Nov 2014

I stated in another post, I believe the downfall the right will have in 2016 is the Ryan budget. It will get passed in the house, but it must not get by the democrats in the senate. There needs to be a little push back. Mitch McConnell... you want to put up major GOP agenda bills cutting and slashing....we filibuster, if they get passed with a 51 vote set-up, Mr. President.....you must veto... no 2/3 majority no bill, time to act
