Repukes had no problem threatening to do away with the filibuster to get their way.
I think it's time to throw that back in their faces.
Don't want to pass the stimulus, NO PROBLEM.
Do away with the filibuster, Dump all the dog shit put in to apease PUKES and ram it through!
THAT'S WHAT AMERICA WANTS!!!

1. I agree. We're never going to win the 'pukes over with love
and kindness. Their failed policies have been repudiated by the American people. It's time, also, for a new majority leader in the Senate. Senator Reid is a ball-less wonder who couldn't stand up to a wet noodle.

3. I agree this is too important
to let evil little scumbags derail it for their own selfish motives!

2. I agree
the filibuster is not in the Constitution, and its use is against the clear intent of the Constitution, that legislation should pass in the Senate by majority vote. Pushing that requirement up to a 60% supermajority is an unlawful modification of our form of government.
