Most people that vote, don't read or educate themselves on what is really going on. I might be a little bias but reading the article what I see is that the Republicans are saying they want to bring the tax issue to the floor first. They want to bring that to the floor before talking about a push to repeal the military's policy banning gays from serving openly, or the bill giving illegal immigrant students and military members legal status and an extension of long-term unemployment benefits. I agree the Tax discussion is the top priority. There is a reason (Taxes/Spending) why the Senate picked up so many Republican seats and they should be heard. They want to get to what they think is the top priority discussed first. In that discussion I'm sure there will be compromise. If an Independant looks at the headline and doesn't read the story, they won't get the whole picture in my view.

Again, maybe I'm bias....
