senate dems did not win anything, they change a rule that has been in place for 250 years because they could not get there way without doing so. sounds like tyrany to me

They have finally invoked the "Nuclear Option" in the senate.

Hopefully, the mid-term elections will bring their stupidity to full light!

I'm just curious, do any of the local Democrats support this? checks and balances are put in place for a reason.

Thanks goodness. This was a massive roadblock while the GOP had power and is still a massive roadblock with the DEMs. Good for senate dems. Never thought I'd say those words...

Another roadblock lifted to the great OBama! He can appoint any of his minions just as a dictator in a third world country. Lets just say what everyone is thinking, can the D word be far ahead?

Good deal. All issues before the Seante should be an up or down vote period.

Why don't you all fix the problem by getting a full education on the issues, supporting those candidates who based their policy stances on the facts, and penalize those that only offer partisan fluff and blustering.

my god some of you are so BLIND. ur clapping and saying good, good job, now something will get done, yada yada.

something will get done alright, and it won't be good for us. this admin is killing this country and some of you are helping them do it. Seriously, what is wrong with you?

Are you that obtuse, stupid, ignorant, fooled? Do you hate this country? What could possibly keep you believing the lies? You still don't believe obammy is a muslem? (misspelled on purpose mr. spell checking nazi)

It's coming to a point that if he isn't removed from office one way, it will have to be done another. The rumor mill is already talking about that.

And those of you that still worship him might go along with him by association.

To put it mildly, these are interesting times. The one who succeeds in that mission will be hailed as a hero and a patriot, not a villain.

It cannot happen soon enough.

Bingo!! She lost the election due to ignorant Republicans and third party voters. I will take her any day over any Democrat.. And she is much better looking than Hillary or Pelosi.

There is so much damaging evidence to have Obama tried and hung as a traitor, but no one sees evil in him. He can do no wrong and the spineless Republicans refuse to contemplate making an issue with him...

Good Lord 3:56 where in the heck did you learn history? It has been a Senate rule since 1917 not 1970. You are a prime example of the absolute idiocy of the Democrat Party.
