I think I must add that I am not a professional journalist. I am simply a citizen of the United States that is tired of all the backbiting to "stay in my Senate seat" that I see from all those Republican Senators that did not have enough backbone to hold a real trial or give a fair hearing (as the US Constitution requires) to the House Representatives bringing suit against a corrupt US President.

These are the same men who are threatening to "go nuclear" and change the rules of the Senate.

Now, Rick Santorum might not know how to defeat a filibuster but there are Republican Senators in that honorable body that do know how to do it. If they will just grow backbones and get organized and do it. And, I might state that if the Repubs do "go nuclear" and change the rules then there will be a time when they are no longer in power and will have to use the filibuster just as the Dems are now.

All this talk is nonsense! We did not send those men back there to jack their jaws: we sent them to do a job and to stand for what is right, not what is politically expedient at the moment.

I don't disagree with you on most of that.

I don't see that comment from Santorum as being so bad, but do understand the context of your complaint.

Others might not understand the context, so maybe you could tell them?

You're against that?
