Whining & obstruction works

What's interesting to me is you believing that you are the end-all be-all on every subject and when someone doesn't acquiesce to your self-perceived superiority, you go all pouty and petulant and start figuratively stomping your feet and issuing orders.

It's so boring.

You nailed Thing1 to a tee.

He is a pompous ass who derides anyone who doesn't agree with him.

Sorry - it's pretty undeniable. The Republicans laid out the blueprint.

Trump himself called for revolution the last time Obama was elected. Said we should march on DC, and that the EC was a disaster. He was the voice of the birther movement, which huge #'s on the right agreed with, as well as every other effort to portray Obama as something other than American, and not a legitimate President. For years.

And obstruction was like breathing for the GOP during the last 8 years. It was a stated goal, and something they truly perfected. Oppose everything. Fight. Resist.

And check it out - it worked! The GOP, as we keep getting reminded, now own pretty much everything.

So enough of these "lessons" for Dems..."hey, you guys better watch it - you're alienating even more voters. You'll spend years in the wilderness if you don't get over it & get along."

Whining works. Obstruction works. That's the actual lesson from the right - not empty words.

Wrong....do you actually know just how many acts of legislation made it to the senate under Harry Reid and did not even receive and up or down vote? The real obstructionists are those who are the typical obstructionists....social leftists. As of May, 2016....Reid has allowed over 400 Bills passed by congress to die without ever having a vote, the majority of them concerning infrastructure projects. The only good thing Reid accomplished was the precedent of allowing appointees such as Scotus appoinments, Sec. of State, etc., to be verified and seated with a simple 50 + 1 majority. Thanks Harry for the nuclear option..no wonder you decided to retire..before you were run out of town on a rail by your fellow obstructionists.

What a simpleton! Quit reading that RW propoganda bullshit. There are a myriad of reasons why a bill doesn't make it to the floor, but you're stuck on one and it's up your ass.

I don't. But you simpletons seem to think that a bill got to Reid and he just filed it in a drawer somewhere. 400 of them. That didn't happen, pal, no matter how much you wanted it to. But simpletons need simple explanations.

Do you really think Reid received 400 bills and just filed them in his desk? Really?

Perhaps you should educate yourself on how a bill moves through the Senate before you continue to embarrass yourself.

No, the actual number was probably more like 350, give or take....

Reid can move a bill through fast or he can kill it by letting in die in committees, or having a member oppose it, etc.....the buck stops at his desk.

How so? You're a snarky SOB who thinks he is smarter than everyone else.

I bet you can't explain or defend your post above and instead say something like, well if you don't understand, I can't help you.

of course not......it was filed away in a committee and left to die without being brought forth for discussion....you did realize that's what we're complaining about, right?......

we don't need to educate ourselves on how a bill moves through the Senate.......the issue is why the Harry and the Democrat Party blocked bills from moving through the Senate.....are all liberals as dense as you are?........

And those reasons are not an OBSTRUCTION to the bill and generated by the left? Laugh My Ass Off. :) In order to make it to the senate...these bills must be voted on and passed by the house. They are legitimate acts of legislation...all killed by the leadership on the left. Its a fact....demonstrate it not to be a fact. :) Its called OBSTRUCTION.
