In "Poor Little Rich Girl" by Eileen from the Dec. 9th 2010 post on the blog In The Pink, the author gives an opinion stating that the Democrats in the House of Representatives are trying to stop President Barack Obama’s tax-cut bill from coming to the floor because they are angry with the fact that Obama had a deal with the Republicans. I think that this article's author's intended audience is simply the general population, and not any specific group of people. I think that this article's author's credibility is in check, simply because her take on it matches the Washington Post article about it that she supplied. The argument made is supported by the claim that the House Democrats are mad that Obama struck a deal with the Republicans. The evidence given is that the House Democrats lost the mid-term elections to the Republicans by a considerable margin. Her logic has to do with the tax breaks and how many of the citizens will have it, as opposed to only the rich and powerful. I agree with this opinion because it is telling the truth and offers a valid solution to unemployment in that the tax-cut bill could create over 2 million jobs next year. But I do not believe that the Democrats in the House are “pissed”, maybe just a little unsettled, that Obama struck a deal with the Republicans.
