Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell Threatens To Have Republicans Up In Arms Over Democrat's Agenda

   So what's new with these GOP pieces of shit? All that they have ever done is block any real progress for the American public and that won't change, even under a Democratic President, House, or Senate. The GOP is bound and determined to get their way, at yours and my expense.

  Mitch McConnell ( R scumbag-KY ) sent a letter to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid outlining the GOP Senates bullshit.

   The Hill

In letter to Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), McConnell urged Reid to adopt a more conciliatory tone and warned him that Republicans will unite against Democrats if he does not. The letter was signed by all 40 GOP senators and two Republican incumbents who are awaiting the results of elections in Georgia and Minnesota.

“As a caucus, Republicans will insist on our basic right to participate in the legislative process,” McConnell wrote to Reid. “The Republican Conference intends to protect the Senate’s history of full and open consideration of major legislation, which includes a fair amendment process and the opportunity for debate.”

  Guess that they do not wish to be treated in the same way that they have done to the Democrats since Bush arrived.  But wait! There's more! This next line is funny and shows just how stupid/ignorant that Republicans are.

The minority leader also held an unusually long news conference Friday to reiterate points made in his letter. He said Republicans are not sorry to see President Bush leave office, given his unpopularity, and praised Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) for running a “fabulous” campaign “under very, very difficult circumstances.”

  and then...

McConnell on Friday said he was not disheartened by the widespread GOP losses on Nov. 4 because the party has a strong stock of governors and up-and-coming Senate leaders.

“We are beginning a slow and deliberative process of finding our way back,” he said. “Both parties have done this periodically. My reaction to the election was not one of despair, but one of understanding that we have to retool and come back.”

  That's GOP speak for finding another way to con the American public into putting them back into the White House.
