Boehner insistence on one year; an Opportunity for Obama redemption!

Extending the “middle class” tax for two months would be a sham effort by Washington that will have to deal with in two months, in the middle of election activities. I seldom agree with Speaker Boehner, but I do now, get a year extension the tax-cut and associated items, allowing you an opportunity to deal with taxes in a more comprehensive way after the 2012 election.

Should Reid and the Senate returns to the negotiation table, as they should, President Obama can give instruction to Reid that will bring back the surtax on millionaires and for a change not capitulate. With that on the table it is not unlikely that the GOP will not feel confident enough to reject it and raise the public ire.

Obama, here is your opportunity, get the tax-tax extended for one year, and bring back the surtax on millionaires. Be a leader Mr. President the nation had enough of your capitulation.
