President Obama has reportedly told Congressional Republicans, in a closed-door meeting, that he’s open to more tax cuts as part of his economic stimulus fiscal package, according to GOP Rep. Jack Kingston.
That said, four GOP Senators on the Senate Appropriations Committee voted “yes” on $366 billion of the spending portion of the legislation, meaning that Senate filibuster threats are null and void.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
