Obama's going to react at 5:30.

Watch him blame Republicans and play the families card.

He'll forget to mention the number of Democrats who helped sink it too.

My only regret is that our amendment did not pass. It’s not the outcome I hoped for, but the Senate has spoken and it’s time to move on.

Thanks Rand! Pretty sure this would have passed had Rand not been working the Senate day and night to explain to them why it shouldn't pass.

Nice, this is awesome news...truly Rand's camp has replaced McCain's camp in terms of power right now!

 

[Shredmonster]

Just have to get it off my chest - fuck you McCain and all the other traitors in the joke you call the senate. Molon Labe you pricks.

He always does in these votes for procedural reasons I think.
