re: #102 dangerman

look at the difference between reed and mcconnell

reed’s been pushing for these very changes for a while
he will support them even though the ‘other side’ is now in charge
he wants this, so he’s voting for it. (a glimmer of how the system works)

mcconnell et al passed the spending bills a few weeks ago
now he says he wont even bring them up for a revote
they wanted this (100-0 i believe)
he’s shooting himself and the R’s in both feet, both knees, one elbow and hoping if they dont move around too much it wont hurt a lot

Unfortunately, McConnell has had the correct pulse when it comes to backlash for his (and Senate Republicans) overt hypocrisy and fuckery. He likely won’t face much backlash, and if he does, it won’t be for long.
