“Reid said. “It’s unprecedented for one political party to directly intervene in an international negotiation with the sole goal of embarrassing the president.””
C’Mon Harry! I know that you’re old enough to remember Speaker Jim Wright playing footsie with the Sandanistas during the Reagan-Bush 1st years.
See post 20.
Yeah, and it was unprecedented for one political party to ditch the appointments filibuster to pack the Courts with docrinaire Progressives.
Just like it was unprecedented for one political party to ram through a major piece of social legislation (Obamacare) on a party-line vote using procedural trickery.
And like it was unprecedented for one party to sit by while it’s President chucked the Constitutional powers of the Congress aside to legalize 5 million immigrants using a blanket “Executive Action”.
It’s long past time the GOP started answering unprecedented actions with other unprecedented actions.
