  • Unemployment extension passes!

    Huzzah! And it's the Senate version, 13 additional weeks everywhere in the US! YAY!



    Oh that is a load off my mind. I'm down to my last week of unemplyment.

    Gonna go file my extension tomorrow.

    At the last minute, the Dem's sponsored a bill to extend benefits to 26 weeks. While taking a year off with pay might be nice, I'll take the 13 weeks now and worry about the next 13 in three months.




    Hurray for the internet, which passed the news along and created an underground movement to embarress the Republicans into passing the extensions. Democracy still lives in the US of A.

    Now I want you to do the decent thing and admit that the Republicans are not the smelly evil bastages everyone says they are.

      Why should he do that when it only passed because they were shamed into voting for it?

          What Borris said.


          Okay, they aren't smelly and probably aren't bastards, but they're definately evil.

            My goodness, the Republicans are actually signing onto the Zribbler plan for economic recovery--put more money into the hands of consumers! Next big step: balance the budget.

              Mind you, the Republicans were up against the deadline, too. Hope you can find work soon Che... good luck!

              I still maintain that the plan is too little too late.

                              I always just thought it was stupidity, but then again, I'm often wrong... generally bad, slow and stupid myself
