NP - Sign Ant- Obama-GOP Tax Cut Petition

[David Morris]

It looks like (and follows his pattern of) capitulation.

Stephen Colbert last night celebrated the White House's compromise on
extending the Bush-era tax cuts, saying he "cannot wait to create all
those jobs."

"We rich folks wouldn't have our tax cuts if (President Barack Obama)
wasn't willing to fight all the Democrats who want him to fight the
Republicans," Colbert added.

He also applauded Obama's past efforts to reach across the aisle and
work with the GOP, but admitted that bipartisanship agreement is
probably a lost cause.

"Mr. President, face the facts: Republicans just aren't that into
you," Colbert said.
