I have seen your posts and yes, you have made rational comments. Most criticizers of the FC bill make blanket statements with NOTHING CONCRETE item by item refutation of the bill. So it is just hot air, and nothing substantive or realistic.
I am no Bohner fan but I don't tolerate dishonesty.
Bohner was put in a completely impossible position on this, one where he nor any other Speaker would have had a chance to win due to how success/failure was defined(success=forcing Reid and O to extend all tax rates by the threat of having no tax cut extensions in law) , and to make it sound rational the lie was repeated that this bill raised taxes.
Keep in mind that O/Dems repeated this, as as Rush and his talk radio lackeys, are and the MSM does it too. Why would they all together set the goal posts for GOP victory completely out of reach, so they are certain to fail?
Rush just now called this bill a tax increase that Rs went along with while throwing away core beliefs(???) in the process, and then he admitted the Bush tax cuts were temporary, all within 3 minutes.
I think no one does not know the truth. Even Rush fans repeating this know.
