I was all prepared to draft up a blog entry that fire-bombed the Obama-GOP compromise on the Bush tax cuts, extension of unemployment payments, and the lot of it when I saw this post by Steve Benen over at Washington Monthly........hmmmmm.
Maybe I should hold off on my condemnation? It's rather unlike me to shut my mouth just when I'm poised to shout......but hey, why not?
Consider it my holiday gift to you.
Thanks for sharing. I am still upset at the priorities given to protecting extreme wealth in this country (often gained while the poor get poorer), but this chart was actually quite calming. Not to mention the fact that the writer mentions the Republicans' willingness to protect the super wealthy at any cost. :-)
