Reply to "GOP says it'll block bills until tax cuts extended"

quote:
The republicans are not asking for Tax cuts, they are asking that taxes not be INCREASED by extending the cuts that are ALREADY IN PLACE. Not really a hard concept to grasp.

The dems have to have them expire. They based their fake numbers on this to make the health-care bill balance with the budget. Problem is, they based it on all cuts expiring, not just the upper range. Now they realize that would have the effect of raising taxes on the middle class, and that makes Obama's statement of 'not one dime' a lie.
