Dear Mr. President,
Boy, you really did it this time. Not only did you cave in to the Republican No! Party but you even gave them more than they asked for. You actually extended the Bush tax cuts AND gave the rich an additional bonus package of a five million dollar exemption per person on estate taxes plus a 35% top tax rate on the rest. A nice little Christmas present for millionaires. Shades of George W. Frankly, I find this morally outrageous and financially irresponsible. A few hundred bucks a week for the working man and woman in exchange for millions for the rich? I’m afraid Mr. President, you’re a lousy negotiator. Worse, I’m afraid, Mr. Obama, you don’t know how to be president. Either that or you conned us with your slick campaign promise of Hope. The Audacity of Hope. The Audacity of You! The American public voted for a change but we got more of the same. I voted for Hope in 2008. Don’t count on my vote for 2012.
