Here's my question. The GOP, Tea Partiers and libertarians all recognize that (other than spending) part of the problem is that 47% aren't paying taxes. So why, instead of pressuring Obama to keep the Bush tax cuts for the rich, aren't they pressuring him to get rid of the Bush tax cuts and close all the loopholes, tax credits and seductions to bring down the national debt?
