Looks like President Obama is going to be played by the Republicans once again. The news this evening (Monday) is that the Republicans will agree to extend the benefits for the unemployed if the Democrats will agree to extend the Bush tax cuts. You know, the tax cuts for the richest 5% of the country??

If this in fact takes place, you have to hand it to the Republicans - they will have played President Obama like a cheap fiddle. I'm so disappointed!!!
