28. i would guess it has something to do with the 2009 arra, which included some modifications

in the bush tax cuts.

or else something to do with projections (like cbo's) that project the rich will have some down years next decade due to recession.

though i see no evidence they will.

ah, no, here it is: they're using figures from treasury:

According to figures from the Treasury, extending the Bush income tax cut for the richest 2
percent would cost $678 billion over a decade.

again, projections.
