I keep asking and getting no answer. In fact usually after I ask the thread dies.
How are the Republicans blocking any legislation? In the house it takes 218 votes to pass a bill and there are 265 Democrats, in the Senate it takes 51 votes to pass a bill and the Democrats have 59 Senators and 2 more that are Independent that vote democratic.
Can anyone explain this to me?
Why would anyone attempt to answer a question that has a lie in it?
There are 58 Democratic Senators, not 59.
Ya cause 58 as opposed to 59 is so much more important you DUMB ASS. The Democrats have 60 votes with the 2 Independents that vote Democratic. They Republicans can not even filibuster with out their help. Much less stop 51 Senators from voting YES. Last I checked 58 plus 2 is still HIGHER then 51.
