>>> Forced? LOL!!
Obama and his DEM congress extended them. He broke his promise to raise taxes on upper incomes because he is not a leader.

A truer statement was never spoken.

It is one thing to be flexible in order to come to terms with the other party. It is quite another to discard one's core beliefs in order to secure re-election.

What's interesting is that it seems that many Democrats (Obama, Clinton) are now able to do this without the slightest hesitation. This suggests a certain moral bankruptcy that simply wasn't present in the Bush's or Reagan.

Democrat presidents simply have no backbone. And that is, I think, because few Democrats have backbones.

You're flip flopping..... Now you're saying you didn't want those tax cuts extended? And I see you have a friend that also agrees with you... So I guess you like what Obama did, extended the cuts so you could get the Healthcare law through the filibustering wingers....
