Dems were solidly against all of the tax cuts when they were passed. I think they should stick to their principles, come out before Nov and reaffirm their opposition to all the cuts and make it clear that they will not be extended for anyone. Then let the chips fall where they may.

They have already done that....and most Americans agree. They don't want to see our national deficit go up anymore.
An academic thinks we should let the tax cuts expire.
Meanwhile, ACTUAL BUSINESS OWNERS tell Obama and Congress what is needed to begin to restore jobs:

Umm, well Obama and the Dems proposed huge incentives to get small buisinesses to start hiring again, I believe it was even supported by the Chamber....and what did the Repugs do? Filibuster and killed the bill.
The lower rungs spend the money they get trough tax cuts while the upper rungs who already earns alot of money regardles of tax cuts saves most of it instead and spending is what is needed.
Saves it? Where? On a shelf? In a closet? In a mattress? Where do you think that saved money is going?
tax receipts are down, because people are out of work and not earning money to be taxed.....do you think that letting the cuts expire, which will make more jobs go away, is really a smart thing?????

One word for you: PayGo
Obama and the Dems wouldn't pay for it. Republicans are calling on Obama and the Dems to be truthful. Guess what? Obama and the Dems can't even hold themselves to their own PayGo rule.
