		<description>&quot;I have the perfect solution. Add the 1.9% millionaires tax AND include the part to allow oil drilling. There you go, the perfect compromise that makes everyone happy. Now, why won’t our representatives do this?&quot;

FYI: BP got the drilling permit for the Gulf.  We win again.</description>

Sounds like a plan to me.  They won&#039;t do it because they exist in a bubble detached from the American people.</description>

		<description>Ya, I&#039;m not too thrilled with Harry Reid for taking the 1.9% tax on millionaires off the table.  He needs to quit being a wimp and fight. Harry Truman and Lyndon Johnson must be rolling over in their graves.</description>

		<description>This shows President Obama is not carried away by politics. 

Damn, I&#039;d shut the government (down as Bill Clinton did) just to verify what Americans already know, that the republicans are a group of &quot;do nothing&quot; politians that will only move off their butts if they feel the truffle eaters need defending.
