Actually, Bush and his friends are more about finding ways to tax the wealthy less while shifting more of the burden to the poor and middle class in ways that can be more easily sold. That's why the Republicans are so eager to find a way to sell the so-called "flat tax" and consumption taxes. That way they pay less, the poor pay more, but nobody can point to higher rates to lay the blame.
