Great post on this day where the Republicans are preparing to fillibuster the President’s proposed extention of the payroll tax relief. Let’s all support lower taxes by opposing the GOP fillibuster and supporting the President’s plan!!!!!
Members of both Parties are against simply continuing the payroll tax relief while paying for the cost.
“Top lawmakers from both parties are seeking ways to offset the cost of extending a U.S. payroll tax cut, establishing markers for negotiations over how to prevent the break from expiring Dec. 31.”
Still, McConnell made clear in a Senate floor speech today that Republicans “will put aside their misgivings” about extending the payroll tax holiday because “it will give some relief to struggling workers who continue to need it.”
And, it comes down to class warfare. Democrats want the “rich” to pay more money than they already are and Republicans don’t want the “rich” to pay more money. Making budget cuts is the solution.
Thanks to President Obama’s effective leadership and standing up for working families, he has forced the Republicans to start to back down from their previous opposition to middle class tax relief. First, moderate GOP en. usan Collins said she would support the President. Then the Repulican opposition began to crumble, but still not all GOP senators are on board. McConnell put forward a proposal loaded withh gimmicks that don’t actually offset under the GOP own rules, but it is the start.
Thank you PRESIDENT OBAMA for your leadership in making the Republicans back down from their opposition to Middle Class tax Relief!
It is disturbing how you praise and worship the Obamesssiah Kurt when he is the most pro-abortion President and has been the most hostile to liberty and freedom in recent U.S. history. You and many other pro-choice Catholics have enabled the murderous abortion industry to continue by supporting an advocate of baby-killing – President Obama. You are morally complicit in intrinsic evil. No wonder you didn’t like my post on voting for pro-abortion candidates and consequentialism. You are the master of consequentialism.
Ahh yes, I commend the President for a very specific policy act that conservatives have made a laughingstock of themselves trying to oppose, and what happens? Play the abortion card. What a joke.
You commend one of the most immoral people on this planet, Kurt. Is that who a faithful Catholic should look up to? If yes, I feel sorry for you. I pray for the day you follow true Catholicism, not your distorted view which you have aligned with your progressive agenda. Any Catholic who supports Obama is a bad Catholic, one who misunderstands principles of the Catholic Faith. You support immorality. You are a perfect example of a “cafeteria catholic”.
President needs to cut his own salary out of the budget. That would be a start to putting our country right on track. He isn’t much different than Hugo Chavez. But, I guess you admire him too 😉
But Biden says paying more taxes is patriotic.
@Trestin
Yeah. If Biden wants to feel more patriotic then he can donate as much money of his own as he wants to the federal government. Instead, he wants to force others to be more patriotic. Such hypocrisy….
