You must be avoiding even the ObamaNews corps releases.
News flash:
============
Speaker of the House (John Boehner), has put forward compromises to Obama's team (Tim Geitner, etc.), last week.
Still, no response of any kind, from the President's team.
As Speaker of the House (Republican) said, there is no progress in the negotiations yet, because the President has not put forward anything that he will negotiate.
It's obvious that Obama is just letting us sweat to put pressure on the Republicans.
Naturally, the Speaker of the House, will cave in a bit, if he's doing the normal thing. He's not a real fighter, AND he does not want to see us go over the fiscal "cliff". Obama knows this, and is using it to get what he wants with no compromising on his part, if possible.
So hold onto your wallets, folks. More fun taxes (they call them "revenues" instead), will be taken from you, to support our fat piggy gov't.
