At that point, Snow pulled out a document, but reporters initially didn't know what it was.

They're no doubt still mocking Snow for pulling out some old relic in a press conference, instead of the New York Times, for answers on how our government should run.

I don't get it. Why does it matter who has a technical majority? The Dems have an idealogical one. Forgive my political ignorance. =P

"How can the Democrats claim that they've got a majority if two of them were not elected as Democrats?" countered WND.

What a dumbass question. If you caucus with the Democrats you are functionally a Democrat even if you run as a Green, an Indepenent, or even a Monarchist.

The Constitution has been reduced to a prop. Unfortunately, how true.

actually, Snow is right. The Constitution is useless here except to allow the Senate to make up it's own rules.

The Democrats and Lieberman have decided to caucus with Socialist Bernie Sanders.

And my question, doesn't the president believe this 'Democrats claim everybody' theory should and could be tested in court?

What kind of stupid question is this?

WND is as hysterical as some leftist media with these inane questions. Of course leiberman etc. can caucas with whom they want, knowing darn well they are giving the DNC a majority.

Technical majority means committee chairmanships, which can control what legislation even gets to the floor to be voted on. Also, the majority gets their choice of offices, so every time there's a change everybody moves.

What a dumbass question.

Agreed. The lack of basic political knowledge by these hack reporters (both libs and conservatives) is laughable. It's a real shame Tony has to do what our dysfunctional state educational system has failed to do for so many.

"Is that Mao's Little Red Book?" another reporter suggested.

He must have thought he was at the Pelosi press conference.

Wow. Snow actually has a copy of the Constitution? I wonder if he's ever read it. If so, he might be the only one in DC that has..

And have had one for years thanks to all the RINOs.

Shoot. Half of Congress wouldn't recognize it by sight. No big suprise the Leftist presstitutes wouldn't recognize it either.

What if Lieberman decided at the last minute to caucus with the Pubs?
