Obama: Republicans Went Home For Holidays While a Mother Suffers “Who Needs Help Feeding Her Kids” (leader, economy)

So...we're pretending that he's incorrect, and that republicans didn't actively oppose the extension to unemployment?

ETA? Um, if you guys really believed in your positions, wouldn't you at last attempt to defend them, rather than making threads based on non-sequiturs that fall apart under the slightest glance?

If you put your trust in strangers to take care of your needs you are doomed to face disappointment. Democrat or Republican same animal different rhetoric. Only hardliners are confused.

As they should have. I wonder how many will go out and get jobs now that their UE isn't making it more worth while to stay home?

They called you at home, very first thing ... to see if you could fund it.

No answer.

I would bet one could post same picture with common people sitting at table full of food. this holiday season. That photo must be decades old. Pure spin like many others both democratic and republican. Look for a lot of no go bills being sponsored also with election coming up.

Obama being a hypocrite doesn't bother you a bit, does it? Of course not, you people don't even care when he outright lies to you.

They tried to prevent this but couldn't. They can't vote without those vacationing repubs.

Do you want Obama to make an executive order to overturn what those vacationing repubs passed?

Should I have put an [/sarc] tag at the end of the picture?

Obama EOs everything else he wants that Congress won't give him so why didn't he EO an extension ?
