The GOP should be vowing to find productive (non-government related) jobs after we replace them with Tea Partiers next year.

They are the only people in America too stupid to see that the Dems weren't afraid to use something that they were terrified of using!! And they have the audacity to threaten revenge!!???

All across America, Democrats are laughing up their sleeves at GOP idiocy!!

Harry knows that the GOPers don’t have the stones. And even if they manage to find their stones, there are individuals who just have an “R” label, but who are really moderate dems.

The Republicans? Fire a return volley? The Tweedle-DUMB party? SENATE Republicans? Not only would it have to be a COLD day in hell — not only would hell have to freeze over — the very FLAMES in the lake of fire would have to freeze blue and orange while lapping at the heels of the frozen damned for THIS to ever happen.....

Okay — I took a little dramatic license. So sue me...

Good for Sen. Johnson, the plain ole businessman. :-)

We need a lot more like him!

That's for sure. And I don't have much faith that the GOP caucus can show any backbone for very long, although that's exactly what they should do: just slow down business to a halt. In general, that's better than passing legislation, especially under the current Senate composition.

Reid and McConnell entered into a gentlemen’s agreement at the beginning of the year to allow the Senate’s business to proceed more smoothly.

You would think that eventually the Republicans would learn that every time they play nicey nice the Dems just double down.
