It sure is a good thing that the Senate doesn't have anything else to do so it can waste the last dwindling hours of the fiscal year holding go-nowhere votes on doomed legislation. When Sen. Cruz shuts down the Senate with his jihad against Planned Parenthood and costs the country another several billion dollars, we can all celebrate Mitch McConnell's complete inability to count to 40.
