If the GOP agree’s to this, they are over as a major party

Apparently they’ve learned nothing from “read my lips”
This is why I hate republicans. They will actually consider doing this, because they are afraid that the NYT and liberals will think they are holding the budget hostage. They will cave, raise taxes, piss off their base, win NO points with liberals, and not have the balls to “cut” anything. Lest they get labeled as “grandma killers”. Then the DNC will run ads in 2012 about how the republicans LIED about not raising taxes. Even though it was the democrats plan. They did the same thing with GHWB. When Bush agreed to the DEMOCRATS plan for tax increases, with promised “cuts” in exchange, they had the nerve to run ads 24/7 about Bush lying about “Read my lips”. He gave the dems what they wanted, then they used their own flipping plan as a campaign ad against Bush. How many times must this happen for republicans to learn they can’t trust the dems on ANYTHING?
