I’d rather see Reid in a Smart Car in that matchup.

Wathced CSPAN Harry doesn’t look happy.

As I understood it, the first cloture vote will be wednesday, Harry has ‘filled the amendment tree’, Harry and Mitch will make statements tomorrow morning (when we will hear of any ‘unanimous consent agreement’.

Harry heavily criticized Cruz’ request that amendments be approved by 60 votes.
LOL! I bet he demanded it plenty when he was minority leader.

No, he lives.

The Joe Pesci character and his brother get beaten with baseball bats and buried alive.

-— Reid and Obummer owning the shutdown—that will infuriate them. -—

How sweet it is.

And how strange it is that the media makes no mention of the fact that Cruz has the Rats boxed in.

OK, not very.
