Just heard an excerpt from a Presidential stump speech, might have been the
STFUSOTU, blaming the Senate Democrats for only extending the payroll tax cut 2 months instead of a year. Man, he was cajoling them to get with the program and pass it for
2 more months a full year. Oh, I guess somehow he thinks the House Republicans were at fault, you know, when they had that steaming turd dropped in the inbox as the Senate closed their full session and went home. And then the MSM went apeshit blaming the Republicans for raising
income payroll taxes* on THE POOR (tm) if they didn't pass the buck on. As I recall, The House wanted to make it a full year but Harry Reid refused to recall the Senate if they made any changes and sent it back. 2 months was not enough time for this stuff to go down the memory hole. Didn't they learn from last years Debt Ceiling hoaxes?
*My initial thoughts when the first payroll tax "holiday" was passed was, golly, the Stupid Party and the Democrats do want Roosevelt's New Deal to go into the red much sooner than later. Boner should have thrown the 2 month bill in the toilet, flushed, and went home too.
Also, it looks like Nancy Pelosi owned
Romney. She has been walking back her "I know what Newt did last summer" comments just as Willard is running ads using Pelosi's statements.
