[0:14] CNN. The politics of taxes. President
[0:18] Bush savors his tax cut victory in the
[0:20] House and urges the Senate to help put
[0:22] his plan into action.
[0:24] A community mourns as one of two victims
[0:27] from this week's school shootings is
[0:29] laid to rest.
[0:31] And what a difference a year makes. The
[0:33] once high-flying NASDAQ is now in the
[0:36] midst of a

[1:25] weekly radio address, the president said
