The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

What gets me is the last round of unemployment being held up by Republicans crying to be more fiscally conservative and touting that the tax credit would be expiring as an example. They filibustered it and left a whole lot of people without benefits for a month. Yes - they caught up but during that month people still have urgent expenses like groceries, gas to get to work, etc. (not to mention rent!)

Now that the unemloyement thing has passed for the moment, where are those Republicans who were saying the tax credit should expire?
