Im my opinion, this is all just a bunch of well-orhcestrated kabuki theater for the dopey masses.

Nothing will get passed, both parties will do what they do best, which is to point the finger of blame at each other, and everyone's taxes will go up.

“How can they pass a middle class tax cut extension, when the Bush cuts were only for the rich in the first place?”

What are you, a troublemaker? :)

Golly gee! They passed a “taxes-stay-at-the-same-high-level-for-lower-incomes-but-get-jacked-up-for-everyone-else” bill. Whoo-hoo, what are we celebrating for?

That is good. I had a good time typing my sarcastic post knowing that it will never go through the Senate. Whoever make 60 the rule for the Senate was brilliant.

I believe this requires an understanding of the Pelosi Bill. The real bill will have to come later. Boehner calls this one like it is “Chicken Crap”.

It should die in the Senate, but the lawyer in me has to respect the ingenuity of finding a loophole to get it through.

DOA in the Senate

In the spirit of bipartisanship, they'll roll.

Good one ~

What John needs to do is collect all the keys to the Democrat offices and keep them in a big jar.

They'll have nothing to do for the next two years.

The Bush cuts weren't only for the rich....Myself and every working member of our family got a tax cut....and a check in the mail, too.

That tax cut was pretty hefty...
