INSANITY: President Obama Killed Tax Cut Because It Didn’t Help Illegals

President Stompy-Foot recently killed a draft tax cut because the GOP wouldn’t give in to his demands to give tax breaks to illegal immigrants. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you can’t make this up, and what’s worse, our President is breaking the very laws to swore to protect. To quote a wise man: “Don’t look at me. I didn’t vote for him.”

From The Daily Caller:

President Barack Obama quietly killed a draft tax-cut because the GOP leadership wouldn’t agree to his demand that valuable tax breaks be given to millions of illegal immigrants, according to a Politico article about the secret negotiations.

Just before Thanksgiving, “the deal fell apart just as it seemed to be coming together… [because] Republicans worried undocumented immigrants targeted by [Obama’s Nov. 21 amnesty] would begin claiming the credits,” Politico reported.

The GOP leadership’s reluctance to award tax-breaks to illegals suggests top leaders may use the required December budget bill to deny funds to operate Obama’s promised amnesty. So far, GOP leaders have not said if they will block the amnesty funds — despite growing GOP grassroots pressure — partly because Democrats are threatening to block the complete budget if the amnesty is blocked.

The now-dead tax bill, dubbed the “tax extenders package,” is a grab-bag of tax breaks that are usually passed late in every congressional session. If the bill is not passed, businesses and voters will both face tax increases.

This year’s draft bill was expanded to include more tax-breaks for businesses, and was reputedly valued at more than $400 billion over 10 years.

Politico’s report said Democratic senators initially offered to approve the GOP’s demand for business-boosting tax cuts if the GOP agreed to extend the popular Earned Income Tax Credit for poor Americans.

This President’s “my way or the highway” attitude is a severe detriment to this country, and he should be held responsible for every bit of damage done since he took office. As he himself said, he’s not a king, emperor or dicator, he’s a President and as such, has the responsibility to work with Congress, not work around it.
