re: #160 RogueOne

No, I’m saying you can’t blame the minority for the actions of the majority. The repubs also said they were against the stimulus plan and HCR and yet the dems still managed to bring both to a vote. The minority is always saying they’re against something and yet things still manage to get voted on. Unless you can point to a stop maneuver played by the repubs in the senate then you need to place blame where it belongs.


Virtually every bill in the Senate had to have a cloture vote last year, which is a first in our history. Over one hundrd attempts to over-ride filibusters.

Also, Jim DeMint was putting personal holds on literally every bill as well and was forcing every other Senator to clear their bills with him.

So much for the GOP leadership. A 1st term senator from SC decided he was the majority leader in a minority party.
