It doesn’t look like it’ll pass. Bernie Sanders couldn’t get a repeal of fossil fuel subsidies into it last night to help pay for it, so the usual suspects are choking on the cost. And Senators on the Democratic side are already talking about how they’ll change the bill, literally nickel-and-diming the jobless by cutting the $25 boost to unemployment insurance checks, and pushing back the 19-month extension of the “doc fix” to 12 months. That’s almost certain to come into play, because as Kagro X said, “we all know nothing promotes cooperation on cloture like signaling ahead of time what concessions you’re willing to make when it fails.”<br /><br />With all the uncertainty on the scope of the extenders bill, David Obey has decided to take a hostage. Basically, there will be no war funding until the extenders bill gets resolved.<br /><br />Obey has been central to the fight over education aid and, in an interview, drew a direct link between war funding and progress on domestic priorities.<br /><br />http://news.firedoglake.com/2010/06/16/obey-stops-war-funding-until-jobs-funding-passes/anonynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-8461057291586270112010-06-16T16:24:39.212-04:002010-06-16T16:24:39.212-04:00Were they two distinct and separate bolts of light...Were they two distinct and separate bolts of lightening - or was it just one bolt that arced ?<br /><br />Oh,.. it involves Larry Silverstein,.. no need at all for cumbersome legal technicalities,.. just scribble him out a $12 billion dollar check.
