Democrats are "framing" the "fiscal cliff" debate entirely wrong.

By law, voted on by Republicans, taxes are scheduled to return to previous levels at the end of this year.

The President has offered a "tax cut" for every American. Republicans are voting against a "tax cut" for everyone because they want "more" for the top 1%. They are misrepresenting the President's position by calling it a tax increase.

Did you ever think you would see the day when Republicans voted against such a huge taxcut for all of America?
