Americans should be hearing this in their head right now because neither party is going to cut taxes on their largest campaign contributors.

You know, the Bush tax cuts got extended because the republicans threatened not to pass unemployment benefits for millions of people. Of course, they sweetened the deal by letting Obama stop don't ask don't tell.
Who knows how they will black mail him next year in order to preserve the tax cuts.
And, unless Obama grows a pair and conducts an efficient media campaign in which he can put all the blame on the republicans for obstruction like Clinton did back in the 90s then there is no way he is getting out of this mess.
