At a press conference in the Capitol today, Senate Democrats continued to make their push to raise income taxes on individuals, as well as small businesses that file with the IRS as individuals, earning more than $250,000 per year. But Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid couldn't explain why he didn't pass this bill in 2009 or 2010 when Democrats had huge majorities in the House and Senate and could have actually sent it to President Obama to sign into law.
....................
In 2010, President Obama explained his opposition to raising taxes, saying, "I am just listening to the consensus among people who know the economy best. And what they will say is that if you either increased taxes or significantly lowered spending when the economy remains somewhat fragile, that that would have a destimulative effect and potentially you'd see a lot of folks losing business, more folks potentially losing jobs. That would be a mistake when the economy has not fully taken off."
So one of the questions being begged is why now when the economy is even worse than it was in 2010? Another one is did any Democrats notice when Obama used this realistic and proven conservative argument?
Oops! Where are those Death Star plans when you need them?
So is Obama really not that stupid about the economy, he just knows what needs to be said to win an election?

Quiz question for you:
How long did the Democrats have 60 votes in the Senate (necessary to overcome filibusters)?
