The Gadfly has always known that GOP Senate Minority (thankfully) leader Mitch McConnell was a gutless, egotistical prick of the most supreme magnitude.
This only confirms The Gadfly's observation:
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) on Tuesday moved to hold long-term unemployment insurance benefits hostage in an effort to delay President Barack Obama’s health care reform law.
As the Senate was set to vote on breaking a Republican filibuster and extend the benefits that had been cut off last month, McConnell came to the Senate floor on Tuesday with a proposal that Democrats delay the Affordable Care Act’s individual mandate for one year.http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/01/07/mitch-mcconnell-to-dems-kill-obamacare-if-you-want-unemployment-benefits/
Yes - because nothing validates one's credentials as a decent human being more than telling one and a half million of your fellow citizens that their unemployment checks, which are probably the only thing keeping most of them housed and fed, are going to be cancelled unless old uncle Mitch gets his political blood lust satiated.
The Gadfly has an idea -- get as many folks to purchase one of these thingymabobs, glue a small cutout of McConnell's turtle-like face on the head of it, and mail it to one of his offices. Perhaps then he'll get the idea. Perhaps -- but it is more likely that he probably wouldn't give a shit since he already knows it himself.
Asshole.
