Bush seeks $1.9 Trillion in Tax Cuts

I guess he can ask for whatever he wants, but he's whistling in the wind if he thinks he's going to get this budget passed:

WASHINGTON - President Bush asked Congress on Monday to slash taxes by $1.9 trillion over the next decade, cementing his first-term tax cuts while changing the way health insurance is taxed.

The lion's share of the president's proposed tax reductions would come from making permanent his signature cuts enacted in 2001 and 2003, at a cost of $1.6 trillion over the next 10 years. Those cuts would otherwise evaporate at the end of 2010.

At least, I hope so. Do the Dems have the stomach to vote against a tax cut?
