Fox is reporting Mitch Mcconnell is working on a deal with Harry Reid on the filibuster.... If this is true I may give up the R next to my name. It means nothing anymore...

[ConservativeMan55]

You got it!!

Again, not every Republican is a conservative but every republican is.

Okay, my hand has been called and I'm revising my statement to "Again, not every Republican is a conservative but many a republican is."

Independent my entire voting life, over 30 years.

[scbison]

Only some minor changes when bills reach the floor and time.. But 60 vote cloture stays...

[Starstruck]

The deal is that the filibuster goes back into effect if the Republicans take the Senate in 2014.

[Arm_Bears]

Anyone who thought that Mitch McConnell wouldn’t cave is seriously disconnected from reality.

Don’t know why the good folks of Kentucky continue to send this loser back to DC.

They are prepping things so they can get an assault weapons ban passed.

Did you ever read what was agreed to, before you posted your thought.. What are you, a mind numb robot.

So after reading the link you post you thing that speeding things thru the Senate, limiting debate and eventually the Congress is a good thing? This is antithetical to what the founders believed and intended.

[ConservativeMan55]

LOL of course.

[elephant]

Well, that is one HELL of a bargin.

[Wyatt's Torch]

Because its a hell of a lot easier for people to instantaneously assume the worst and panic. That is Free Republic nowadays.

[Thane_Banquo]

The filibuster is the antithesis of a democratic, majoritarian body ...

Democratic majoritarianism is the antithesis of liberty.

I’m referring to Webster’s first definition, lower-case “r”.

The Republicans in the Senate give ground every step of the way. I can’t remember the last time they stood up and said NO!

[SaxxonWoods]

Join the Non-Party.

I registered indy in 2007.

[ConservativeMan55]

It’ll get to the point that someone with an R next to their name can’t win an election.. then maybe they’ll learn.

[Vaduz]

It’s the new norm,media approved.

[riri]

Are they all compromised? blackmailed? Promised a seat at the table in the new globalist regime.

No one, I repeat no one could be this cowardly and lacking in self preservation skills. There has to be more to this.

[jrg]

Once we have a GOP prez and senate, this will work to our benefit.

Massive vote fraud will ensure that this will never happen again.

Those who disagree will be sent to re-education camps in China.
