    And the smug douche Majority Whip shows up.... Fuck that guy. He's essentially saying "There's a hearing coming up, now sit down and shut up."

    Fuck him, and all the other smarmy bastards that have magically shown up in the past half hour after leaving paul alone to fight for 11hours.
    I've noticed this same thing here recently. I was thinking all the fucking coat riders just showed up.

Dis somanumbatching country was founded so that the liberties of common patriotic citizens like me could not be taken away by a bunch of fargin iceholes... like yourselves.

    He's trying to get some bump from it. Now that Obama's dinner is over, R's are showing up for face time and to offer a few minutes in front of Cspan

    I find it hilarious that this is Historical and MSNBC nor CNN has it as a headline. CNN it's buried on the front page, MSNBC I didn't even see anything.
    Meanwhile, Rand Paul likes on Facebook have gone up like 50,000 in about 3 hours.

    And Reid pushed so hard to make it a simple majority to override a filibuster for 2 years which coincidentally would be until the elections where Reid could lose his position

    This right here is exactly why amending the filibuster rules is out of the question for me. We need procedural rules that protect minority political groups from majority political groups, so we're not just a simple democracy. The filibuster is one of those procedural rules that makes sense.

    Maybe just maybe this will be seen by the sheep and they will wake up stand behind some of these guys back. And take a long hard look at whats been done to the constitution.




















    But I doubt it.
