Actually, I believe the GOP had to accept the “sunset” terms in order to get the reduction in rates.

And .. please refer to them as “RATES” - they were not tax “CUTS”.

However, the GOP should have taken care of the issue a long time ago.

Absolutely correct. The Senate Democrats, and I remember KKK Byrd going to town on this, got the mantra going about how we have no idea what things will be like in ten years.

Of course the Bush Tax Rate Cuts increased Tax Revenue by 35% from 2003 to 2007, but I heard only ONE Republican mention that little fact before the Election, Fred Thompson.

He told the Party to remind the American People that during most of the Bush Term we had increased Tax Revenue, 5% Unemployment, 4% GDP Growth, the highest number of people employed and the Deficits were going down, not up.

Amazingly, all that happening after we were told the Country would take ten years to recover from the Financial Impact of 9/11. The Rats own the Media and the Republicans are afraid to say what must be said, Obama LIES, his Rat supporters LIE and the Media covers up the LIES and hides the TRUTH.
