“it will be a painful lesson the American people will never forget”

I expect it will be a painful lesson that the American people will never learn.

The dems won’t own it, because they own the media, which will continue to sucessfully dupe the electorate into believing that the dastardly republicans hijacked Obama’s presidency and produced economic chaos that he couldn’t possibly prevent.

The obama voters remind me of a particularly stupid dog that doesn’t notice it’s being led into a kennel because someone is dangling a treat in front of its eyes.

all of the Bush tax cuts(sic)

Peter Ferrara is an economic moron.

When the current tax rates are increased, tax revenues will decrease since the economy is dynamic not static and that will produce the actual tax cut.

Dittios on the stupidity of the electorate.....especially Obama drones. The man is acting like a dictator worthy of a banana republic, yet no one seems to mind.

I really don’t understand this. Federal spending has been determined through continuing resolutions since 2006, not Congressional budgets.

There is nothing to discuss in the expiration of the Bush tax cuts since they are reaching their legislative ‘sunset’ date.

Either Obama agrees with Congress and continues some or all of the cuts or they automatically expire. Either way he owns it since spending is no longer set by Congress.

Yep. Why should your “tax refund” be greater than the amount of tax than you actually pay? It isn’t a refund, it is a transfer from someone else.
