Obama was right. The Repubs did hold the middle class hostage for their position, and so did the Democrats for theirs. In fact, the Dems would not even allow a vote on the Repub position.
That said I am very very angry at the Repubs. They said no more new deficit spending, and all new spending had to be paid for. Now they buy the signature of the President and the votes of Democtrats by loading up a tax bill with PORK. How dare they. I will never vote for the lying Repubs again.
Time for Rick Santelli to run on the REAL Tea Party ballot. Kick em all out including the Repubs.
