Republicans and a dozen Democratic defectors in the Senate have dealt a defeat to President Barack Obama just days after he pressed Congress to renew pieces of last year's economic bill.
After coming out on the losing end of a 52-45 test vote, Obama's Democratic allies have been forced back to the drawing board in their efforts to extend unemployment benefits for the long-term jobless and provide $24 billion in aid to cash-strapped state governments.

GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD!!!!
Message: CUT SPENDING! DRASTICALLY!!
Yes, that is what they are banking on, but it is going to go the other way, those unemployed are regular Americans, who want good jobs, their cars, vacations, family and love. They will not stand for tyranny!
Despite all the racism in "Black Liberation" thought, it's really about overthrowing Capitalism. The Communists just use race as a means for justifying revolution.
L!......LUV 'EM ALL!
Will the dictator-monster inside Obama appear soon?
Sooner or later?
Yes.
when this hush money runs out the natives will begin screaming...Off with his head. Bullramh can load the numbers but the suffering masses can still vote. Dims are toast.
When the unemployment ends who will they blame? It’s either bread and circuses or some more chinese money to burn until after the mid-term elections. Unemployment can’t go on forever.
And none of them will be getting benefits! Yippee!
I suppose I should defer to you on this but it's difficult given the level of hatred you see at street level. These folks don't care about isms. They just want to kick your ass.
Some will. Not enough, but some can get away with it and will.
Obama will try to create his citizens groups, government funded jobs with more folks under his socialist umbrella. He has bankrupted America and Americans.
“Unemployment can’t go on forever.”.....
Talk to some of the idiots who voted for Obama!
I thought Obama was supposed to pay for my gas?
“He has bankrupted America and Americans.”
With all due respect, we’ve been doing that too ourselves DECADES before Obama came to Power. Not to say he hasn’t expedited the process...exponentially...
The banks are all closed!
Thank you! That smiling picture of Ronnie made my day!
“What’s the end game? “
That’s what I keep wondering.
There are two possibilities:
1. He is just really stupid. That is possible. He does not strike me as an unusually stupid or unusually bright man. I truly believe I could make better financial decisions than he does, easily. But he can call on anyone with economic brains for advice. So I don’t know how much I believe he is this stupid.
2. He is destroying the economy on purpose. Then I wonder, why? Just mindless hatred of America, or hatred of prosperity? Just because he can? To pay off people who will make it worth his while? What?
