President Will Veto Fiscal Cliff Bill Unless Rich Get Tax Hikes

[txradioguy]

Go for it, douchenozzle.  I agree with Gina, I think you're bluffing.

I think if he loses...when he loses...he'd purposely not sign the bill just as one final Eff You to America for sending him back to Chicago.

Then Boehner needs to keep the HOR in session for at least 10 days after it's sent to him. Don't give him the pocket veto.

I agree...but the problem is that Obama's already shown that he'll randomly declare Congress in recess to get what he wants.

Problem is, he can't.  At least problem for him.  Senate, OTOH, will still be under Reid's control until at least January 3rd.

But if he does, it'll show the Dems for the bitter hacks and sore losers they are, like we knew different.

[DumbAss Tanker]

Yeah...the consequences are all on him if he does pull a veto, either real or pocket.  Basically this would mean he would have to knowingly take responsibility for the consequences if he did that, and we all know he has done absolutely everything he could to avoid that in every other thing he's done so far.  The closest he's come is swooping in to take credit when some things went right in spite of him, once it was clear they actually worked, but other than that, nothing.

If you think you are poor now, just wait until Jan, not only will the tax rate go up, but the payroll tax is set to return to its normal rate.

Larry Kudlow said today that if Obama doesn't get the tax hikes for the rich all taxes will go up, and the Democrats will blame the Republicans even though they secretly want to raise everyones taxes and are glad Republicans are going to obstruct.

Gee, that sounds like... politics.

Taxes go up in 2013 for 163 million workers...

A temporary reduction in Social Security payroll taxes is due to expire at the end of the year and hardly anyone in Washington is pushing to extend it. Neither Obama nor Romney has proposed an extension, and it probably wouldn't get through Congress anyway, with lawmakers in both parties down on the idea.

After the Magic Negro loses this election, I look for him to f..k up things as much as possible just for spite. Plus, you have retards like slow Joe, Reid and Pisslosi as willing partners.

[Freeper]

The worst part is, no one is talking about this. So in Jan when we all get that first paycheck there is going to be a case of massive shock throughout the country. If 0bama loses then the dems will crow and say, "See Romney raised your taxes".

Frankly, the whole SS "tax cut" witholding reduction was a vote-buying scheme anyway, and never should have been allowed.

Just means SS goes broke that much faster.

Oh it was nothing more than another gimmick. The funny thing is not that long ago that $40 was the most important thing in the world, now 0bama is strangely silent on the matter.
