I am confused. Is the cave in voted on last night a replacement for the legislation imposing the return to Clinton taxes and stringent cuts in spending? Or is it just a kick the can down the road again with the fiscal cliff still coming up? Thank you.

The spending cuts have been pushed out 2 months which means they will never happen. Everyone is paying 2% more in SSI. Make over 400k single or 450k married and pay Clinton rate of 39 and some odd percent or so. Under 400k/450k stays same.

All of these phony crises, are designed to raise taxes, and nothing else.

Yeah, check back in 2 months.

It will happen all over again with more flaccid GOP politicians caving to the Dims

None of the above, they always scare people to get more power and control, So they are now able to print unlimited money!

This will get ugly, long term!

This is a farce.

The Republicans by allowing the tax portion to pass have zero leverage on the spending negotiations that follow now.

Complete B.S.

Every congressional vote gas become just another political expediency for most of the congress critters. They’ve become highly predictable: predictably slimy.
