My question is answered

Earlier, I wondered if the GOP's sweeping call to freeze today's tax rates for everyone for two years included keeping the estate tax in suspense. 

Apparently, it does.

Here's the key quote:

In recent days, Mr. Boehner has called for extending all of the Bush tax cuts for two years and freezing government spending at 2008 levels. In addition to the lower marginal income tax rates, aides said that Mr. Boehner would like to continue the current moratorium on the federal estate tax, which is also due to expire on Dec. 31.
