If we just go along with the Republicans and play friendly, they will kindly reward such behavior with open arms and a new spirit of bi-partisan cooperation. Isn't that what's been happening since the beginning? Who would have guessed that being GOP-Lite was Change We Can Believe In?

With just two months until the November elections, the White House is seriously weighing a package of business tax breaks - potentially worth hundreds of billions of dollars - to spur hiring and combat Republican charges that Democratic tax policies hurt small businesses, according to people with knowledge of the deliberations.

Among the options under consideration are a temporary payroll-tax holiday and a permanent extension of the now-expired research-and-development tax credit, which rewards companies that conduct research into new technologies within the United States.
