They will also be far short the 67 votes needed to override BO vetoes. But it will be good theater, at least.
Yeah sure. Big talk when they can just blame the lack of any of it materializing on the president or an inability to override a veto. It’s all Kabuki theater.
Bob Corker? Give me a break.
Typical.
GOPe will find a way to lose this, but they will be so disappointed that their plans for Amnesty, Tax Increases, and the destruction of Civil Liberties can’t be implemented.
Instead of WINNING with CONSERVATISM.
Compromise, fold, and give Dems equal representation on committees?
Sadly, a GOP Senate does not necessarily inspire much confidence, except more of the same. The last GOP majority was as much of a disaster as the opposition.
McConnell has already said he will undo Reid’s decision to allow appointees to be confirmed by only 51 votes. STUPID STUPID STUPID! They changed the rule, so make THEM live with it.
I can support this, I am surpirsed that they are attempting to be prepared at anything though.
That border and the waves of immigrants and criminals crossing it has to be in the top 3 on their list. Rounding up and sending them home I hope is on the agenda somewhere as well.
McConnell will restore the filibuster on nominees, so only pro-liberalism nominees of either party can be approved. And he’ll keep the power to prevent “certain” amendments, which he’ll use to deny any and all conservative amendments to bills.
Which is why I hope he loses in November.
McConnell strategy:
DAY ONE: Make power-sharing deal with Democrats
DAY TWO: Kick Lee and Cruz out of all committees
DAY THREE: Amnesty
Ron Johnson discusses GOP agenda for first 100 days if Republicans take over the Senate in November.
FReep mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
Reid dispensed with the filibuster rules when it didn't suit him. So that is the new normal for the democrat majorities. Are the Republican majorities going to govern with the outdated rules?
So where is the trial for Ovomit, after the House impeaches him for executive amnesty?
Not one dime’s worth of difference. McCornhole and Bonor are not leaders.
I see repealing Obamacare is not on the first 100 day to-do list.
