Tweety: "If reconciliation was used the Republicans would ensure that no more bills would ever pass"
Edited on Wed Dec-16-09 07:11 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter
How would they do that?

By not voting for any of our bills?

Bills where not a single Republican votes with us?

OMG... what a terrifying prospect. That would be awful!

3. So why didn't that happen the 23 times the Pukkkes used it during the Bush eon?
Tweety is a miserable squawking putz with a brain the size of a parakeet's.

4. He seemed to be worked up and believing his own blather

I hope he has a good health care plan, that level of self absorbed panic could cause a spring to blow.


HA!

5. I had to laugh too.
And I was surprised that no one said, "As opposed to all the bills they let pass now?"

I remembered today why I stopped watching Tweety.

If this is our media, we are double screwed.
