1. Was it a WPA style Jobs Bill?

:shrug:

[Ohio Joe]

2. The GOP does plenty about unemployment

In fact, they do everything they can to see it is as high as they can get it.

[Tippy]

3. K&R

[Ian David]

4. Weren't there two Democrats who voted with the Repukes?

They SHOULD be on that list, too.

[Ruby the Liberal]

7. Nelson and Tester

:grr:

[Gregorian]

5. You're looking at it all wrong. It's just a matter of perspective.

It's not unemployment they're prolonging. It's the inevitable fact that ultimately they're plan is to make all of us so desperate that we'll work for next to nothing. Then everyone will be employed! Like slaves, but employed.

8. Not to mention

Fewer workers means less tax revenue, which advances Norquist's goal of bankrupting government at all levels, leading to selling of the common infrastructure to private corporations and destroying unions. This is the GOP plan.

6. Um, there are only 47 Republicans (by caucusing party) in the Senate. Who proofs these things?
