...for having an expectation that our elected leaders could possibly say what the mean and mean what they say.

Reid up til Wednesday said if he could not get the votes he was going to go nuclear. Reid has been saying for years he would like to change the filibuster, he had his chance and failed. He has failed on other empty threats,you know what those are so dont ask.

Some time I dont think its failure as much as it is collaboration with republicans and the fact Reid is taking big $$$ from major corporations just like the most of them.

Again my apologies if it sounds like I am bashing Reid but I think these are the types of conversations we should be happening because alot ion the Democratic party vote and talk like they are republicans and we need to get them out.
