[spanone]

1. Watching it.

And he is spot on. The Senate makes me want to scream.

[spanone]

6. i watched the meeting and came away with a different impression.

besides, i see nothing wrong with trying to get democrats re-elected.

[Skidmore]

7. I don't have a problem with getting Dems re-elected either,

if they are doing their jobs. And the Senate is not doing its job.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

2. Same outhouse, different day.

[Skidmore]

3. Congressman says there are 264 bills sitting the Senate waiting for

action. Says either get rid of the supermajority or force them to fillibuster on the Senate floor. Call them on it. He is right.

8. is that a high number, low number, normal number??? need comparisons or it's just numbers

i am not a fan of this senate either.

11. Mostly normal, actually.

The Senate is ALWAYS by far the slower of the two bodies.

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

10. Except you can't force a floor filibuster.

Either you misunderstood said Congressman or they're either a moron or a grandstander.

[thunder rising]

4. But how many of those needed to be lectured to?

[Skidmore]

5. Self-delete dupe. Computer hiccuped.

[Pirate Smile]

9. He does it every day. That is why I don't watch his shitty show and can't wait until he is gone.

[DFLforever]

12. Imagine that! US Senators

using an opportunity to advance their own re-election.

Lots of reasons to criticize them, but I think this one isn't realistic.

[lamp_shade]

13. We should all listen to him. He's so much smarter than anybody else.

[spanone]

14. hehe

15. Enact the Nuclear Option. DUMP the requirement for 60 votes.

Simple majority does it. Tell Joe Biden to live in the Senate Chamber in case he's needed as a tie breaker for the Blue Dogs who forget which party they belong to.

Get. It. Done.

All the status quo is going to do is make Democrats lose seats in November. People are TIRED of the bullshit. GET. IT. DONE.
