That's it folk, those Fu*king scumbags GOP..! got there wish!..Life lesson learned!!..Never under any circumstance vote for the GOP again. Keep your head up and good things will happen! Hold these guys accountable wherever you see them and at the polls, Close the thread the bill is dead.
I have a modest suggestion: Hold your own self accountable. The government is not your Daddy.

Unfortunately for us the plan now is to use this against the Republicans at the Polls. If you read the bottom of this times article from 5 minutes ago, the House probally would never have passed it anyway,
The Senate failed to move forward on a three-month extension of assistance for the long-term unemployed on Thursday, leaving it unlikely that Congress would approve the measure soon and dealing a setback to President Obama’s economic agenda.
The vote was 55-to-42, falling short of the 60-vote threshold to break a Republican filibuster effort.
Democrats hope to turn the issue into an election year cudgel and have been blaming Republicans for ignoring people who are out of work. Republicans have balked at that as political smoke.
But even if the Senate had moved forward, getting any extension through the Republican-controlled House was going to be considerably difficult. Speaker John A. Boenher has said he would entertain a bill only if it was paid for and could stimulate job growth.
Some of his more conservative members, who said the extension would only create more debt for future generations to deal with, were even more hesitant.
“The perception that I get from the Senate right now is, ‘Times are tough. We should make times tougher on our kids to make it easier on us, and then feel better,'” said Representative James Lankford, Republican of Oklahoma. “And I think that’s just not a philosophy I’m willing to support.”
I collected for 30 weeks. I only collected 4 weeks of EUC. Its now been almost 6 weeks with no income and the life has been sucked out of me. Im pissed. I cant believe the scum presiding over us turned their backs. I wish I could have a face to face with these mongrels. I'll bounce back I always do but I truly feel for some of you whose circumstances are far worse than mine. Keep your heads up and let this light a fire under your ass. Don't let your mind consume itself. Well wishes to all of you and l'est we forget.
Obama won't over-rule this travesty.. He's not up for re-election again......
