This is just political negotiation. The republicans want this, the democrats want that, you scratch my back I'll scratch yours.

Dont take it personal, if the roles were reversed the Democrats would be doing the same exact thing......

Do I think the Democrats are motivated by altruism in their pursuit to extend the unemployment benefits? For the most part, no; they're only interested in doing what it takes to keep their seats, just like the Republicans.

But at least the Democrats are making the unemployed a priority, as they should. The only source of income just got cut off for people who don't know how they're going to pay their bills this month, much less buy Christmas presents for their kids. Tax cuts can wait.
