A day is plenty long to offer amendments to a bill that has been discussed many times already. Close debate, close the amendments, vote them down then vote on the measure.
Be done with it.
What about amnesty and Obamacare, Mitch? Oh I forgot, your bosses want those.
Go for it Mitch! Of course, “working past midnight” for Mitch McConnell, might mean anytime after 8:45 in the PM, directly after Geritol and Mrs. Pinkham’s Liver Pills.
They all support Obama’s unconstitutional executive action even though it negates their own congressional power. It's as if democrats were a cult.
They are for evil and against American jobs against the keystone pipeline, for invading 3rd world hordes, against individual rights, against freedom, against America. democrats are villains . democrats are for socialism, all voted for Obamacare , for Obama's dictatorial tyranny , and on and on. In addition the media who are all democrats are the most evil.

Mitch is playing small ball.
Obamacare, amnesty, border security, deficit, spending, and executive tyranny should be the priorities.
Past McTurtle’s bedtime ... he won’t be awake.
It’s not like any of them are going to miss the Friday night poker game or the weekend bath house orgy.
Who’s the party of obstruction now?
And I’m threatening to start my own one man NHL hockey team.
