		<description><![CDATA[ Clarifying moments are rare in politics.

		<description><![CDATA[ Congress is ignoring that it has only nine months to head off sequestration and the economic “perfect storm” looming in December. Remember, it’s an election year, which probably means a lame-duck session in December will have to pass fiscal 2013 appropriations bills wrapped in a continuing resolution, raise the debt limit, and deal with the required $1.2 trillion in debt reduction over the next 10 years — or pass some tax proposal that would replace the Dec. 31 end of all the George W.

		<description><![CDATA[ Every estimate you’ve heard of who is being helped and who is being hurt by the tax cuts proposed by the various Republican presidential campaign is telling you, at best, only half the story.

That side is at least as important as who gets the tax cuts, but it’s almost always ignored.

		<description><![CDATA[ House Speaker John Boehner gave a spirited reply when asked recently about whether his party’s resistance to middle-class tax cuts risked making Republicans appear to be lackeys of the rich. “I’ve got 11 brothers and sisters on every rung of the economic ladder, all right?” Boehner said . “My dad owned a bar.
