I don't think I am the only one who is sick and tired of this "Be very afraid, do not question our authority" mentality that the GOP is pushing. It worked for a time in pre-WW2 Germany, but it cannot stand. I didn't spend more than two decades of my life "supporting and defending the Constitution of the United States" to have a bunch of rich, draft-dodging clowns tell me not to ask questions, or to be afraid of anything, except maybe my mama waving a high heel if I misbehaved as a youngster.

We earned our right to vote with the volunteer blood of our citizenry, and a bunch of greasy, fat, pomaded and perfumed old men are not going to take it from us. This discussion in the Senate is designed to make the American people, many of whom are blinded by ideological desire and a faux sense of team spirit, see that when you disenfranchise one, you disenfranchise us all.

If it ain't fair, it can't fly. That's the America I grew up in.
