The news medias fiscal cliff bs is just a plot to get Republicans to agree to raise taxes. Then the democrats/media will use that Republicans raised taxes to suppress conservative voter turnout in the 2014 election to get the House in democrat hands again so then they can pass Amnesty and gun control. Republicans shouldnt fall for this and not agree to any stupid deal.
I tried calling the House switchboard yesterday and no answer
The Republicans agreed to raise taxes when they accepted this deal in 2011 during the debt ceiling.
