The stupid idiots did wake up.Obama pulled some fast ones last Christmas closing the NBP’s case and appointing liberals. I must say I am shocked at the GOP pubs wow!Now as long as no one takes away any of they’re (dems and pubs) insider trading crony crap they will appease us I guess.

“...Democrats blasted McConnell for what they believe is a GOP pattern to stymie Obama nominees in the Senate”
Ya think?
‘Bout time we started playing a little hardball.
stymie Obama ???
Wonder if Buckwheat knew his real name?
It's just another ongoing political pissing contest /imo and the RATs lost this round.
“A White House spokesman could not immediately be reached for comment.”
“Comments, can wait, I’m gettin’ on that party plane to Hawaii”.

What’s good for the goose....dingy Harry!
Do not let this man near anything n the federal level.This is pay back for helping Obama cheat and win n Ohio in 2008.

*The stupid party woke up! Merry Chistmas Mitch McConnell!**
Just maybe, they are having Newt flash backs and remembering how gonads are supposed to work.
“Leahy said. “This is a new and damaging tactic Senate Republicans have devised. They are stalling action on noncontroversial nominees.”
It’s about damn time the Pubbies responded with tit for tat. The dems had no problem with this procedure when Bush was POTUS. In fact, they thought they were very clever using a little used procedure to block any appointments.
What’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the rat.
Are you calling the GOP “stupid” even when they do the right thing ????
That’s real good...
While I’m glad this is being done, one does have to wonder what would have been done had Obama promised NOT to recess-appoint anyone. Would McConnell have gone on recess, giving Obama the opening he needs? And look at it from Obama’s standpoint - he only has one year left in his term (assuming the Republicans don’t nominate Governor Perry), so what does he have to lose?
Hip hip hooray
Still functioning at bare minimum level though.
Same as was done for the summer recess. I’m glad the “tea party” members have gone ahead and taken his action.
