Lone senator blocks unemployment benefit extensions

[outby43]

Rep. Jim Bunning (dickhead)

Bunning muttered "tough s---" as Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Oregon, criticized Bunning's stance on the package

LOL I love you guys never reading shit and spinning like tops...

For his part, Bunning maintained on Friday that if all senators could agree that the benefits are so important, then they should find a way to pay for them.
"If we can't find $10 billion somewhere for a bill that everybody in this body supports, we will never pay for anything," he said

sounds pretty reasonable to me, wasnt it obama that said he was going to make congress "pay as you go"?
