After yesterday's news of the parliamentary rules changes in the Senate I'm 100% convinced that the desperate Democrats, intoxicated with power and worried of upcoming losses, will stop at nothing to ensure that their liberal orthodoxy continues to subjugate the nation. They pretend to be 'for the people' yet they don't listen to the people. They tell us how great their ideas are while ramming them down our throats through more and more laws and huge complicated pieces of legislation. It's sickening!
As the Democrats wander off into their own nuclear winter, Harry Reid needs to be called out as the little despot he is. While speaking words like 'bipartisanship' and 'compromise' the man has done nothing to achieve those ends in the Senate. He has only ever considered his own counsel and ideas, and never considered anyone else's. The man has no integrity and is an absolute liberal hack. Reid's Senate tenure will go down as a dark spot in our history, where partisanship ran wild and was nurtured by him and his cronies.
This rules change is probably confusing at best, or meaningless to most if the American people who don't pay much attention to the political theater that goes on daily in this country. Those of us who follow this closely need to step up our efforts to inform our fellow Americans of exactly what just took place. Let people know that this move by Reid and his party has just put a big stamp of illegitimacy of the US Senate and paved the way for more - not less - corruption, partisanship and unnecessary division.
Congratulations to Harry Reid and the rest of the hypocrites who, in 2005, spoke out AGAINST this exact type of maneuver Harry Reid, then Senator Barack Obama, Senator Joe Biden, Senator Hillary Clinton and others have just proved, yet again, that they are NOT in the business of representative government. They are in the business of obtaining more power over the people to ensure their own agenda is fulfilled. Sickening.
