Harry Reid: Filibuster Rule Has 'Been Abused,' Needs Changing

Saturday, May 12, 2012

Because it might actually work to get Democratic voters' legislative agenda made into the law of the land and do good for the People, but at less profit to corporations. And that's not what Obama and Company are there for. They are there to do the work of the transnational corporations, and preventing that are the liberals, which Obama has excluded from his administration and silenced throughout government.
