4. I believe the difference between the two is Obama's came via the Stimulus on top of the Bush
tax cuts signed into law almost a decade ago.

Middle class taxcuts allowed via the Stimulus won't expire, I believe, but those under Bush will, raising the taxes on the middle class a little.

I say let all Bush tax cuts expire and let the Democrats grow a spine and challenge the GOTP when they shriek "Deficits!!" but have no problem adding to it via tax cuts for those poor millionaires and billionaires.
