Yo! You! Military moochers. Before you go into battle, I need to tax you some more.....because Harry Reid and Barry Obama just texted me.....they want $25 Billion for a temporary extension of unemployment checks. So pony up!
Cut the Vets benefits, but toss “free” money at the bums who won’t take a job after 2 years. I am amazed at the dispicable immorality of our government.
so the socialist D leadership is going to spend more of our tax money to create more unemployment ... instead of allowing the economy to recover and provide real jobs for people.
we just HAVE to vote these destructive people OUT in 2014!
pray for America!
If the Republicans had anything between their ears they’d block this unless its coupled with the Pipeline.
Fox is reporting that Obama has gathered a group of long-term unemployed “victims” for a “scathing speech and photo op” moments after this was defeated.
Pubbies not taking the bait apparently.
King O also blamed Bush for the current jobless situation. The recession was so bad, people are still unemployed.
I don’t think the votes are there in the HOuse unless they can figure a way to pay for it.
Why is a spending bill originating in the Senate?
“This is all borrowed — every penny of it,”
Yay! Free money!
Voters love free money, and the media gets a 5 to 10 per cent cut of it in advertising costs. What could go wrong?
What’s another 6 billion on top of 88 trillion (that’s trillion with a T) that isn’t reported properly. We are at least 88 trillion in debt already...
“This is all borrowed — every penny of it,” Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., told Fox News.
And THIS bill is different from the other UNFUNDED HUNDREDS of OTHERS passed through the years - as well as UNFUNDED 0bamacare?
Our leaders are insane! I secede from The Union! From here on out, the 1.2 square miles I own is my own country! Flag to follow!
I thought not extending these benefits was the ONLY concession we GOT from the Government Shutdown?
Aarrgghhhh!!!!!!!!!!
Politicians continue to endorse their stupidity.
So if this is a spending Bill then how can it originate in the senate?
IMO, they need to grow up and move on. You may have been a former government worker making 70k and could find you are actually hardly qualified to make minimum wage in the real world.
Time to name names:
“The measure, (was) sponsored by Republican Dean Heller of Nevada and Democrat Jack Reed of Rhode Island
Five Republicans joined Heller to support moving forward on the legislation — Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire, Dan Coats of Indiana and Rob Portman of Ohio.”
Unemployment benefits have now morphed into a government entitlement.
They will never be curtailed.
Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H.
Sen. Dan Coats, R-Ind.
Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine
Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska
Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio
The only people that didn't see this coming are those w/ their heads up the @ss:
ie the GOPe.
If anybody in congers was actually interested in creating jobs then Boner and the slugs could include approval for the Canadian oil pipeline in the unemployment extension bill. You figger they are gonna extend but doing it without getting something from the Kenyan would be just plain incompetent——but that wouldn’t be news either, I guess?
