Republicans need to walk out and let Obama and dems own this. How many times do the people need to say this?
Rush nailed it today. Obama WANTS the fiscal cliff to happen. Taxes go up on everyone at first of the year, he says he tried to negotiate, he blames Republicans. Then, after the pain is sufficiently felt by the people with higher unemployment, business closures, etc, he swoops to the rescue and says: “We need to save the middle class and offer them some sort of a [lesser] tax cut.” Republicans can’t object, he gets to call himself a tax cutter. It’s all very Machiavellian, evil in fact. But everyone here has already come to expect this from Obama.
