Since Obama became president, I cannot think of one thing the GOP has blocked. Maybe there was something little here or now, but I can’t think of it.

Why does he keep saying he'll "bypass" Congress?

They didn't give him his immigration amnesty, so he's decided to do it on his own.

He didn't get his climate package, so he's going to "bypass Congress" to put what he can into effect.

They're not a rubber stamp approving everything he does, but he does it anyway, even without their permission.

On the upside, at least it means Holder is out.

I hope she is not worse.

So, they played the ‘race card” on themselves?

Just because Holder wanted to leave, does not mean the senate had to rubber stamp another DOJ hack for Obama.

Republicans you should have kept Holder in place, even to the end of BO’s term. You wimps blinked.

Good pic. He can barely contain his mirth for putting another one on us.

Rand Paul has signaled that he is not his father’s son because he can work with McTurtle and should have access to more republican duplicity.

I found this on an earlier thread.

I am surprised my senator did not give in, McCain was on the right side this time.
This also includes their conservative rating.

Quite the confluence. The only oddball is Ron Johnson, who McConnell has been grooming for leadership!

Graham (SC) - 2020 - 58% (Average) - 51% (Creview) - 50% (Heritage) - 58% (CFG) - 68% (ACU) - 64% (FreedomWorks)

Hatch (UT) - 2018 - 57% (Average) - 58% (Creview) - 55% (Heritage) - 44% (CFG) - 75% (ACU) - 55% (FreedomWorks)

Ayotte (NH) - 2016 - 56% (Average) - 44% (Creview) - 51% (Heritage) - 60% (CFG) - 68% (ACU) - 55% (FreedomWorks)

Cochran (MS) - 2020 - 50% (Average) - 37% (Creview) - 54% (Heritage) - 44% (CFG) - 60% (ACU) - 55% (FreedomWorks)

These “Republicans” may not be “cowards” at all, just simple traitors, or they regard their constitutents as 75 percent liberal.

This is just about the craziest response possible. When it comes to confirming anyone in the government, especially a cabinet member, but more importantly THIS cabinet member - the idea that racism has anything to do with it is NUTS! Step back and see how many blacks and other minorities are in the cabinet and other high level government positions. There is no way under the sun that opposition to her has anything to do with racism. (It’s simply opposition to HER) It’s dishonest for the opposition to even bring that up.

Yet another reason that 2016 is going to be a major route for Repubs. Why? Cause most conservatives will just stay home come election day.

Whats the sense of voting anymore?
