Why doesn’t Mitch change the senate rules to eliminate the phony filibuster?
1. He totally Agrees with everything Obama is doing

2. Harry Reid wouldn’t like it

How does a revenue bill go from the Senate to the House? I thought revenue bills originated in the house.

That’s what I wonder. Could a ‘rat majority do more than the freakin traitors who have the majority now?

We have to see what’s going to happen with the injunction on his immigration decree. It’s not over yet.

We tried, the Vichy GOP fought conservatives harder than they will ever fight the rats. The fix is in.

When you hear someone say, “We have 54 Senators”, just remember the real number is 31.

I hope your scenario is correct. It brings me down to read all the posts that we’ve buckled before the thing plays out.

Four Democrats voted YES on motion to move to bill curtailing Pres Obama’s 2014 immig exec action:
Donnelly
Heitkamp
Manchin
McCaskill

**Trying to find out which GOP voted NO for this crap, the usual suspects, i’m sure.

LOL!

Why on earth would he do that!? Doing such might actually cause the amnesty part to have to pass!

Mitch McConnell is a brilliant tactician. He ought to run for General of the world.

Never have I seen such a brilliant chess master of FAIL!

But if you’re a Muslim in a hijab, Abercrombie & Fitch can be forced to hire you. Religious freedom only works for Muslims.

I think thatis right, but that is why Reid was making noises about not backing off the “filibuster” until he had a commitment from Boner to pass the bill without amendments. So in theory, Boner has already agreed to this. I hope I am wrong and Boner grows a set of stones to go along with, well, himself.

Toomey........Oh boy.....Santorum was 100 percent correct to kick this guy to the curb. Not to say Spectur was better but Santorum knew this guy was going to be for gays in the military and homeland security funding without anything on illegal aliens. He is smarter than the voters apparently.

it is sickening to watch. John Cornyn is a traitor to conservatives.I was shocked at that one. The house just wobbled. Hold on to your hats.

After all the GOP victories in the last election it is still Harry Reid who runs the show.

Until we decide to kick the GOP to the curb there will be no stopping the Marxist takeover of our republic.
