Think Progress has done a little research and discovered that 17 Senators have voted against unemployment benefits extensions despite double-digit unemployment in their respective states. Congratulations, Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, South Carolina and Tennessee: both your Senators have voted against the extensions every time they had an opportunity!
In a sensible world these clowns would be voted out of office on the grounds that they've become Washington insiders unworthy of calling themselves "representative" of anything more than the Republican party.
