Excerpt:

President Obama expressed optimism in a “framework” for deficit reduction being worked out before Washington disperses for the holidays as he urged Congress to act quickly and extend tax cuts for 98 percent of Americans. “I believe that both parties can agree on a framework that does that in the coming weeks. In fact, my hope is to get this done before Christmas,” he said, flanked by people who the White House said responded to emails asking them how a preserved lower tax rate would help them. Addressing middle class taxes and avoiding the fiscal cliff, President Obama says, "I believe that both parties can agree on a framework that does that in the coming weeks. In fact, my hope is to get this done before Christmas."He said an immediate extension of tax cuts for those Americans would allow Democrats and Republicans to focus on long-term deficit reduction.
