This is Dems ‘secret’ weapon to put the GOP back on the defensive, Dems on offensive. They been talking about it on MSNBC for > two weeks now.
But Republicans could turn it back on Dems by pointing out that it is Dems bragging about how good the Obama economy is.
Dems are claiming the economy is good while demanding these endless benefits because of bad economy.
I thought this was a BI-PARTISAN budget deal? And HArry Reid accepted it int he senate, where democraps are in control?
The stupid party (the GOP) will probably apologize and offer more money... after all, they gave up ‘sequester’ to look good
The problem with opposing this is, our side is not on the side of American jobs.
Bring back American jobs.
We have been exporting our own jobs now for more than an entire generation. Start bringing them back.
Then we wouldn’t be worried about this.
I have never drawn unemployment benefits but seems to me the republicans enjoy being portrayed as the “bad guys” on a lot of issues. With all the waste in government, why stick their necks out on something that matters to real people? Dang, just make Odumbo cut out his vacations and that could pay for unemployment.
There wouldn’t be such inequality if Obumbles hadn’t spent this economy into the ground the past five years. He and his coven of Leftist professors have gown a real-life unemployment rate of over 11%, if the labor force was counted as we did when he came into office. Dumping millions off the rolls didn’t mean that the long-term unemployed disappeared, of course, so now BO wants a permanent unemployed class paid for by the shrinking paychecks of the employed.
If they don’t have unemployment, how are they going to pay for Obamacare?
Pray America is Waking
I’m all for extending unemployment benefits to Obama and the rest of the democrat leadership indefinitely if they would agree to step down.
If the obama economy is so great, why are people unemployed for over 99 weeks six years into his residency?
Obama is lowering taxes on corporate taxes to 28 percent. I wonder if this is his way of paying for the minimum wage increase.
Why do we need to extend unemployment when the economy is so rosy?
Ignore the people who lost or can't afford their health insurance because of Obamadoesn'tcare.
Republicans must demand approval of keystone pipeline and open up all areas to drilling/fracking etc create thousands of American jobs and deal a severe blow to the Middle East in one fell swoop but Obama and his leftist wackoos will have none of it....
