Van Susteren and Roberts Dismiss Obstructionism: 'Deal with it'
"See that long blue bar under Obama's name? That's the number of times cloture has been sought from a filibuster. The last five presidents put together had to do it 393 times. With three years still left in his second term, Obama's agenda has already dealt with it 307 times. If the Republicans continue apace, that number will be in the 490s by the end of his term, significantly more than the last five presidents together."
Uh, Senate Democrats did "deal with it". They made minor changes to the filibuster rules, and how did the GOP and their lackeys at FOX News respond?
ReplyDeleteOutrage and indignation.
My response to them: "Deal with it!"
