Killing the Senate

One stupid senator at a time.

2010: Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-hurrrrr) says that using reconciliation to pass bills “would really be the end of the Senate."
2003: Sen. Alexander uses reconciliation to pass a Bush bill.
2005: Sen. Alexander uses reconciliation.
2005 again: Sen. Alexander uses reconciliation.
2007: Sen. Alexander uses reconciliation.

Reconciliation has been used to pass at least 19 bills, including major pieces of health care reform legislation like the Children’s Health Insurance Program and the Medicare Advantage Program. Fourteen of the times reconciliation was employed it was used to advance Republican interests.
Of course it was.

And of course the goddamn MSM will NOT bring up any of that easily-available history, to put things in a meangingful historical context - - they just present each crazy-ass Reich-wing statement as if it's a credible claim. Nowadays, just about the only time I can listen to the MSM is when I'm in my car alone and nobody else car hear me swearing back at the radio! I just feel like I'm being suckered when I listen to their crap - - as if some insurance/aluminum siding/vaccuum cleaner/(whatever your poison) SALESMAN is pitching his shit to me and (like any 'good' salesman) is only telling a very selective version of 'the truth'.
