Isn't a strange world where we automatically believe passed bills/laws are the only measure of success for politicians? As if we don't have enough unenforced/selectively enforced laws already.

And what about the 346 House-passed bills that Harry Reid is sitting on? Real journalism might point that out.

Are you suggesting Harry's sitting on them because he has become a big balanced budget proponent?

You are suggesting the only good bill is a Harry Reid or Obama bill! What a hypocrite! Go outside and play in a tornado!

And anything the congress did send him he refused to sign. He bypasses every thing else. He gets out his magic pen to get what he wants. Don't he know we put them in there to represent us not him.

You must be kidding, right??? Now put the shoe on the other foot and think about a Republican controlled Senate majority leader sitting on Democrat sponsored bills just because they are, yup you guessed it right off, Democrat sponsored bills. Then add in that a Republican President constantly brought up that it was the Democrats who are impeding progress, holding up America? Just give that a thought, an honest thought, and see if you would not be one pissed off SOB. Then get back to us again and tell us that ALL 346 bills are stupid.

Are you REALLY that much of an ignorant person. Nobody could say that with any expectation of being believed.

Meaning no offense, I am having a very hard time even reading your response. Please look at the broken English of what you wrote me. Even in the next post down you speak in broken English. "i am starting to think you maybe though." and "Why do you think they are doing not on purpose."

The first part of the first sentence saying, all the pork that was put in those bills are intended be be blocked by the senate. Blocked by who? Are you saying the Republicans intentionally put pork in their bills just so the bills would be blocked by the Senate? If that is what you are saying then that doesn't make much sense to me or any other sane person. At any rate the bills deserve to come to the floor so the Senate can vote yes or no. For Harry Reid to hide the bills on his own decision doesn't seem right to me. If the Congress should happen to be controlled by Republicans this year I will be interested to read your feelings if no Democratically sponsored bills are ever heard in the Senate again.

Dennis

I would love to read your response but please make it somewhat easy on me and others who may have an interest in what you are saying.
