Paul Krugman is an economics professor. Today he won the Nobel Prize in Economics. He writes a column for the NYT.
He, as a learned man, blames the banking crisis on 27 years of deregulation started by Ronnie boy. He especially faults Grahm and Greenspan for the current crash.
He has a Nobel Peace Prize. I knew the reasons, his words just affirm them. Keep trying. I do not wish unemployment on my worst enemy, but ignorance in your case, is bliss

It is critical that the 7 – 800,000 people who have and will exhaste(ed) their 26 weeks and 13 week extention remain supported by the unemployment system.
Remain supported ? then it should kick in now !!!!not 2-3 months from now !!!
Unfortunately it means whatever “they” want it to mean.
I dont like it any more than you do.
We just have to somehow stretch whatever we have left now or miraculously get employment.
If you are paying a mortgage or car loan (if you are lucky enough to still have thoses 2 things) you might be able to defer a couple of months payments and just pay the interest (so you dont lose it all) Garage Sales, Rake peoples yards, handyman jobs, neighorhood babysitting, dog walking service, housesitting etc……
Good speech , just like all the rest of them, still ain’t voting Demorat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
I still am wondering…
Is the House going to abort the HR 6867 bill they already passed to the Senate in favor of a new Stimulus bill?
Does anybody know the answer?
I wouldn’t doubt it, anything to screw the extension up again.
Some people are forever stuck on stupid. A vote for McInsane and Mooselini is a vote for the same old destruction we have had for the past 8 years…in fact worse.

Are you watching Faux News again?
No that’s McSame that screwed around on his first wife with Cindy and others and then screwed around on Cindy too. Get your facts straight.
MC Cain has been a faithful man-Please respect him!
Also, re-elect Pelossi-she is awesome!
Also, re-elect Pelossi-she is awesome!
She is? She screwed up our UIE, read much?
You don’t know much about McCain do you? He left his first wife for Cindy and her fortune. His first wife was in a terrible accident (She was a model) that left her disabled. Johnny Mac caroused around on her, including with Cindy (his current wife). McCain liked Cindy and her fortune, so he dumped his first wife and the rest is history.
Johnny Mac is an amoral opportunist to the max. That’s just scratching the surface.
Blowbama speaks at 1:30 I’m sure it will promises up our asses!!!!!!!!
Stuck on stupid, please STFU.
As i said before, language is getting bad
oh yeah by the way, Walmart still sounds like a good idea
Wish some 1 would ask Nancy Pelosi" What are 800,000 ppl going to do from now until the Stimilus is on the floor!!!!"
3 months from now
on going support for 800,000 that has excauted their EUI
WHEN IS THE ONGOING GOING TO START!!
Correction:

THAT IS THE MOST INTELLIGENT QUESTION I’VE HEARD ALL DAY, AND IF I WAS A REPORTER IN THAT ROOM THIS MORNING, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I WOULD HAVE ASKED HER!! I STILL CAN’T GET OVER THE FACT THAT WE HAD A CHANCE TO GET THIS PASSED 3 FREAKING TIMES. 1) IT COULD HAVE BEEN ATTACHED TO THE BAIL-OUT, 2) IT COULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE VETO PROOF CR, AND 3) BUSH SAID PERSONALLY THAT HE WOULD HAVE INCLUDED UE ALONE, BUT THAT WASN’T GOOD ENOUGH FOR PELOSI. THAT’S WHAT PISSES ME OFF THE MOST. HER GREED!!! SHE IS SO OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY. DOESN’T SHE UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE 800,000 PEOPLE WHO’S BENEFITS HAVE RUN OUT WHO NOW ARE IN THE STREET WITH ZERO AND CAN’T WAIT 3-MONTHS. THAT’S WHAT UPSETS ME THE MOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What was the question? answer?
The way Nancy Plosi was talking ..This bill is dead !!
Darn it ..I’m going to be homeless by the time they get around to another Stimilus Package ..with no guarantte that it will pass!!
Senate needs to pass this bill now!!!!
What channel is all this on?

C-SPAN All he’s doing is campaigning, nothing n for us except billions for the ones that fooled all there’s away!!
