Tax cut deal passes, heads to President Obama's desk Update: 139 Democrats voted for the deal and 112 opposed it. On the GOP side, 138 voted for it and 36 voted against it. ..........There's a little more. http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2010/12/16/929632/-Tax-cut-deal-passes,-heads-to-President-Obamas-desk I think some of it is stupid and costly with NO return to the economy. I also think that some of it WILL help the economy temporarily .. but NOT long term.... What do you think?
