McConnell is trying to mollify angry conservatives, but what will happen is that he will pass the buck to Charles Grassley, who will keep the blue-slip rule "in deference to comity, bipartisanship and tradition."

I think it’s a stupid process. But let’s not blame McConnel. This has been in place for a long time. Let’s blame Leaders from both parties going back decades. This is a Senate issue, not a party issue.

Personally I say vote them all out. Reps. Dems. And even the couple of half assed independents. Clean the slate and start over.

Jesus, I’m so tired of these blue-ball Republicans.

For the first time ever I think I’ll donate in whatever minute quantities as possible to defeat these SOBs.

Senate rules. Imagine if you hired people to work for you and after they started they began to make their own set of work rules. And further imagine that their work rules resulted in rendering them almost completely unproductive. How long would they remain in your employ? Unfortunately you don’t have to imagine such a scenario since we have a real life example: the U.S. Senate.

Mitch McConnell is the #1 roadblock to getting Trumps agenda pushed through congress.

God I’m so tired of these pussy Republicans bending over for Democrats time after time.

They ... just ... don’t ... learn.
