Tax Cut Fight Is Early Present to Obama

Wait until the Republican primaries end and watch the price of oil go up. The distraction from the rise in profits by big oil companies in a time of economic challenge has been put on hold so it does not distract or become a focus by the American public as the Republicans play out their drama with their array of "candidates" for the Presidency. Good reality tv play out but not good for the American people...

Basically, unless they come up with something big, the republicans have just handed the president the election.

NO MORE DIM WITTED REPUBLICANS IN THE OVAL OFFICE DRAGGING US INTO UNNECESSARY WARS

The GOP improved the presidents image as defender of the middle class. The senate GOP humiliated the house GOP. We get to beat the right wing nut-jobs up again in two months. Sweet!

re. "Tax Cut Fight Is Early Present To Obama"
Actually, it's just the opposite.
Had the Democrat Socialists agreed to a year extension, this fight would have been over with and forgotten by November 2012.
Since it's only a 2 month extension-i e just kicking the can down the road once again- this issue of Obama and the Democrat Socialists raising taxes of all working Americans in these hard times, and in an election year will be a big campaign issue for the GOP.
By the looks of it, Obama and the Democrat Socialists may have won a battle, but the GOP may have won the war.
We'll find out who won on election day of 2012 when the American people vote.
If the US Senate swings to the GOP, and they gain more seats in the US House, it's the GOP that'll have won the war. If Obama and the Democrat Socialists hold the US Senate, and either make large gains in the US House, or even take it back, it'll be they who won.

Obama To Clinton: "You're A Racist." Clinton Calls Obama: "The Worst President Ever."
Only one week after reporting that Michelle Obama may be having a "steamy secret affair" with a Secret Service agent, The media has just unleashed another bombshell that may very well sink the foundering Obama Regime. According to televised media, long-standing tensions between Barack Obama and Bill Clinton reached the boiling point during a recent golf outing at Andrews Air Force Base.
According to multiple unnamed sources, Clinton has been confiding to close pals that Obama is "the worst President ever" and his presidency is a "sinking ship" that is "taking the Democratic party and the country down with him," and when Obama confronted him on the comments, Clinton looked him in the eye and said; "Yes, it's a fact." The news reports: "At that point, the source adds, Obama went ballistic and told the ex-Prez; 'Then you are a racist and no different than the rest of them.'"

Either tax the rich or eat them. It's time they paid their fare share and help the rest of us return the country to stable financial footing.

The National Debt now approaches $16 Trillion, in excess of the GDP. Unfunded entitlements and debt now something over $62 Trillion. This tax holiday will take more money out of Social Security which is running at an estimated $50 Billion a year shortfall. Yes Obama should be circling the track doing high fives all around.
This is Obama fiddling while the Nation burns. Obama is more interested in his re-election and these freak budget sideshows to distract from the train wreck the economy, debt and spending of the Nation is in. This is pathetic and only the shill media would be trying to color this as a positive by kicking this can down the road for another Obama sideshow campaign issue in two months.
Vote out all incumbents in 2012. Ron Paul for President. It is time we get serious about the debt, the size and cost of government, and stopping the wars.
