OMG! Christian extremist! Wait, George W. Bush isn’t president? Oh well, never mind.*

Via NBC News:

In his first public appearance since returning from a two-week vacation, Obama excoriated the argument — put forward by some conservatives — that offering insurance to the long-term unemployed “saps their motivation to get  a new job.”

“That really sells the American people short,” he said.

Making both an economic argument and a “moral case” for extending the benefits, Obama said Americans believe in helping each other in the case of misfortune.

“We know that, there but for the grace of God, go I,” he said.
