Here we go again, the Teapublicans earn their "Scrooge" title by at first tacking on junk amendments to the continuing Payroll Tax bill. This didn't work so they tried a new a new trick, They pretended to create a "new" compromise bill between, Harry Reid and Mitch McConnel for a two month extension of The Payroll Tax Cut and the continued payments to the unemployed. It passes The Senate but the Teapublican controlled Congress rejects it. Oh hum, so what else is new? Just another dastardly trick from the Teapublicans, honed by their expertise since the Nixon presidency!
I don't believe a word they say until it's signed, sealed and President Obama has signed it into law. Yet, some (ignorant, economically 99%) person still backs the Teapublicans? I think we need to hire deprogrammers to save these delusional people! I can understand the super wealthy who think the Teapubicans have their back,supporting them. But the Middle class and the poor? Their only hope to better their situation is THE DEMOCRATS!
The is time the wealthy have cut off their nose to spite their face. When the Middle class and the poor have less take home pay from their pay checks, they will have less money to shop at more expensive department stores, like Macy's, Bloomingdales,and Nordstroms because they will have less discretionary income! The poor will have Walmart and Kmart as usual but they will have to cut down shopping at Sears for the same reason. Those people whose unemployment benefits will cease can't buy much of anything but food and pay their rent so that harms all stores.
The Teapublicans have further damaged this already weak economy! We have to change the minds of our families and friends and see that we get out the broom and sweep the Teapublicans out of office! We also have to work for keeping Barack Obama as our president. Get to it!
