Was Obama Serious When He Said We Need to Extend Unemployment Payments for Another Year?

Question by : Was Obama serious when he said we need to extend unemployment payments for another year?
Quote from today’s Washington Times: “States that borrowed billions from Washington to cover skyrocketing unemployment payouts during the recession are now cutting benefits, adding fees, and in some cases, increasing taxes on employers in order to get the cash to repay the loans.”

There are lots of people out there who’ve been looking for work for a year or two, even three. While I feel for their plight, where is the money for the extension going to come from?
Well here’s a shocker, nobody knows where the money is going to come from, me either.
