The hypocrisy is staggering. After insisting Obama extend the Bush tax cuts for the rich, and claiming that letting such expire would be a tax hike, they now want to tax the working class even more! This is typical of Republican underhandedness. You won't hear them clamoring about the evils of taxation on this issue, instead they will spin it that Obama's spending has made it necessary for us all to make sacrifices. All except for the wealthy Republicans that is. Read this link and educate yourself.
