I Can Have Fun with Numbers Too

From old-buddy Karl Rove's latest on WSJ Online:

Say "only a few percent of small businesses" will get taxed when 663,000 small enterprises are in the top 5%.


He was speaking about Obama's tax plan in regards to its handling of credits and tax increases on small business. That's great Karl, and 663,000 is a large number. That's a little over 13,000 businesses per state. However, the over 95% encompasses 12+ MILLION small businesses that would see credits or tax decreases.

Not that worrying about the few as opposed to the many has ever stopped a Republican argument.
