Hypocrites on Filibuster FIRE!
Looking forward to blogging and podcasting here!
Hello everyone! I thought I would just start this off with a video compilation of just how thick the hypocrisy is:
Senate Democrats will force a vote on rolling back the filibuster rules in an effort to pass sweeping voting reform legislation in the coming days.
While Republicans have balked at the brazen attempt to unravel the 60-vote threshold in the Senate, Democrats say the two voting rights bills at the center of the effort are so important to democracy they warrant upending long-standing Senate rules.
"All of us in this chamber must make a choice about how we will do our part to preserve our democratic republic," Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Tuesday. "We can’t be satisfied in thinking that democracy will win out in the end if we are not willing to put work in to defend it."
Enjoy!
Democrats don’t have the votes for their election takeover bills, so they’re trying to end the filibuster – something they REPEATEDLY said they opposed.
