Why can we not get 41 democratic senators |
|
to sign a letter saying THEY will filibuster ANY tax deal that allows those earning more than 250K to keep there tax cuts above 250K??

2. The cynical part of me would suggest it's because we don't have 41 Senators |
|
making under $250K. Make the number $1million and maybe you'd have a shot.

3. Because then the cuts will expire and Democrats will once again be known |
|
as the party that raised your taxes. And there will be signatures to prove it come next election. Unfortunately, this is what they're most afraid of.

You say it was the REBUPLICANS that raised taxes.. They were trying to blackmail the country to force us to extend the cuts to the top 2% and deny it to the other 98%.. They who claim they want to fix the deficit.. Do a full media press on this point.. keep hitting it and hitting it and hitting.. Fight DAMN it!!! FIGHT!!! They sure do
