If you remember, Reid blamed it on the Republicams. McConnell is just throwing back in his lap to make it look like the Dems don’t want to compromise. It’s called politics and everyone is playing both sides of the fence after the fact.
To: Roccus
If that’s the case, they need to work the corner.
To: tiredoflaundry
Reid is talking about bending over backwards to accomodate republicans. "More republican amendments than democrap"...
His own party probably has as many objections as do the bushless republicans!
Then he goes on to suggest that a minority killed the bill that a majority wanted to see passed.
Note to those who count on their fingers...
If you'd had a majority (versus that troublesome minority) the damn thing would have passed!

Watch for another grand compromise before the 4th of July. They’ll ruin Independence Day for us if they can.

The rinos want their bill, it was just a fluke that cloture didn’t pass.

He Sandy, we all have quite good ideas but it starts with acting on what is law.
NOW.
The whole point was to give instant 24 hour legalization. And they would stop the fence.

Reid want to give BUSH his legacy
