If you think that you can get 2/3, be my guest. The question of whether what you charge is 'disorderly behavior' is questionable, however.
Of course the GOP could never get the votes. If you read the first post it says the GOP will have to take over the senate so he will no longer have any power.
I find the idea of removing a Senator from offices for failing to pass a budget, preposterous. As long as there are continuing resolutions passed to fund the government, a budget is not required constitutionally. So, to remove someone from office that is not required nor an offense would be unprecedented.
The purpose of a CR is to temporarily keep the gov't operating while negotiations take place. It has been 3 years with no negotiations because of Reid. He should be impeached.
Nonsense. The House continues to send budget appropriations bills to the senate where they are not acted on. CRs are supposed to be temporary extensions while differences are worked out. Harry doesn't even attempt to work anything out because he doesn't want his members to have to go on record voting against the sound proposals made by the house.
There is no excuse for this behavior. The democrats in the senate are the DO NOTHING CONGRESS that Obama keeps talking about.
Oh, what are these 'sound proposals?' Turning Medicare into a voucher system? Slashing nutritional programs? Raising the Social Security eligibility age? Lowering taxes, even more, on the wealthy?
The main point being, it's not impeachable behavior to not pass a budget and that's why no GOP leader is even proposing this silly idea.
they did? where is it. what are the numbers? democrats have not yet pass a budget for over three years! they say they don't need s budget, for what it just gets in the way of spending!!! Obama produced a budget guess who is not going to bring it to a vote? prince harry reid!

You do understand the Senate is REQUIRED to submit it's own budget proposal.
Are you saying the Senator Majority Leader CANNOT be impeached for NOT obeying the Congressional budget rules?
Anyone notice how the Left wing Liberal Nut cases are searching 'desperately' for an excuse to blame the Republicans and the House while 'conveniently' leaving out the fact that .. Those YEARS when the 'DIMS' controlled BOTH House and Senate .. They didn't bother with a budget either!?
Budget!?
"We don't Need No Stinkin Budget"!
(we're too busy 'buying' votes)
