"He would not do it on legislative items"

Hmm?

Menendez: Senate could vote on immigration reform before July 4
"Nonetheless, he noted the need for the Democratic-controlled Senate to obtain a "pretty substantial" vote - at least 60 votes - to block any obstructionist efforts by opponents of reform."

how can he get the rules changed if it takes 60 votes for cloture to bring it up for a vote?

Sounds good to me. Set Dingy down in the middle of Nevada and nuke him. That sure would “make the world a better place.”

A LOT of Republicans are rooting for him.

If this had been done before Bush-43, we’d have OUTSTANDING JUDGES on the Circuit Courts as well as drilling in Alaska, Social Security reform and many, many, other good things.

So, GO GET’M HARRY!!! We will win in the long term, and your side even knows that.

I hope Reid does it. Democrats go out of there way to filibuster one judicial nominee after the next, with absolutely no political repercussions whatsoever. If Reid does it, the next Republican President will do it too. Then we’ll get the judges we need in the right places.

Watch “Casino”,a film that tells the true story of the Mob’s control of a Las Vegas casino.Harry Reid is featured in the film,played by Dick Smothers,and he’s shown to be a slimey,crooked punk.As a Nevada State Senator he was the chairman of the State of Nevada’s Casino Control Commission.He was probably picking the pockets of fellow grade schoolers relieving them of their lunch money.

Hahaha. I don’t think you’d risk it, Harry. But I dare you. I’m sure it won’t worsen the growing image your party has as a corrupt power-grabbing band of thugs.

I’d suggest that by July things will be at such a stage that Dingy Harry trying to bring this back up will be a distant memory.

Mark Levin recommended the GOP Senate do this exact same thing in 2005, in his book and on his radio show.

Do it Harry! You will be sorry when the Republicans are back in majority in the Senate one day. We will to.....cycles back and forth. Can you imagine his squealing when we only need 50 votes to overturn Obamacare and abortion. Be careful what you wish for their Harry.
