I just think it sucks that that sort of deal had to be struck at all, that the Democrats couldn't just go ahead and extend the unemployment benefits all the while telling the Republicans to shove off about the tax cuts.
But again, ideal world, yada, yada, yada. It's just frustrating to know that rich people will continue to get richer while important social services get cut (and which will thus lead to people relying more on things like unemployment benefits and other federal aid that is still left, and on and on the vicious cycle goes. Funny how the Republicans' actions inadvertently wind up causing the very things they rail against to keep going).Angela
I'm getting frustrated myself. If this keeps up, the Republicans won't have to run or worry about taking back the White House. They can just sit back and let Obama give in to their every request.
The public is at fault here, at least as much as the politicians.
This ^ is also a good point.
