Well, the budget isn’t exactly make-believe if you consider that it deals with taxation. Which, logically, should be a lot more contentious than spending.
Thats a big reason for Reconciliation: preventing filibusters of new tax policy. And it was used to great effect to ram through one of the most significant tax policies in US history: Obamacare.
To: tanknetter
Yup, who could forget 0bamacare. But most reporting didn't really detail (probably intentionally so as to keep the peasants from revolting) the Senate rules with regard to Reconciliation. Whether it's tax policy or appropriations that permitted 0bamacare to use Reconciliation was never made clear.

When will Mark Levin realize that McConnell would suspend the filibuster if he wanted to oppose 0bama and amnesty.
McConnell already knows what to do, he just doesn’t want to do it.
Levin better wake up and realize that McConnell and his ilk are the enemy.

We need a bare knuckle brawler in the Senate and instead we have an elderly, saggy, turkey-neck.
To: mitchell001
The Senate wimp would like to see amnesty go through. After all he IS bought and paid for by the big money donors who also want cheap labor.

There are a LOT of things Republican senators SHOULD do...
We shall see.
To: mitchell001
Of course they should changes the rule. That’s what the Democrats would do. But our guys are a bunch of cowards and blowhards. They’ll crap in their pants a little and blame everyone else for the smell.

Do whatever it takes. But there are no balls in charge in the Senate.

Our GOP Senators
There’s your first mistake. They are not OUR GOP Senators, they belong to The Cheap Labor Express. They have been bought and paid for and will deliver amnesty for their masters.
Their only trick is to make us think they resisted.

Mark Levin is right. Mitch should have already done this, passed the original House bill and plopped it on Barry’s desk. Let him shut down the DHS to save his illegal activities. This would be a lot easier for the GOP to defend.

I may not understand the ins and outs of this, or just naive, but why wouldn't the GOP Senators suspend the filibuster to pass DHS without Amnesty? Why won't they fight and do what's right? Obama's 'executive amnesty' is unconstitutional, illegal, tyrannical, flies in the face of the rule of law and is a terrible precedent. This seems so, Okay, suspend the filibuster, pass DHS without Amnesty. . next issue. . . We have the votes, so let's do it and send it to the President.
Mark just said, "We've had a silent non-shooting coup. . We've already been fundamentally transformed and it's unraveling at breakneck speed into something truly frightening."
Mark on fire today. I recommend all FReepers listen to his audio rewind: http://www.stationcaster.com/player_skinned.php?s=2591&c=10771&f=4072033
