Why did Harry Reid go nuclear? Here's why, in one image

by Ian Reifowitz Nov 21, 2013 10:04am PST

Republicans have sought, as a rule, to use every tactic imaginable to block the initiatives and policies proposed by this president. They've done so since the night of his inauguration. The use of the filibuster by the Republican minority to block President Obama's nominees (judicial and executive branch) is part of an unprecedented ratcheting-up of the use of that tactic. As Gail Collins so wonderfully put it, we're now at a point where the nomination of a new Federal Reserve Chair cannot come to a vote until Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) decides there's been sufficient discussion of Benghazi.

Great work, Senator Reid, and kudos to the other fifty-one Senate Democrats who did the right thing today. It's a new day for the U.S Senate.

3. Probably because they posted an old image instead of an updated one.

4. I just don't understand

how the number in Obama's first term changed.
Needless to say, the high numbers speak volumes.

5. That is not a first term number. The first Obama line is current total, second line is 'projected'

The numbers are for ALL the time Obama has been in office.
