Reid again.
Somebody has to stop the abuse of power by Harry Reid.
You all are missing the DAMAGE that will be done to the country and can NOT be undone if this passes........CALL YOUR DEMOCRAT SENATORS NOW to said NO to this...they are scared enough and might (long shot) listen
It will come back to bite them when they want to do a filibuster.
Let’s see how many Democrats are stupid enough to vote for this and give the GOP another political win in 2014.
When the RATs use this tactic to obstruct and delay the nominees of Republicans it’s all OK. But when it’s used on them they suddenly want to change the rules. It’s what small children and bullies do when they know that they can’t have their way.
Rules of the Senate
http://www.rules.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?p=RuleV
SUSPENSION AND AMENDMENT OF THE RULES
1. No motion to suspend, modify, or amend any rule, or any part thereof, shall be in order, except on one day’s notice in writing, specifying precisely the rule or part proposed to be suspended, modified, or amended, and the purpose thereof. Any rule may be suspended without notice by the unanimous consent of the Senate, except as otherwise provided by the rules.
2. The rules of the Senate shall continue from one Congress to the next Congress unless they are changed as provided in these rules.
good, I hope they change the rule as close as possible to when we take back the Senate so we can take advantage of it’s absence once we have complete control again :)
The communists Democrats taking over America. We are headed for a dictatorship unless we take the Senate back and keep the House
I believe the vote is happening right now on CSPAM 2 - I’ve not been paying close attention, but appears to be along party lines (big surprise!).
BTT
Great...and when we retake the Senate next year we will defund ObamaCare with a 51-vote margin.
Aren’t the Senate rules only to change with a 2/3 vote? LAWLESS RATS will never let you down - count on it. We are so done, you can stick a fork in it.
The filibuster is a pointless and vexing procedure not mentioned anywhere in the US Constitution. It should have been put out of its misery ages ago.
Ok..if they want to play this game. If the gop-e takes the Senate next year, then change the rules for impeachment and throw his sorry arse out of there.
