Going nuclear in the Senate

[over the mountain]

agree with what has already been said here. i dont like the idea but it seems the repubs really have been the party of no to a historical degree.

not only have they used more than of all total filibusters on president obama the average wait time for a nominated person to fill a vacant position is 2.5 years when the avg is something like 6 mos.

what i dont like is i read one democrat said the repubs would have changed the rule anyway if and when they had control of the senate and presidency.

how about president obama on foreign policy though!

averted a long drawn out occupation in Syria when a strike seemed imminent (which would have greatly escalated tensions all around)

averted all out war with Iran through diplomacy.

Amazing, if we had a repub president we would be replacing afghanistan with syria and iraq and with iran.

just amazing we averted another decade of huge military expenses and US lives.

amazing!
