After three failed procedural votes this week, Senate Republicans Wednesday allowed Democrats to move financial reform legislation to the floor by unanimous consent. <more>

 

Word is that Mitch McConnel didn't want to miss the Kentucky Derby this weekend..

He has plenty of time to delay, obstruct, fear monger and block the bill....why mess up his fun?

 

first you bitch at them for ""delaying""....then you bitch when they agree to bring to the floor...

doesn't matter what they do, you'll bitch

 

The repubs realized their move would backfire on them at the polls.

 

We only bitch at them for being incompetent. For refusing to help clean up their mess.

 

only you could believe that pile of meadowmuffins....

yeah, its only the republicans fault, no one else and no one else in this thread bitched about them allowing the debate go to the floor....

 

no, they said they now had confidence the debate would be bipartisan, their tactics worked, instead of allowing the dems to run roughshod with another outlandish democratic bill....they wisely delayed to create stronger reform...

 

the pubs created this all by themselves.....no help from any dems not one.....is that your claim.....

care to back that up.....

 

aw come on... you'd have made fun of the dems if they did the same thing. i know i would have.

 

Wise?

Wise?

Ha ha ha ha ho ho ha ha ho ho tee hee giggle snicker (wipe tear from eye).

Now THAT was a good one?
