Bill Kristol Argues For Allowing Bush Tax Cuts to Expire

Says the GOP should stop standing up for "a bunch of millionaires"

Weekly Standard Editor Bill Kristol said on Sunday that the Republican Party should stop defending "a bunch of millionaires" and let the Bush-era tax cuts expire for the wealthiest Americans.

"It won't kill the country if we raise taxes a little bit on millionaires," he said on Fox News Sunday. "It really won't, I don't think. I don't really understand why Republicans don't take Obama's offer to freeze taxes for everyone below $250,000."
