This particular bill is not meant to be signed into law.
The purpose of this bill is to put Senate Republicans who are in blue or purple states in hot water with their state voters, or possibly their primary voters, put them on defensive to give Dems an edge in 2014.
Reid, Obama and the rest at MSNBC been plotting this all though the break.
Make GOP Senators vote on stuff that polls popular that Dems like, and conservatives dont, give-aways.
just political.
It goes :”These people are not lazy. They work hard EVERY day looking for a job (two years straight!). They need that money for food for their kids and rent and for gasoline to go on job interviews. I hope our Republican colleagues stop their attacks on these victims and show some compassion for their situation. Its the humane thing to do”
I have to say the republicans need to learn how to pick their battles. They screw the veterans, which pisses off conservatives. Then they vote against extending unemployment benefits, which pisses off the liberals.
When you consider the big picture, $6 billion bucks ain’t sh*t. In fact, they should all say “Ryan saved us a little more than that over 10 years, so, no big deal. We will vote to keep giving checks to the hard working men and women who are looking for work in this lousy Obama/democrat economy. But we will fight tooth and nail to make GM pay for it. They owe the taxpayers $10 billion.”
