1. It is simply mindboggling that Bush's tax cuts for the rich are still in place

when they were set to expire back in December. You really have to wonder if we are any less corporate now than when Bush was in office.

2. the public believe in taxing the very rich

it is only the rich who and people (with one brain cell) like the followers of the tea party who don't believe in the taxing the very rich.

3. What the people want didn't matter. Obama just had to compromise with the Repukes. NT

6. He seems to believe the process is more important than the end result

We hear about 'a balanced approach' yet we never get an explanation of exactly what that is and how it is better.

4. Unrec for completely ignoring what the President has reiterated over and over.

And also stunning naivete that the Tea Party will EVER listen to reason on taxes.

:crazy:

7. Obama was the one pushing for a 'balanced approach'

The GOP got what it wanted and we got nothing. WTF is 'balanced' about that? FOX news slogan as policy?
