RE :"The Republicans did just that by getting the Democrats to vote FOR extending the tax cuts for two months."

The Republicans forced Democrats into voting for a two month extension that just passed after Boehner caved??? Have you been following this closely?

Yes. Do you think those tax cuts would have been extended if the House was still under the control of the Dems. Do you think a Senate with a veto proof Dem majority would have voted to continue to keep the tax cuts at all?

The GOP failed to get the tax cuts extended for another year, OK, I admit that. But they got them extended two months WITH DEM SUPPORT, and saved them to fight another day, and the Dems will have to fight to repeal tax cuts they just VOTED TO EXTEND.
