R-Mitch McConnell is hypocritical amnesiac Number One.....

[Blackhatjack]

Funny he is touting the necessity of the 60 vote filibuster in the Senate, which he says has been the rule for a very long time. He says the Dems are trying to rule the Senate and silence any minority imput.

Ok put old Mitch in the way-back machine, and listen to him from the floor of the Senate. Paraphrased, IF the Dems try to use the filibuster, we will just ignore it as an unconstitutional device that needs to be eliminated to do the will of the people who elected this majority.

The world sure looks different with the shoe on the other foot. I guess Old Mitch would not vote today for the 'nuclear option' to eliminate the filibuster he ranted against when Repubs were in the majority.
