A Republican Senate aide familiar with the cliff negotiations tells me the White House wanted permanent extensions of a whole slew of corporate tax credits. When Senate Republicans said no, "the White House insisted that the exact language" of the Baucus bill be included in the fiscal cliff deal. "They were absolutely insistent," another aide tells me. (The White House did not return requests for comment.)

Sure enough, Title II of the fiscal cliff legislation is nearly a word-for-word replication of the Family and Business Tax Cut Certainty Act of 2012.

Obammy just raised Social Security taxes by 2% on the middle and lower classes. Obammy just stabbed all his supporters right in the heart and back at the same time! For somebody earning $50K, that's nearly $40 out every paycheck for ever and ever. Over a year it's a grand, over 45 years of working, that's $45,000 in today's money gone. Remember in the Supreme Court decision of Nestor v. Flemming Social Security is only an income tax and if the Govt can't pay up the benefits, it doesn't have to and you have no recourse.
