Unemployment benefits extension clears hurdle

Ok What caused the recession?

What did the democrats do in 2007 caused the recession?

Their prescence alone and the fact they were protecting Fanny and freddy. What policies did they do at that time to improve the economy?

If you look at GDP the recession did not start in 2007. In the past if 2 quarters of GDP were negative you were in a recession. That was not the case in 2007. Was this called a recession early to blame the GOP for it?

So the democrats by merely being elected caused the recession, wow the democrats sure have power dont they.

What caused the recession then? What few issues in the US caused the recession? Perhaps the collapsing of the housing bubble, a bubble that was forming in 2003 and really took off in 2004-06. Perhaps the spike in oil prices as well, perhaps the collapse of the banking industry (due in part to the bursting of the housing bubble)

Of course the democrats in 2007 are responsible for a housing bubble that started in 2003-04.
 
So you can now collect unemployment for 2 1/2 years? LOL, wow.

That's not unemployment. That's welfare.

I was layed off in 2002. If they haven't changed it since then, 1 year of unemployment insurance payments equals 6 months of checks. So, 15 mos. is the total amount of time for current recipients.
