He was Majority Leader for 8 years and a damn good one too.

Article headline is misleading. It should read:

Democrat Senate Literally Rapes America Before Ending the 113th Congress.

It’s telling that the confirmation of Judges–something that should be routine in the senate–is now a headline event when it happens.

Rachel Maddow wonders why they just don’t stay as long as possible to get more stuff done.

Its also telling where they will be seated. There were another 12 or so judges that Reid could have confirmed if they stayed and did more Senate business before ending the session according to R. Maddow last night, but in any case 3 new judges for Texas, all by itself, will be good for your State I would assume.

Not sure what you’re getting at. Appointments to DC, NC, VA and TX are all extremely important in terms of checking the attempted nonsense from conservatives in those states/districts, particularly NC lately, which has shown its true colors as a bastion of latent, racist, radicalized conservative shenanigans. If your complaint is that they should have tried to push more appointments targeting conservative districts, I think you’re off base and waxing towards complaining your gift horse isn’t a unicorn.

We really should team up to send Ted Cruz a thank-you note, or possibly a Christmas card. None of this would have been possible without his help.

Too bad Scalia and Thomas weren’t induced to resign. It would be a game-changer to have two fewer crazies on the court.

We could do a petition thanking him.

Or how about entering Herr Cruz into the running for governor of our fifty first state? Then we can dump
all of the malcontents, losers and other republicans in along with him. All Hail the new state of
Dumbfuckistan!

our standards are too low.

Do you know what the word “literally” means?"

How about trolling his Senate email account with thank yous?
