This was the actual headline:

“Senate Democrats’ Obstruction Is Damaging the Senate As Senate Democrats oppose President Trump’s judicial nominees for bad reasons and no reasons, they are damaging the Senate as institution long-term.”

FR required me to shorten the headline, so blame me, I guess.

“Elections have consequences.” Was the excuse I recall they chided us with most frequently. That, and, “Obama won, he gets to pick the judges.”

Harry Reid jammed through plenty of left wing judges after he threw out the filibuster rule.

We need new Republicans.

I blame the GOPe more than the Dims.

The Dims are all snakes and we know it, but the Republicans are worse because they claim to be either Conservative or doing what is good for Conservatives.

We know different.

Last time I looked, the Republicans held the majority in the Senate.

I can’t even imagine a Democrat majority putting up with the same BS as Republicans under Mcconnell have endured. What a pathetic POS.
