Arrogant Senator, Jim Bunning

Let me say that I don't use this place as a stage for my political views, however I was outraged by the arrogance of Senator Jim Bunning (r) when he decided to block a jobs bill for funding for the unemployed.

The audacity to keep those in need waiting while your political view is heard is so selfish. Millions are unemployed and many need that money to pay for the basics of life, and to hold that money back due to selfish political jockeying is anti-American and anti-Christian.

I had to speak out against such arrogance, such lack of caring for your fellow man, and such political maneuvers to take food from those in need just to make a point.

Shame of Senator Jim Bunning and shame on those who support him.
