Then there's this:
McConnell suggested that Democrats want to push for filibuster reform simply because they need something to distract angry Americans from the truth about Obamacare.
course the GOP will scream, but how many times did McConnell promise Reid the GOP would be more responsible and follow the intent of the filibuster (rate) & just continued the SOS!!??

And now the truth can be told… This was meant to distract angry Americans from the job/baby/senior/women-killing ACA website. Which was meant to distract siwwy wepubwicans from Benghazi. Which was meant to distract them from the reality that Bin Laden was never killed but kept in the back room of a 7-11 until Obama could appoint him — without obstruction — to the SCOTUS. Bring on the Sharia law!

GOP still able to obstruct the judicial appointments by not showing up to committee:
Quote:
The Senate Judiciary Committee held an executive business meeting to consider pending nominations and legislation on November 21, 2013. A quorum was not present, and the Committee was not able to complete action on pending matters. The meeting recessed subject to the call of the Chair.
Well 2 things - 1. show the american people the GOTP are AWOL - taking their salary but skipping the job ! Everyone hates loafers and welfare kings !!
OR
2. Change the rules and pass by a majority present.
What piss ants and poor losers !! What POs me is McConnell said 5-6 years ago these should be decided by an up or down vote- when they were GWs nominees... shows clearly they're hypocrites and just F-ing the system !! (surprise - surprise ! we're shocked ! )
