my guess? Schumer will shut down senate until there is an independent prosecutor

no votes on anything.

hm...  who has a majority in the Senate? Who took off the restraints on a simple majority vote for almost every law?

9. How can Schumer and the Dems shut down anything?

There aren't enough Dems to do anything, is there? I'm asking...

29. How would he do that?

What's the mechanism/rules etc? We certainly need some BOLD action now. A tipping point has been reached.

Hmmm.  Another example blatantly displaying the crass ignorance of the primitives when it comes to legislative history and practices.

Despite that they're two houses of the same body, "cooperation" between them is less often than not. 

A congressman heeding the suggestion of a senator is a rare thing.

When I read the thread title, my thoughts were, "Yes! Please! Beclown the whole D Party!!!" So I'm deeply disappointed that it was only a DU-fool's speculation.

Now, if Chuckles does show himself to be that stoooo-pid, in the midst of my paroxysms of :rotf: and :lmao: I will give "scheming daemons" credit for prescience.

Or Chuck could just stand there with a broken voice and his queer looking half-glasses balanced on his nose as he cries phantom tears as he confirms to the nation that democrats depend on hypocrisy and short memories to further every cause.

Which is exactly what happened.

Plus, no mention of Lavrov's visit this morning.  I guess he forgot.

Trump has trumped Schmuck Choomer. Schmuck wanted Comey fired yesterday morning but by the evening he wanted him not fired.  Schmucky painted himself into a corner, a sign of super intelligence.

OAN, Hilliary's Depends were filled by last night's actions.

Is Schumer shut down the government, Ted Cruz and Mike Lee would be solidly cheering him on (perhaps surreptitiously, but definitely with a huge smile on their faces). I don't really think the DUmmies thought this one through.

3. He better. If he doesn't, we should tie up his phone lines till he does.
:lmao:

Schmuck doesn't accept communications from anyone.  No letters, no calls, no emails.  Phone is off the hook, letters go into the incinerator.  Not constituents, not anybody.

Often wonder if they realize that they work for their citizens.  Chucky doesn't quite get that.

They represent their party, and have done so for decades. I haven't had a Representative in Congress for about as long.

OH NOES!!!!!1111!!!eleventy

McConnell says no special prosecutor. Plus IIRC, the congress gave away their ability to assign a special prosecutor.

Personally, I would like for Trump to come out and say "We havew done a thorough investigation and found no wrong doing. There is not a smidgen of corruption here." Then play a clip of Preznint Shit Midas saying the exact same words.  The leftists would go psycho...well more psycho.

Chucky Schumer would stand a better chance of just calling the ghost busters.  At least he would be dealing with the fantasy world the DUmmies insist on living in.

I think I heard today that the responsibility falls  on Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. He wrote the memo detailing the reasons for Comey to be fired.
