mcconnell no friend of the working man

I think this doofus is the biggest lowlife in the Senate. He firmly stands behind making the bush tax cuts permanent but he's going to quibble about an extension of UI benefits, which is a miniscule compared to the cuts. His Whininess is so worried about adding the UI extension to the deficit.

Why do people vote for schmucks who work against their best interests? mcconnell might as well just come out and say that the working man doesn't matter. He's the gift that keeps on giving to those who don't need it.

"After thwarting efforts to raise taxes on America’s top earners, Sen. Mitch McConnell, the Republican leader, predicted Sunday that Congress would retain the expiring Bush-era tax cuts for a limited number of years and might also extend unemployment benefits as part of a compromise with the White House...

...Mr. McConnell, interviewed on the NBC television program “Meet the Press,” flatly confirmed the outlines of that compromise. “I think we will extend unemployment compensation,” he said. The debate among lawmakers, he said, is “not about whether to do it but whether to pay for it as opposed to adding it to the deficit.”

...He would prefer to make the tax cuts permanent because the current, 10-year-old tax rate “is appropriate,” he said. But “the president won’t sign a permanent extension.”
I have named him Scrooge McConnell!
 
In #6 you said "mcconnell is no friend of those who won't work". In other words, those on UC are choosing not to work.

Of course, I know what I posted...its plain you misunderstood it...and it seems you still do...notice the words..."its more like" ???

And you still haven't offered an opinion on why repubs are worried about UC adding to the deficit, but not the tax cuts.

There are no tax cuts....the tax rates have been in place for at least 6 years.....no one is cutting taxes....the only change in the works is Obama raising the taxes for everyone if he refuses to leave things as they are....or raising taxes on the "rich"....
There are no cuts......no cuts...no cuts...no cuts...no cuts.....
read that again if it still didn't sink in...

What is being talked about in NEW SPENDING....we already spend too much and pinheads want to spend more....NEW SPENDING.....
NEW SPENDING will add to the deficit unless we have equal cuts to offset the NEW SPENDING.....we don't need to SPEND MORE....

Now thats plain enough for even a six year old....sooooo,,,,,
