An estimated 1.7 million unemployed Americans were kicked in the teeth today by the Republican party -- again. The extension was filibustered in the Senate, and lost by one vote.

Harry Reid vows to bring it up again for another vote:

@BarackObama #RenewUI I'm physically sick right now. GOP is ridiculous. I can't take this anymore

@HouseGOP I have voted GOP for 17 years, that stops now. #RenewUI ; enough with the games. Representatives should represent not posture

#RenewUI has once again been blocked by Senate GOP. Sociopaths are all around us, but concentrate in one political party. #uniteblue #p2
