Lazy fuckers and filibusters |
|
When the Jimmy Stewart character stood, dead on his feet, speaking on a matter of principal, that was a filibuster. Peeing in his pants, going without rest or relief, that was a filibuster. Speaking nearly incoherently for reasons of near exhaustion, that was a filibuster.
Telling Reid you're going to do it while the two of you are standing at adjacent urinals as you start your lunch break, that's no filibuster. That's being a lazy fucker.

1. Yes but the lazyfuckers on OUR side who let the GOPers get away with this are almost as bad. |
|
They are letting the Mitch McConnells of the world turn them into a "do nothing" Congress at no cost to the GOP. We already know the GOP doesn't give a shit about governing, they just want to win elections and get back into power. So why would they stop doing this when it's win-win for them?
