If I am reading the article correctly this bill would mostly do three things: it would extend unemployment benefits to those without a job. It would extend some tax cuts and the tax credit for first time home buyers and it would remove the 75 million dollar cap on what oil companies must pay to families and small businesses affected by an oil spill.

These all seem pretty reasonable to me.

I suppose you could just let the tax cuts expire, let those who on unemployment figure it out for themselves and keep the cap in place to limit how much BP has to pay out to all those that they have fucked over, but that sounds like a pretty bleak option.

He is blaming the republicans for blocking the bill. They are blocking it because they say it adds too much to the deficit.
