Guess How Many Bills the Senate Has Actually Voted on This Year | TheBlaze.com

Reid is doing more to protect Democrat Senators voting records than actually getting anything done. Not that this is a shock; we all know how evil and much of a liar Reid is. But since the mainstream news outlets don't inform the public as to what is going on, others have to do it.

I still can not fathom how any Democrat can support Harry Reid. The outright lies he tells and then this. Put aside your politics for a moment and stand up to this dirtbag.

Quote:
Last year’s statistics showed just how slow Congress, and in particular the Senate, has become at passing legislation. President Obama signed about 60 bills into law — a record low — and most of those bills originated in the House. Until the last few years, Congress had been able to send more than a 100 and sometimes more than 200 bills to the White House.


While Democrats are blaming the House for the slowdown, Republicans have charged that the problem lies with the Senate, where Reid is letting Democrats avoid tough votes on controversial issues in order to help their re-election prospects. That Democratic posture has led to several legislative dead ends in the Senate, and many wasted weeks in which no significant action is seen on any legislation.

Reid is a person like Pelosi that we can't take serious and clearly have to wonder if they have some kind of form of dementia, or other mental issue.

All they can remember is to blame someone else without any serious fact or to make any sense.

They should take him seriously if only for the fact that the media will practically promote things these two say as near fact. Look at all the attention Reids lies about Romney received about not paying taxes. And then, no follow up. No holding Reid accountable for lying.

The GOP needs to get out there more and explain just what the hell is going on. I realize theyll never get a real fair shake with the media, but they need to find a way to reach low informed people of what is really going on. So many people think this Congress just does nothing. Most are not aware of the tactics or Reid. And that really says it all about our "news" media today. They suck, they're biased, they're corrupt. No wonder this country is in the shape it's in. The media that is supposed to be our watchdog, are mostly complicit with one side in DC.

Reid has over 240 bills from the House sitting in his 'pending' basket.

Yes we can.

Reid is doing his job. Republicans are not slick. Don't bring bull**** to the table.

X needs to be passed. (budget, immigration, anything)

Republicans:

X + Repeal / Defund Obamacare

"Reid blocked it!"

Repeat X 240

I would love to see the House pass Comprehensive Immigration Reform, and, if they do, Reid should bring it up for a vote.
