of course, because Boehner just admitted that tax rates can go up somewhere.

Obama should send him back to his caucus with a big fat NO.

That the very wealthy should be forced to sacrifice only if the poorest, oldest, and least among us are forced to sacrifice even more.

Reducing entitlements has been the number one agenda for the republicans and their bankster friends. This was more important to them than taxes. Every time they are able to take from these programs, it gets them a little closer to their end game.

Again, the middle-class, seniors, and poor will pay for the bankster fraud and theft they alone profited from. And they will get away with the $103 trillion dollars they already stole from their employee pension trust funds.

And if we choose to protest, we will be beaten and arrested by their tax paid riot police. Or worse!
