So is there ANY possibility we will get tax increases on the rich? Or are we out of luck on that?

[Logical]

Is that even a possibility at this point? Or have the Dems just realized we will never get that at this point?

2. That was a dozen "caves" ago. Maybe under Pres. Sanders.

3. The Bush cuts expire in 1 1/2 years. Why do you need more than that?

[Logical]

5. I assume you are kidding? Sorry, sarcasm is hard to figure out at times here. n-t

7. I'm serious. What's your deal?

[Logical]

10. OK, now I know you are joking.

4. Only if we rise up and tell them so...

The majority of Americans think it's about time, so why shouldn't the rich pay their fair share?

6. Only if we retake the House and get 61 in the Senate in 2012.

Not a chance we get that margin in the Senate, so no.

11. How is that going to pass the House?

12. Where have you been?

Obama caved on that days if not weeks ago. No loopholes touched or tax increases.

13. Not now.

The Bush tax cuts do expire in 2012, though. That's our chance. But, with this debt deal, it's not going to happen.
