obey: talk, talk, talk, talk, blau, blau, -- blah, blah, blah, yap, yap, yap. the country is sick of it all. they are sick of it all. thank god finally there will be a cease-fire for the moment on the yap, yapping and the talk, talking while the congress actually takes some action to restore unemployment benefits for nearly 85,000 people in my state and over 2 1/2 million americans who are caught up in the partisan delay game that was being paid every day by some of our friends in the other body. . we are told we can't afford this. we hear that from the same people who blew up the economy in the first place with two wars paid for with borrowed money, with two tax cuts primarily aimed at the highest income people in this country, paid for with borrowed money. and with years of economic policies that allowed wall street banks to more of -- morph into casinos because the referee was taken off the field. now they are crying crocodile tears at this late date about the cost of helping folks who are unemployed. and they want us to take actions in dealing with that tha
