Al Franken supports Obama tax cut deal

Shades of the Iraq War vote, when Dem after Senate Dem talked against and voted for. Deeds, folks. You’re about to pull the bolt on the last lock on the door; the very time we live in calls you out.

Franken:

“Extending the Bush tax breaks for the super-wealthy will explode our deficit over the next two years without doing anything to help our economy.”

Franken worries … If [permanent extension for the cuts] happens, “we’re in big trouble,” Franken writes.

And:

“I am taking the President at his word that he will fight harder to put an end to these wasteful tax breaks in 2012 than he did in 2010.”
