Regardless of what you may think of the cuts, or the relative merits of extending them or letting them expire, this is exactly the sort of fence riding strategy that has gotten Obongo into trouble.

Extend them or not.. Just do it or don't.

This kind of legislative limbo is creating stress. People and businesses can't plan, because DC has the entire fucking country tied up in knots.

Exactly. But they'd rather blame the rich for sitting on their money and not spending it in this disasterous Pelosi/nObama/ Reid economy.

Yeah, like there's anything to invest IN today...

What the hell do you do? You never know what's happening next.

It's a legislative nightmare. How would you like to invest in something and then have them fuck you with some stupid decree or program?

It's been 2 years of nothing but one legislative paralysis after another.

They couldn't even pass a fucking budget, but Reid has 4 versions of the "DREAM" amnesty act running through the Senate..

NO AMT fix.. People STILL don't know what their tax rates will be..

And then they wonder why things are so screwed up..

The tyrants have to pay the bills.....

Right, and with the Dims always threatening to take profits away from big business, why would they invest?

No kidding.. then there's the ancillary stuff.. Energy policy is a biggie here.

I mean, who wants to invest in an enterprise (Could be anything.. but some endeavors are more energy intensive than others.. Trucking would be a good example, but even grocery stores would be affected) and see their costs double because Obama wants a green America?

It's like they don't think their actions will have any negative, real world consequences at all.. Like people just mindlessly do stuff for the hell of it and don't stop to figure out if it's profitable, and how profitable, before committing their capital.
