I guess I am tired of futility and frustration. The GOP has control of the Senate and does nothing. Reid declared the nuclear option to get their appointments thru. The Dems used all kinds of legislative tricks to get Obamacare thru including reconciliation so they only needed 50 votes.

If you cannot even get cloture to have a recorded vote, what's the point? The vast majority of the voters don't follow this inside baseball process stuff. When a tree falls in the forest, does it make a noise?

Yes the GOP is in control and does nothing.

That's why they should be putting conservative bills like this one on the president's desk.

Make Obama veto bills that the American people want.

And then hammer that point home to the electorate.

This is one such bill.

’ The GOP has control of the Senate and does nothing.’

Untrue.

First thing the backstabbing leaders did was rein stigmata filibusters so the Dems can block legislation.

Where did you get the idea they do nothing?
