Did you see the photo with Obama having his hand on Cantor's shoulder, and McConnell is glaring so hard his eyes are about to pop out of his face? Man, that guy hates Obama.

Naw, there will be no compromise from the GOP. They are not changing their stripes to do something different now. They were all over the news this morning saying they will not compromise a lick.

I did get some small joy from telephoning McConnell's office this afternoon (he's my senator) and leaving the message with the staff that I consider his actions over the past two years terribly obstructive for the country, and today's historic blockage of extending federal unemployment extensions in the face of 9.6% joblessness was the last straw. Told the staff he obviously doesn't care about the thousands of people here in KY that will be foodless and starving within the next week. And he is responsible for deepening the recession and hurting our economy by taking that spending money away. Asshats. I love democracy!

But on a serious note, this is a disaster in KY, we have thousands of unemployed, people will literally be starving. I'll do the good deed and drop off a couple bags of grocery contributions at the food bank tomorrow - their contributions have been skeletal, as the recession is so bad, but the need has never been greater. They are now about to be overwhelmed. These are real people that will suffer. Letting our own starve in America. What have we come to?

I'm sure his staff was impressed.

It needs to be visible. They voted for change. Let them see what their change did.

You cant imagine how bad it is here! I drove over at least 12 dead bodies coming home from the barn today. Kroger is under siege from lynch mobs of hungry unemployed people. People are spontaneously combusting. Dogs and Cats are living together...

Tell us a joke about a Democrat and prove it's not true.
