The Turtle is angry

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell railed against Senate Democrats on Tuesday after they blocked movement on a "fast-track" trade bill.

The Kentucky Republican suggested Senate Democrats who voted "no" on the trade legislation "rail against the future."

"The rationale for voting ... a vote that would simply have allowed the Senate to debate the issue, was overwhelming," he said. "It was supported by the facts, and yet voices in the president's party who rail against the future won out today."

Remember, this is the man who pledged to make Obama a "one term president"

But the world is flat. And not in the Moustache of Understanding/Incomprehensibility sense of the word.

that is applicable to nearly every situation imaginable. This one was especially sharp, satirically speaking.
