Nancy Pelosi: "Simply Immoral" Not to Extend Unemployment Benefits

In a statement, the Democratic leader said it's inexcusable that the benefits will lapse on Saturday, and blamed Republicans for allowing it to happen.

Yeah...those future taxpayers aren't going to be voting for me...screw them!
This woman needs a remedial English course; she uses words without knowing what they mean.
I guess wrecking the economy via the FED and foisting Obeymecare on the nation isn't immoral?!
The other reason link regarding this brings to mind Mencken's statement regarding constant menace of the population with hobgoblins.
Couldn't agree more.
