What difference would it make if they are going to vote like Democrats anyway?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337861108761350581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21392130.post-46466393624512200442015-02-14T21:50:37.448-05:002015-02-14T21:50:37.448-05:00Now that's a real remedy, swampwarbler - ACTIO...Now that's a real remedy, swampwarbler - ACTION.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337861108761350581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21392130.post-6487881376962270672015-02-14T21:49:02.474-05:002015-02-14T21:49:02.474-05:00If the House has the power of the purse ie the bud...If the House has the power of the purse ie the budget, why do they need senate votes?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337861108761350581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21392130.post-26059807619569748792015-02-14T21:36:08.983-05:002015-02-14T21:36:08.983-05:00Cassandra, you are always right and never paid att...Cassandra, you are always right and never paid attention to.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337861108761350581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21392130.post-23360234561475748212015-02-14T17:32:13.598-05:002015-02-14T17:32:13.598-05:00One more week to get out there and scream at these...One more week to get out there and scream at these gutless wonders.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337861108761350581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21392130.post-2170101860754462602015-02-14T12:51:25.143-05:002015-02-14T12:51:25.143-05:00If he used reconciliation, it would do three thing...If he used reconciliation, it would do three things. First, it would defeat Obama and the Democrats. Second, it would make the Democrats eat the same pile of feces they have been happily feeding the Republicans for years. Third, it would inspire future, probably successful, resistance to Obama and the Democrats.<br /><br />None of those are even mildly desirable goals to the Institutional Republicans who view the Democrats as their superiors and the American people as their enemies. We live in a functional one party state. Which residence makes electoral and legislative politics moot.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337861108761350581noreply@blogger.com
