“Held his ground” ????

The ONLY ground McICantatall ever “held” was his grip on the only seat in Congress he cares about: His own. And it is worth as much as atoilet seat for all the energy he has spent opposing this evil administration>

“I can’t do anything: look, they have 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, 57, 56, 55, 54, 53, 52 votes ...”

The president has made it very clear he’s not going to sign any bill that includes defunding of Planned Parenthood, so that’s another issue that awaits a new president hopefully with a different point of view about Planned Parenthood.”

gee how logical. I guess by that logic when someone says they'll never let hostages go then why negotiate? It's just a waste of time right?

The spineless little weasel can’t do anything because HE doesn’t want to do anything.

If he invoked the nuke option and told his caucus you will help me get thru a Conservative or else they would fall in line.

But Mitch the post turtle wants to be friends and wine and dine with all the liberals instead.

And he wonders why the likes of Cruze, Trump and Carson are getting the support they are? Stupid Idiot. I don’t live in Kentucky to cast a vote against him.

He could at least force the democrats to vote in favor of gutting, cutting, and selling babies.

These knuckleheads so fear the dark side that they are paralyzed and don’t even try to fight...this only breeds more GOPe pussy behavior. The country needs a Trump or someone like him with Jedi balls!

Neither party cares about the best interests of the United States. Their only concern is getting control of the federal money spigot.

Doesn't the HOR, which got plenty of conservative reinforcements last election, control the purse? How can McConnell decide that Planned Parenthood will be funded?

I do hope there's a whole lot of primarying going on.

Sid Blumenthal's comments (revealed in email to Hellary):

He also said Boehner "twitches" if the conservative base makes "gestures that might undermine his position."

"Boehner is neither feared nor loved," he goes on. "He's a would-be DeLay without the whip. He's the one at the end of a lash."

Blumenthal said then-Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., is "relatively in the same position in the Senate."

“The Senate Democrats have a big enough number to prevent us from doing things.

Senate Democrats have the same number that McConnell had when he was in the minority, but somehow McConnell was never able to prevent things.

”… without a rider defunding baby body parts trafficker Planned Parenthood."

Again, McConnell is an excellent example why the ill-conceived 17th Amendment should never have been ratified.

As mentioned in related threads, note that not only have the states never amended the Constitution to expressly grant Congress the speciifc power to tax and spend for anything like Planned Parenthood, but the Supreme Court has clarified that Congress is prohibited from appropriating taxes essentially for anything that it cannot justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.

“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

Appropriating taxes to fund things like Planned Parenthood is therefore unconstitutional imo.

The 17th Amendment needs to disappear and corrupt senators who support appropriating taxes for things like vote-winning Planned Parenthood as well.
