RE :”“The worst thing that Republicans can do is raise taxes,” Matt Kibbe of Freedomworks said Friday. “If Obama wants to raise taxes, he can do that, but Republicans shouldn’t give him cover. If Obama wants to go over the cliff, let him own that.” …

Here's the flaw in this political strategy.

All those taxes go up January 1 without either party votes and then Obama will continue to blame Rs for them going up and every day he will get on TV and demand the house pass (extend) middle class tax cuts.
Obama: “The Republican party is blocking tax cuts for you to protect those billionaires from paying a dollar more in taxes”

Obama plays to win, not to play symbolic games. We will never beat him by living in a fantasy world where these taxes stay as they are if Republicans do nothing.

Furthermore, I don’t understand why conservatives are still letting themselves be dictated to by a man, Grover Norquist, who as reported here several times at FR is an apparent Muslim sympathizer. Is this why he is pushing so hard for no taxes that will damage support to our Military? What his efforts will do to our military if sequestration is allowed to take place borders on treason.
