The economic recession in America wasn't caused by bad luck; it was caused by bad Republican policies.

By keeping most tax rates at present levels, Obama and the Democrats will claim that they have championed tax cuts for the middle class. ↗

Rather than showing themselves to be an ally to the middle class by ending the AMT or repealing it for years to come, my Republican colleagues refused to include it in today's legislation and America's middle class will surely suffer that choice greatly. ↗
