Senate Votes On Tax Increases

So the US Senate had a vote to (two actually).  The first was to move to a vote on extending tax cuts to middle class American families making $250,000 per year, or less.  That failed.  Then a vote was taken on extending tax cuts to middle class American and families making $1,000,000 per year, or less.

All the Republicans and the following "Democrats" (including and back stabber Lieberman), voted no;

Durbin (D-IL),
Harkin (D-IA),
Rockefeller (D-WV),

This was not good enough, the billionaires can't pay more (the poor guys)!  And none of this is paid for, it will continue to drive the country into debt, while unemployment benefits run out for many people.  It runs out because the Republicans complained that it was not paid for.  Hypocrisy?  Ya think?

I hope America is happy?  Had a good time voting in 2010?  See what we have to look forward to?  Another round of middle class americans (and that is in lower case on purpose) being driven into or closer to poverty, while the rich, just get richer.  Well fucking done, people.  You shot yourselves in the foot, and the limping is just around the corner.  It starts in January 2011.
