Or is that going to be extremely hard now? Can't think of to many things more important than letting those tax cuts expire to help the deficit.

1. There will likely be no action on much of anything including that |
|
Just IMO. All we'll have is witchhunts.

4. actually i don't think they will pull that now. they didn't get the |
|
big takeover they were expecting. they now have one branch, but we have the other two and if played right dems can kick their butt in 2012. that's probably why boner was crying, his butt is exposed with nothing to cover it. those stupid teabaggers will try to push for big cuts and that's when the fun will start.

3. The tax cuts expire at the end of THIS year. |
|
The next Congress could restore them, I suppose. We'll have to keep the heat on the Senate to make them stop that shit.

They pukes will have to Govern! Doing nothing will mean the tax cuts expire so they will have to either work with the current session on a solution or draft legislation.

6. I have a feeling they'll ALL expire |
|
but if tax cuts are extended for anyone, you can bet the GOP will throw enough of a hissy fit to extend them to billionaire hedge fund boys that they're all extended.
It's a good thing Obama got a lot done in his first 2 years. He sure as hell won't get much done for the next 2.
