Next Congress will convene with a Republican replacement for Reid in the Senate, so he can forget about changing the rules outside Stoplight, Nevada or whatever pissant town he lives in.

This is so un-American. “Mr. Smith” is spinning in his grave. If the commie ‘RATS pull this off, the GOP needs to insure that this “rule” is made permanent and cannot ever, never be changed once the Republicans are the majority again.

Looking to challenge a time-honored privilege widely used by both parties when they are in the minorityNext year when THEY are in the minority they will quickly change their tune.

Yeah, by all means don’t work with the other side to draft a bill that will actually pass...

I assume they are counting on Byrd to die soon and therefore not be the curmudgeon he frequently is.

Why is it that when used by Repubs, it's abuse.
THE OIC comes to mind. Required by the RATS as an outgrowth of Watergate, only to be declared abusive when used against Bill Clinton.

EVERY CITIZEN had better get onboard quick to protest this totally brazen move towards DICTATORSHIP without hesitation!
This is a direct attack upon the REPUBLIC, and the carefully crafted legislative rules and procedure the Founding Fathers put into place to insure freedom from Tyranny!
We Must ACT against this frontal threat with full force and maximum vigor - IMHO

The ‘Rats need to be very careful what they ask for. It will bite them hard when they lose power.

Next congress you wont even be there, Nancy will be assigned a broom closet, and the Republicans will be back in control and YOU will be screaming for the Democrats to use it to stop the Republicans.
To: tobyhill
IIRC it takes 67 votes to change any Senate rule so hahaha you lose Reid in more ways than one come November! BTW, when exactly have the Republicans used a fillibuster since 2006? Since we just got a 40th vote I’d say that someone is lying!

This is tantamount to a declaration of war. The Democrat party is an enemy within this country and are showing it so brazenly now. They are drunk with power and are abusing this country and its people in the process now where they think the laws can be made to outlaw any voice and challenge against them. This is how dictatorships and dangerous regimes come to be, people. I am not using hyperbole when I say that 0bama and the Demons are evil. They will do anything and are proving it again and again. There needs to be a serious challenge to these people because this is out of control and it’s up to the people in gov’t positions, YES REPUBLICAN SCUMBAGS, to actually challenge them and use the appropriate language for them. This is not your typical American political process, but an attempt to destroy this country by these communist/fascist/tyrannical, extremely dangerous leftists.
