Didn't Obama sign the tax cuts we are operating under now? He deserves some credit for that

Actually, I agree; granting the Republicans demands does make him partly culpable.

I just think that you could have said all that in a much more less antagonistic way.

I do see your point, but it often takes a shock for people to question reflexive views.

Republicans didn't just "support" tax cuts: They demanded them then and won't relinquish them now.
