What's worse: someone succumbing to the law or someone breaking the law?
Actually, don't answer that. Stop thinking in terms of temporary benefits and the lowest common denominator, think about living by your principles and reconciling them and our actions to the greater good of society.

Eddie - Bunning voted against Paygo. The only reason he was "standing up for the economy" was so that he could tinkle on it.

Oh and lets not forget that Bunning has also placed another Shelby-style mass hold on all presidential nominees. What a swell, thoughtful guy.

Yeah...the economy suffers from withholding an extension of unemployment benfits...yeah thats the tickets.
God forbid a congressman tries to force to live by the Pay-Go rule they just passed!
Gimme a break. The congressmen was actually standing up for the economy by trying to force congress to deal with its structural deficit problems.
