Breaking News: Friday Dec 7, 2012, 11 am. In typical repeating broken record style, Republican House Speaker John Boehner announced no change in his ridiculous position on income tax rates. He wants tax cuts for his crony supporters, namely, the wealthiest top 2% of wages earners in the country at the expense of our middle class and working poor Americans.

Never in this nation's history has a major political party become so overwhelming supportive of so few -- 2% of the wealthiest citizens -- at the expense of the bottom 98%. The greed and avarice shown by the Republicans is beyond comprehension of average Americans.
