It takes a lot to make Senate Republicans to act like vertebrates. Maybe this attempt to change the rules will do the trick.

Don't count on it.

As we saw with the dirty dozen who supported the repeal of DADT, coupled with a WEAK, WUSS, RINO, Leader (McConnell) it would not surprise me at all.

However, woe be the R who votes or agrees to that as they WILL BE TOAST at when they run again in their next election.

“However, woe be the R who votes or agrees to that as they WILL BE TOAST at when they run again in their next election.”

My dad often says that the one thing the Founding Fathers should’ve done, but didn’t, was put term limits for congress (both houses) in the Constitution. I concur, and also think there should be the following revision: for the House - four year terms, limited to two (or three at most); for the Senate - four year terms, also limited to two or three at most. Senators should have to run more often, and House members shouldn’t have to start fundraising as soon as they’re sworn in.

Thoughts?
