GOP may OK tax increase that Obama hopes to block

GOP may OK tax increase that Obama hopes to block: "News flash: Congressional Republicans want to raise your taxes. Impossible, right? GOP lawmakers are so virulently anti-tax, surely they will fight to prevent a payroll tax increase on virtually every wage-earner starting Jan. 1, right?
Apparently not.

Many of the same Republicans who fought hammer-and-tong to keep the George W. Bush-era income tax cuts from expiring on schedule are now saying a different "temporary" tax cut should end as planned. By their own definition, that amounts to a tax increase...."

What a bunch of hypocrites.

They want this to expire, but will keep the Bush Tax Cuts forever.   They really like Grover.

Apparently. I'm tired of their thinking and their logic about crashing the economy.
