被挥霍掉的总统职位
By Victor Davis Hanson
奥巴马的说法是，他继承了记忆中最糟的摊子，并且一直以来受到党派国会的阻碍 -
而同时发生的一切事情包括从最新的ATM技术到日本海啸都在背叛他。但这些说法是不
是真的呢？
美国总统奥巴马进入办公室的时候支持率超过70％。约翰·麦凯恩的竞选班子已经贫血
，而且在那时看来, 他几乎是注定要输给这位全国首位非洲裔总统提名候选人的。
1%的巨头在那时纷纷表示欢迎奥巴马。Steve Wynn, Donald Trump, and Mort
Zuckerman现在炮轰奥巴马，但四年前，他们似乎发现他就是拯救大家于乔治·W·布什
的救世主。Christopher Buckley 和后来的Christopher Hitchens 公开支持他。共和
党人像科林·鲍威尔，麦克莱伦和Doug Kmiec在公众面前给与他支持。我们大家的印象

only on income above $1 million.
As the high-stakes showdown over the fiscal cliff continues, Republicans and
Democrats continue to debate how much the richest Americans should pay in

Pelosi Chases Republican Tom Marino Across House Chamber
In an unusual breach of decorum, even for the divided Congress, House
Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi chased Rep. Tom Marino across the House floor,
taking offense at comments by the Pennsylvania Republican during debate on
the border funding bill Friday night.
“We don’t have law and order,” Marino began as he wrapped up his comments

成为防止联邦政府再次关门大战的前线。白宫星期三说，它将在下个星期发表框架文件

以下为左右这场移民大辩论的11人：
白宫幕僚长凯利（John Kelly）
川普政府前国安部长凯利在指导严厉移民执法方面最近成为白宫最有影响力的声音。
这名白宫幕僚长影响力上涨受到国会山保守派的欢呼，而保守派对川普的冲动型谈判风
格表示质疑，他们担心川普为了达成交易而不顾细节可能在DACA协议中对民主党做出太
多妥协。
凯利被看做整个谈判过程中保守声音的代表。尤其是在川普拒绝共和党参议员格拉厄姆
（Lindsey Graham）和民主党参议员德斌（Dick Durbin）的方案后，凯利在气氛紧张
的白宫会议上的作用尤为关键。
移民改革人士和民主党议员都认为，凯利正在引导川普抛弃加强执法力度不足的任何

國會民主黨領袖13日表示，國會將採取立法行動，延長中產階級減稅法令，以免扼殺經
濟復甦的力道。
眾院民主黨領袖侯耶爾(Steny Hoyer)預期，眾院將在年底中產階級減稅法過期前，延
長該法，但他同時表示，富裕人士的減稅措施，並無急迫性。
侯耶爾說：「此時的要務是刺激經濟，因此不宜增加中產階級、和中等收入家庭的稅負
。」
歐巴馬總統和民主黨國會議員一直強調，對於年收入不滿20萬的個人和不到25萬的夫婦
不加稅。
侯耶爾表示，國會眾院歲出入委員會(House Ways and Means Committee)主席李文(
Sander Levin)和參院財政委員會主席包可士(Max Baucus)，正在就法案的內容和時程
進行討論。有關減稅法令的立法將由這兩個委員會主導。
侯耶爾說：「國會的目標是在減稅法過期前，完成延長該法的程序。」
包可士表示，國會議員考量的細節包括股息和富裕家庭的稅率。他說：「國會至少會延
長中產階級減稅法。」
