Frankly, I think this is politics at its worst.

But, I understand why the GOP is doing this. They were castigated last time for insisting that the payroll tax be paid for with spending cuts.

This time, they are right to just extend it, with no restrictions. Then, they can put the responsibility on the Democrats for holding it up.

Somehow the GOP insiders believe they will be able to hold Obama and crew accountable for record deficits and debt.

Fat chance with the “Truth Teams” spinning in the media

No. They're wrong. It shouldn't be extended at all.

It's 1/6 of the funding for Social Security. If they can't make that clear, they really do need to be thrown out.
