers for small business owners filing their business revenue on their personal income taxex, by including people like Bush and Cheney who claim $1-$100 and don't employ any people. One of their arguments against the tax on the rich is hurting these "small businesses". It hurts some, but not nearly as many as the campaign says.

To your main point, Kerry readily says that he gets tax breaks and doesn't think it's right. Do you honestly think that if the goverment is GIVING HIM MONEY he would, or is EVEN ABLE TO say no? Of course not! He's just getting what the current tax system says he deserves. He says he's going to change it. Bush says the current system works. Who's right?
