“don’t forget it was Maine’s own Olympia Snowe(R) that allowed it out of committee and then voted NO knowing the Dems had the votes to pass it on its own.... SHE IS THE TRUE MOTHER OBAMACARE!!.. Had she voted NO in the committee there would never even been a vote on Obamacare!”

I wonder if Susan Collins has any relation to Snowe.

Hillary was premature. She was supposed to be born on Halloween 🎃.

Gideon, I believe, had only the jawbone of an ass.

The Senate has Chuck Schumer.

Perhaps Chuck-U should be reminded of Odumbocare, which was rammed through by a one-vote Democrat majority with no Republican votes at all.

They first had to steal a Senate seat with endless recounts until the groper won, then dumped him later because he was a groper.

There were a bunch of “deals” with various State reps to get them to vote for it.

Ah yes the new Louisiana Purchase, money talks.

"Might does not make right," Schumer told Republicans of their decision to move forward.

Chuck's reminding us that what does make right is that the Democrats are always right. As usual.

Yes, that truly was the critical vote to pass it so we could find out what was in it.

Mu”shrumer” doesn’t even know how that phrase is supposed to be translated. Might can make what is wrong into what is right.

Schumer’s quiver is empty.

I had a tremendous quiver-ache this morning, but I took two Tylenol and it went away.

“Might does not make right.”

That’s rich coming from Democrats who changed the 60 vote requirement, who want to abolish the Electoral College, who pushed to have senators elected by popular vote, who used vote shenanigans to pass Obamacare, who destroyed impeachment protocol based solely on party vote, and who have been pushing mob violence this summer and threatening more next month. “Might” has been a handy tool for Democrats for a long time.

Neglected to include amnesty for illegals as one of their “mighty” tools.

I think Arlen Specter a Repub. Senator from Penn. voted for it, and that was the end of “Snarlin Arlen” in politics.

Assuming Barrett is confirmed on Monday, and assuming Kavanaugh and Gorsuch actually vote conservative, and assuming Clarence Thomas doesn’t decide to retire, the SC will finally have a conservative majority. Roberts is clearly determined to vote with the liberals on every major case and a number of minor cases.
