El Rushbo's Take on the Tax Deal: Republicans Could've Done Better

Michele Bachmann is organizing opposition to the deal and is basically fighting the establishment once again. Her primary argument is that the payments to people who don't work and don't pay taxes are just staggering. There is a continuing redistribution of wealth that's taking place. Now, in one sense, Obama has experienced his first defeat here in his effort to make the country worse off. He wanted a tax increase, and he has failed to get that. Now, we've been taking it in the shorts for two years from this guy, and that has been stopped in this deal. And it happened in the lame duck. Republicans do not run the House; they don't run the Senate; they don't run the White House, so in that limited context it's a good deal. Also, Obama's left is just wildly opposed to this. They are just beside themselves. They think he has totally caved because the rich are not going to experience a tax increase.
