In reply to the discussion: McConnell: Filibuster Changes Would ‘Poison’ Party Relations [View all]dicksmc3
(262 posts)84. Turtlehead
Mitch "Turtelhead" McConnell is a real DICK!! He knows damn good and well what has transpired the last 4 years. After he made the statement on Fix so-called news that his main objective was to make President Obama a one termer, he sees the Dems finally going to call him and the other clown Repulicans out for their actions when it comes to filibusters. Harry Reid told him in no uncertain terms the obstructionsim the Dems have faced with these Republicans. Harry even siting several instances over proposed legislation offered in the Senate. I just hope that people in Kentucky wake up and vote McConnell and Rand Paul out when their terms are up..
