Se. Harry Reid (D-NV) calls for Constitutional amendmentto restrict Koch brothers

[hazlnut]

Does Reid know that the Senate cannot pass Constitutional amendments?

BZZZZZT!


Sorry, you just revealed your ignorance.


A constitutional Amendment must pass with a super-majority in both the house and senate.

Then ratified.

They should be prosecuting Obama as well, but under the Holder Justice Department only Republicans get prosecuted for anything.

last time I checked Romney wasn't even scolded by the DOJ.

your argument doesn't hold water.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

No, he wasn't.

Yeah, he was.

Many of the Republicans only voted for the bill to foul up Democrats’ pre-election messaging schedule, freezing precious Senate floor time for a measure that ultimately has no chance of securing the two-thirds support necessary in both the House and Senate to amend the Constitution.

The legislation needed 60 votes to advance and Democrats took a cynical view of the 79-18 tally. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said the GOP’s tactic was simply to “stall” because it would eat up limited floor time that Democrats are eyeing for votes aimed at encouraging gender pay equity and raising the minimum wage.

“They know we’re getting out of here fairly shortly and they want to prevent discussion on other very important issues,” said Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). “I would love to be proven wrong. But if the end of this week, we end up getting 67 votes, you can tell me I was too cynical.”

Current election law prevents politicians from accepting contributions from foreigners. We aren't talking about what the candidate can accept here. The point of this law is to prevent independent groups from expressing an opinion about a candidate or his policies. It's a straight out attack on the First Amendment. Only a Stalinist would defend this despicable piece of shit.

Can't legally silence them so let's change the laws to eliminate freedom of speech. That will fix the problem.

It's not eliminating "Freedom of speech".

It's eliminating the role money has in stifling Free Speech.

Money doesn't stifle anyone's freedom to speach. The First Amendment protects Freedom of Speech. It doesn't enforce equal speech. That's what Stalinists like you refuse to understand.

You gotta love it! Rich people don't have rights to speak any longer. What the hell, they are rich so screw 'em! Funny though, no one on the left seems to care that George Soros is a multi-billionaire Ex Nazi. He has RIGHTS, don't you know....

So, to recap....Republican rich guys - shut up. Democrat rich guys - speak up.

Gotcha!

You find that, where exactly, in my post?

You see dead people, as well?

HR maneuvered the GOP badly on this issue.

Acting ignorant is another favorite tactic of the Hitlerite fascist.

They play these game in the hopes that their intentions aren't clear as a bell.

Note to the Fascist Hitlerite. They are as a clear as a bell.

Ding!

The "Hitlerites" are the ones who want to abolish the First Amendment.who

Reid belongs in a rubber room, not he senate. He raises hell about the Koch brothers yet refuses to condemn Sheldon Adleson who also gives millions to republicans. He's a senile hypocrite and the country would be much better off if he had no political power at all.

Yup.

You do want to abolish it.

With money.

See? Clear as a bell.

Hitlerite.

 

[Siete]

at the end of the day Reid can't do squat to the Koch Bros without the Republicans in Congress, and that won't happen ... ergo; the OP is full of caca.

 

[M.D. Rawlings]

Adelson gives all the money to GOP campaigns. The Kochs supply all the propaganda outlets, orgs and institutes...about 400 million ayear. Their money also goes to superpacs, all difficult to follow...

Excellent! Oh, wait! That gives you a boo boo, doesn't it?

I'm sorry, but according to the FBI, there is no such thing as the Mafia.

Harry Reid is a drug mule for the Mafia in Las Vegas

and the right can't find anyone credible enough to win an election against a drug mule .... speaks volumes for the right doesn't it.

In other words, you can't explain. We already knew that, but we always enjoy watching you choke when you attempt to justify your fascist agenda.

Oh, Harry Reid will be nothing more than a distant memory after November. Perhaps the Republicans will let him be Cloak Room Monitor??
