The Senate historical Office has the count at over 100, no where near 400.


Okay, okay, okay, whatever the number of filibusters President Obama has received, whether it was 100 or 400, he has received 46% of all of the filibusters in the last 200 years. That is because he is a black man and racist Mitch McConnell said he was going to make him a one-term president after he was elected. That didn't work out for them so they are just going to do whatever they can to undermine his presidency.

Of Course McConnell Has Blocked the Senate 400 Times

How Many Times Have Republicans Filibustered Obama?
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_times_have_republicans_filibustered_Obama

Of course, the Republicans are throwing their "hissy fits" like little cry babies saying "we are going to get even". They have had their fun since President Obama took office and now they have had their favorite toy taken away.

What I found very amusing about your response was you were more concerned about the number of incorrect filibusters and nothing about the number of babies dying from poverty in GOP controlled states.

In Mississippi they will put a woman in jail for having a miscarriage or giving birth to a stillborn quicker than they would put a rapist or murderer in jail. And you probably think there is no "war on women".

Democrats are running scared, this is just another nail in the coffin of the democratic party.


Nope, the Dems are not running scared, we get even. No president in our history has ever received over 400 filibusters. All the Republicans want to do is "pack the courts" with Conservatives to take away women's rights, consumers rights, workers rights, and to drive this nation into more poverty.

Those little "spoiled GOP babies" got their favorite toy taken away from them today, their filibusters hahahahaha! Shame, shame, shame on them for blocking the first black president appointees. This blocking of the nominees was done out of spite and for sabotage against the first black president and to rile up their racist supporters.

Yep, I am proud to be liberal scum, and I am not afraid to hurt the little "Conservative cry babies" feelings. Read on if you dare!

Harry Reid Uses The Nuclear Option And Takes The Filibuster Away From the GOP
http://proudtobeafilthyliberalscum.com/2013/11/21/harry-reid-filibuster/ (11.20.13)

What happens when the GOP governors take away birth control from women who go to Planned Parenthood? More poverty, aren't you proud of the Conservative governors? Women and men use Planned Parenthood because they do not have the money to go to their own doctor's. Yet, they are the only ones these ignorant governors are taking birth control away from. Why? My guess is they love poverty, it gives them more to complain about.

"Merck for Mothers" initially focused on countries like India, Uganda, and Zambia in developing nations where women often died from complications related to pregnancy and childbirth because they lacked access to modern medical care. Merck & Co., one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world launched "Merck for Mothers" in 2011, and they are now coming to America.

Seriously, this nation has never know the poverty that we have had since the Republicans took over all of the states that President Obama won in 2008 and 2012.

They have not passed any jobs bills, they tax the poor, will not raise the minimum wage, will not give their constitutents healthcare and reduced the amount of income that is needed to receive government subsidies. America is truly becoming the richest Third World country.

I've mentioned this before but, if you are overdrawn in your bank account, are you going to go out and by a multithousand dollar new car? America's national debt was already bad off- in the Red. Then Obama puts his ACA on it and several trillion dollars later we are so far in the Red on our National Deficit theres no bringing it back for many many decades. Decades of high taxation, yours and my wages, plus many other high taxes to bring it down. The National Deficit and ACA will be healed by the tax payer. You'll yet feel the crunch.
Don't you think that there should have been a better planned out time for America's health care coverage?? I don't care what any "individual" congress person does, it can't match the lousy and unresponsibile management of America's money.

If you think the last line ruined the whole thing, let me ruin it from the start. The House Republicans are fighting for more poverty and more ignorance by taxing the poor and cutting education. Since President Bush taxed the poor the House Republicans wanted the President to continue taxing the poor for a bargain they made with him in 2011. The poor have been paying the taxes for this country from 2001 through 2012. If you are complaining about high taxes destroying your life, you must be one of the 49 million people living in poverty in America.

The NC GOPer's goal is to take the tax burden off of the wealthy and profitable businesses and onto the backs of the low-income and middle class.

North Carolina GOP Wants To Tax The Poor Even More
http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2013/05/30/2078001/north-carolina-gop-seeks-even-more-regressive-state-tax-burden/ (05.30.13)

On January 21, 2010, SCOTUS ruled "Citizens United" constitutional in favor of corporations, not people. The Constitution says "We the people", not "We the corporations". And a Conservative court ruled against the people and for the big corporations; and that will destroy this country.

Thom Hartmann has written a book titled "The Crash of 2016: The Plot To Destroy America and What We Can Do
About It". He says that if the House Republican's do not stop their obstruction of President Obama's plans for economy growth it will cause a "2016 Crash" that will make the "1929 Crash" look like childs play.

High taxes are not enjoyable to pay, but you can't live in your home for free, so why do you expect to live in a nation for free? And now we have other nations are looking at us saying WTF America. The Nordic countries, like Sweden and Denmark use their taxes to educate their future citizens, they have lower poverty, fewer prisoners and higher wages. We pay more for our prisoners than for education. Now who are the intelligent countries, America or the Nordic countries?

High taxes have never destroyed a nation; high taxes on the low-income and poor will. RomneyCare was the blueprint for ObamaCare and it has not destroyed MA. RCare was originally a Conservative idea from The Heritage Foundation and now that it is in a Democrat's hands the right thinks it will destroy the country.

My fellow Americans, the list of work is long and the work will be hard. But, Americans have always come together to solve its problems and challenges.

The difference between Republican's and Democrat's is that the Republican's tax the poor and claim they are the party of "no taxes". The Democrat's tax the rich and then they are called "socialist". Some of the poorest states in American are runned by GOP governors and the "grand ole party" is turning this country into a "Third World". It is beyond my comprehension that a group of people who went to college believe $10 thousand is more than $1 million.

The poorest state is MS, where Phil Bryant is the governor and the poverty level is 24.2%. AL leads the nation in diabetes, 2nd in obesity and the 3rd in hypertension. Now, this is one of the many states that are denying their constitutents healthcare because it has the "signature of approval" from the "black man" in the oval office and they would rather have them suffer than have any health care at all.

In TN 25% of the children live in poverty and 33% of Tennessean's rely on food stamps. If it wasn't for MS and NM LA would have the highest level of poverty. Evidently that is really something for the GOP to be proud of, if not, they would not tax the poor.

In SC, where Nikki Haley is governor 1 out of 5 South Carolinians live in poverty, so kudos to that governor. And in OK 17.2% have incomes below the poverty level and the average income is $44,312.

Communist? No one is more communist than the party on the right since the doctor's in Nazi Germany camps theorized that raped victims do not get pregnant. Let me see, today's Nazi doctor's would be Todd Akin, Richard Mourdock, Trent Franks, and Stephen Friend. None of those have medical degrees and yet they have the moxie to claim that women do not get pregnant when raped and therefore they will be forced to carry a rapist baby to term without any concern about the women's mental health. That is one reason why the party on the right are called "misogynist", they literally have no respect for a woman and then they claim to love them.

I unfortunatlely have a Republican cousin who believes women should have babies whether they can afford them or not, and I told him "that is exactly what your GOP governors have in mind".

The really sad thing here is that poor families are losing their right to control the size of their family and the poverty in the richest country in the world will destroy this nation.

For America to survive, the Republican party must die.

I'm not preaching to you from any balcony. What they did was reprehensible. However if you think that banning guns is the answer that will not help. Do you think criminals follow the law? They don't buy guns from gun shops. They buy them on the streets. Gun violence will only end when we take steps to help those with mental health issues. They fall under the radar and end up doing terrible things. That needs to be addressed first. Preventing them from getting guns will help too but, only after their mental issues are dealt with first. As for abortions you are entitled to your opinion. However just because I can't have a baby doesn't mean I can't have an opinion.

Restricting gun ownership is the way to go, but the NRA opposes any restrictions. You should know that, and why is it that the anti-choicers are the one's who own most of the guns? The Democrats who own guns are the one's who think background checks should be expanded and a limit put on the number of bullets in a magazine. That didn't go over very well in Colorado when the Republicans ousted two Dems who wanted to protect more people from being killed. And the Republicans jumped in and said we can't have people's lives being saved, we want more to die, we want more guns.

Banning guns in Australia was the way for them to go, even the actor Hugh Jackman is sorry that the US has a 2nd Amendment in the Constitution. Australia has not had a mass murder from guns since 1996 and you will never say that about America. People just do not die when shot, many are left paralyzed and some lose their eyesight, their arms and legs.

Seriously, in Texas they can now carry long guns in the open; it is called "open carry Texas" or OCT. Now, that is just how much those "bloodthirsty rightwing Christians" care about the lives of children or their parents. When 4 moms from "Moms Demand Action" were having a meeting in a restaurant they gathered outside and terrorized them until they called the police.

Why did the right become so outraged when Wendy Davis said she was pro-life? Your version of pro-life ends at birth, our version begins at birth. Time in the womb is about 9 months, outside can be a 100 plus years. Your version is just a way to control women, tell them what they can do or can't do with their own bodies.

Your pro-life opinion should be about your wife, girlfriend or any other women in your family and that is where it should end. Controlling other men's wives or girlfriends is up to them, not the GOP government, they are not paying for those childrens future. And since they just want to keep their constitutents from having ObamaCare because of their hatred from our first black president, the taxpayer will continue to pay for those unwanted births.

I really don't know what you are trying to say about the RICH Dems other than they voted against raising the minimum wage. Only 6 Dems joined the 227 Republicans in voting against raising the minimum from $7.25 to $10.10 in March 2013.

Those 6 Democrats are as un-American as the 227 Republicans. I have never seen a group of people fighting for more poverty, the uneducated, and against the first black president, who, BTW is trying to modernize this country.

Do you know that 80% of Texans only have a high school diploma? That is what happens to a state after it has been under Republican rule for almost 20 years. Now is that something to celebrate? I find it rather appalling myself.

Yes, there are millionaires and billionaires in both parties, the difference is the Democrats want to raise the minimum wage, the Republicans do not.

Yeah I will never give birth, however that doesn't mean I don't have a right to an opinion. Typical liberal elite. I can't have an opinion because I can't have a baby! You think your opinion is the only one that counts. Maybe I can't have a baby, but you can't either without male sperm. So because I can't carry a baby I am not allowed to have an opinion as to when life begins. Because I can't have a baby only women are allowed to decide if they want the baby or not. The man has no rights. Well that's fine. I'll tell you though there is one person's rights not being considered. That of the unborn child. Oh I forgot to you even though science has proven that life begins at conception, your opinion is the only one that counts. This isn't a life. Congratulations on being the only person that has an opinion that counts.

Yes, the rich are getting richer and the poor getting poorer, that is not Obama's fault. It is the Republicans who are refusing to raise the minimum wage, not President Obama.

When Gov. Christie refused to raise the minimum wage from $7.25, in New Jersey, the people took it to the voters and raised it to $8.25. The voters in Seattle, WA raised they wages to $15.00 with the rich Koch brothers protesting.

It is unflippingbelievable that the rich billionaires are protesting against people getting a livable wage.

I personally like the freedom to choose so I will take a blue state anyday. Unfortunatly for me I moved to a blue state only to have the GOP take control. I have lost my freedom to vote, women have lost their freedom to choose, and the poor are paying taxes while the rich get richer.

So, you think the poor should be paying your taxes and not the rich? That leads to the high poverty levels in those red states. In Texas the poverty level is 18%, and 80% of Texans only have a high school diploma. NOW THAT IS SOMETHING TO GO OUT AND CELEBRATE, ISN'T IT?

Sorry, I don't have to read anything to know that women have freedom in a blue state, in red states they have no freedom and this is in the 21st Century. So, don't go pushing your Conservative propaganda down my throat.

I live in a blue state that was recently taken over by the anti-choice GOP and already the poverty level is 18%. We have lost our freedom to vote, our freedom to choose, so GO POVERTY GO, GO UNEDUCATED GO, GOANTICHOICEGO.

In blue states women have a right to choose if the have children or not, that is not true in red states. They just love controlling other men's wives and girlfriends. THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY, NOT THE 19TH.

So, if you do not mind the government controlling your wifes body or your girlfriends, then enjoy your time in a red state.

Personally, I want the government out of women's panties.
