Congress Delays Vote on Bush Tax Cuts Until After Elections

tax cuts for all or none!!!!

Democrats are afraid to stand up for what they want , They have demonized the rich to try to instill class warfare and they are failing in doing so . The Democrats have been taken over by the far left and it has destroyed there party . Just like the Republicans lost there way so has have the Democrats . They have become a party of far left ideology and embracing socialism and trying to install far left policies which will change America . I reject them and there ideology on Nov 2 !

Oh well ,this is precious....the democrats are forcing a game of chicken with the economy..... and 300 million American lives. Tax increases slow recover....period, so don't hand me that only the top 2% line ...facts are such difficult things for dems. Well, ok the dems let the INCREASE HAPPEN(it is an increase because rates were at this level for the last ten years)...will the economy wobble and go back into recession? Why do you even want to take that chance? Evidently, the dems are not capable of seeing this or don't care..... either way how long before this is reversed and what happens to the people who are victimized by these increases...death tax or bankruptcy because of additional business drop off or any number of other reasons.

I knew the democrats weren't going to extend these tax cuts for ANYONE. The democrats were just holding that carrot out there, when the Republicans said that they would consider a tax increase for the wealthy that backfired on obama.

Yes matt 102678 and the republicans and DINOs mentioned in the article want the biggest free lunch for those with the highest incomes. Every republican administration since Nixon has built the deficit. They may prefer not to levy taxes but they spend anyway although it is usually on killing people in other countries and building better ways to do so rather than helping people at home.

Correction: Lieberman not a democrat. CT dems rejected him as their representative. I believe he still caucuses with the democrats because he is afraid of being "McCained" by the republican right wing whackos ( McCained: Cowed into empty shell of former self to keep job)

Another bold move on the part of controlling Democrats to dodge responsibility before facing voters.

$3 trillion added to the national debt in 2 years and nothing to show for it except higher unemployment and more people put into poverty. Where did the money go? The ultra rich are getting richer now and always have under the dems.

Is the G.O.P. in congress delay the tax cut so the rich keep ther cut's for 3 more year Ronald Mayfield

As I read the comments from many of you supporting the left wing progressive democrats and upon reflecting over their agenda for the last 18 months or so the entitlement mentality of most on the left continues to frighten me and brings anxiety for our future with them holding the majority in Washington. YOur left wing logic and thought process can be summed up by the following anon quote: "We've gone from a country who's popultion instinctively knew there was no such thing as a free lunch to one who's convinced itself the consumption of free lunches is a revenue generating activity."
