Cronyn's statement is correct. It's misleading, but it's correct. It's misleading because it narrowly restricts the scope of his statement.

They should have to defend that unfairness -- explain why somebody who's making $50 million a year in the financial markets should be paying 15 percent on their taxes, when a teacher making $50,000 a year is paying a higher rate.

Obama didn't say that secretaries pay higher taxes than millionaires, although he left that impression

Interesting that you didn't say the SAME THING about Obama's statement. Why is that?
