Fuck the obstructionist Republicans. Time to invoke the nuclear option
What a waste of time listening to amendments after worthless amendments. Time to bring it down to a simple majority. The nation is in a state of emergency and the senators are out there milling about doing absolutely nothing.

Reid has GOT to go - Boxer for Majority Leader - she'll get the people at attention and not wasting time.

1. How 'bout the woodshed option?
Take the obstructionist bastards out back & tenderize them with a couple of split pieces of stove wood until they start showing insight into the error of their ways.
