for those of you that don't "get it", here is why the Obama - McConnell - Boehner Tax Deal SUCKS ...
first of all, it spends $900 Billion to $1 TRILLION dollars we must borrow from China - IF THEY WILL LEND IT TO US ? and I'm guessing they will NOT ...
secondly, it continues the "Death Tax" which most contend is a Double Tax since the estate paid taxes on those assets when alive and now must pay again ?
thirdly, the agreement is for 2 years extension of the Bush Tax Rates which ends about election time in 2012 ...
what Boehner and McConnell gave Obama is a slam dunk victory going into the next Presidential election - and you say how ?
if extending the Bush Tax Rates creates jobs, guess who's great idea it will be ? remember, Boehner and McConnell do not have a bully pulpit ...
if extending the tax rates does not help the unemployment figures (and it wont because that is not what is holding employment back) it will then be the great Obama did his very best to work with those evil republicans and thank God he was able to get unemployment benefits extended along with those tax cuts for the rich, or those pesky republicans would have screwed the working class even worse ...
then, Obama will quietly explain how it was Boehner and McConnell who forced the deficit spending and how he did his best to at least help on the revenue side with eliminating the tax give-a-way to the richest 2% of the Country, but those rotten republicans just would not be bipartisan in their dealings and, you know, this all happened with a Republican Congress ...
get the idea ? ask ANYONE who has made any kind of deal with Obama how that is working out for them -
