I LOVE IT!!! The Senate made a mess of Bush-43’s court appointments and many, many, other things - even though the Dems only had 43 votes. They simply filibustered EVERYTHING. Now they think it’s unfair - FINE!!! We will get power back, at least for a short time (until Amnesty ends it all for us). During that time, it sure would be nice to get people on to the courts with a majority vote.
Remember this? I have a long memory when it comes to the commie left and their takedown of America.
Editorial: Hypocrisy abounds on filibuster issue
May 18, 2005 Reid: THE RIGHT to extended debate is never more important than when one party controls Congress and the White House, and in these cases the filibuster serves as a check on power and preserves our limited government."
"Change in the Senate rules — that really, I think, would change the character of the Senate forever (and would be) simply majoritarian absolute power on either side (of Congress), and that's not what the Founders intended."
I had the pleasure of voting for Cruz twice. The first time, I was told by the Republican Party to vote for someone else. But I was told by another party, whose first letter is “T” to vote for Cruz. Obviously I voted for Cruz...then again in November.
I cannot remember EVER seeing a newbie in either house of Congress shake things up to the extent that he has. He has the old farts screaming at him, because he “know his place”. He’s been there less than 5 months and he’s making them look like monkeys.
