Obama May Do Social Security Reform During Lame Duck Session, Senate Democrats Worry
Monday, September 24, 2012
With Bush's Obama's tax cuts for the rich, the left was willing to compromise on all of the tax cuts. Obama's deal on the tax cuts for the rich wind doesn't cover the 99ers and increases taxes on the poor. The payroll tax holiday sets Social Security and Medicare up for destruction -- There were and are better ways to get money to the poor and middle classes.
The left comes to the table already having compromised our positions. On everything. All the time. We have done the compromising for more than 30 years.
And even after we compromise, after we have deals, Republicans renege and Democrats still cave some more. One example of that isthe Capps amendment. That was the compromise AGREEMENT on abortion in Obama's healthcare legislation.
In the end, with the Stupak amendment and Obama's executive order, Obama and Democrats have put us firmly on the path of ending all insurance coverage for abortions.
Read this, too.
Fairly soon, Roe and overturning it is going to be moot with all that Republicans have managed to get Democrats to "compromise" on, making getting an abortlon impossible. As it is now, you can't get an abortlon in 92 percent of the counties in the US.
