Actually I did pay attention to what Scott said and it's not reflected
in the modified quote he provided (above).

His actual words were, "I and most of the top repubs I hear..."

I find it humorous that Scotty, who depends upon the government for
much, including his family's health care, supports a party that wants to
take those bennies away from him. If the GOPers take away his state or
federal bennies, he and his family will have their health care subject
to the vagaries of fate.

I try not to judge people based on their personal circumstances. It's
none of my business. Everyone needs some help sometimes. Hopefully
it's there if you need it.

It speaks volumes about his "political" judgment.

Well, you should be smart enough to figure out I don't consider myself a
"top republican".... don't be such a douche..

Seriously Scott, I am not pinging on you. It's just funny as hell
sometimes to read what you respond with sometimes.

I think he and Harry are having a little 'togetherness' moment.
Disregard it.

With the mid-term election over there will be many new faces ... both
Republican and Democrats ... taking seats in Congress next year.

Only problem is that those in the leadership positions remain. They
just swap jobs in the Senate. Mitch McConnell is pretty much
guarantied
the Senate Majority Leader position with Harry Reid pretty much
guarantied the Minority Leader position.

The House stays as it is most likely ... John Boehner as Speaker and
Nancy Pelosi as minority leader.

If I am not mistaken both houses of Congress must elect them to these
positions, although it is really just a formality.

It might be interesting for them *not* to hold those positions this
time
around. Make Congress as clean and new as possible. Their influences
represent the past, not necessarily the future.


I think the simple act of allowing bills to come to the floor will
change a lot. Many of the 380 plus bills Harry Reid and his "party of
NO" would not let come to the floor were bipartizan bills sent up from
the house. If I am correct, you would only need 8 dems to vote on
one of
those bills with the republicans and a veto could be overridden. Do I
have my numbers right, 60 votes, right?


That's my understanding to make a vote veto proof.




If all the members of the US Senate are present, it takes 67 of them
or a two thirds majority to override a presidential veto. The
percentage in the US House is the same, a two thirds majority of the
members present when the boat is taken.


Is that an imaginary boat?

That's his voice recognition software. It can't recognize the
difference between a 'v' and a 'b'. Having a bunch of broken bones in
your hand is a real bitch!

Johnny, we know you desperately missed Harry while he was gone but he's back now.
You can stop trying to start trouble with other posters.
