If it is a choice between helping Vets & passing something - Republicans are against it

There is a Veterans Jobs Bill that has bi-partisan support and could be passed and signed.  If it could get a vote.
.
But Republicans (this time Paul Rand and Mitch McConnell both R-KY) have filibustered it until (wait for it), the Pakistan Government releases the Doctor that helped identify Bin Laden from jail.  Because ... well there is no reason except they are afraid passing anything will help Obama.
.
So Veterans, Farmers, our budget - it is all being thrown under the bus by Republicans so they can screw Obama.  The fact that Americans get screwed at the same time - they are hoping no one notices.
.
Assholes.
