The tax cuts are already in place for the middle class. All he has to do is keep them Why is it so hard for the Republicans to make that case?

What? The tax cuts are not in place. They expire on January 1 and revert back to Clinton rates. Obama is saying just let's pass the middle class tax cuts and let the rates go back up on the "rich."

The Reps want to extend the rates for everyone. What case are you talking about?

“The tax cuts are not in place. They expire on January 1...”

That’s what j117 means I think. Just extend the tax cuts now so they don’t expire. Just like Obama did once before! Of course that was before he was elected for the second time making him King for four years.

Foul language herein.

No tax increases for anyone. Cut spending. Yes, w/o a deal I’ll suffer financial loss but we are in a battle which must be won.
