Because the backlash is getting pretty fierce.
A moslem tax on Christians for one.

Stupid tax in the first place. If it was bad to prop up GM and Chrysler, why should the government(taxpayers) be forced to pay to support the live Christmas tree producers vs. artificial tree makers?

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is going to delay implementation and revisit a proposed new 15 cent fee on fresh-cut Christmas trees,I though only Congress had the power to tax.

They should put a 95% tax on prayer rugs.

15 cents? It’ll cost more than that to administrate.

That is why libs love the bureaucracy and big government.
Lots of sneaky ways to add taxes WITHOUT the congress’s approval.

Now, why does zer0 want to tax Christmas trees? If you subsidize something, you get more of it. If you tax something you get less of it. Where's the "Christian" in zer0?
Oh wait, his next step is to subsidize Korans.

Would “holiday” trees be covered under this tax?

Why do we need a National Christmas Tree Association? What if we disagree with their stance? Do we have to pay anyway?
To: ColdOne
LOL.... Obama changes his vote to “present”.
Wait, WAIT!!!!!!
Was this going to be those “shovel ready jobs” that Obama promised....... over 3 long years ago????
Saw ready jobs??
