Thry wanted to do a lot....   will they?
 
The Obama administration and most Congressional Democrats want to extend the Bush tax cuts for individuals making less than $200,000 and couples making less than $250,000, but let them lapse for those earning more than those levels.

Republicans and some Democrats (including three senators) are pushing for an extension of all the cuts, and have argued that government revenue would be higher if that happens because lower taxes spur economic growth.

Saud bin Faisal bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud ... (born 1940 in Taif, Saudi Arabia), more commonly referred to as Saud al-Faisal, is the Foreign Minister of Saudi Arabia.
He was appointed to that position in 1975 by King Khalid, and he speaks 7 languages. The world's longest-serving incumbent foreign minister, Prince Saud is well regarded internationally among his peers. He has worked closely with Kings Khalid, Fahd and Abdullah, seemingly surviving the reputed in-fighting of the Al Saud.
Prince Saud is a son of the late Faisal bin Abdul Aziz, King of Saudi Arabia from 1964 to 1975.
