Anybody know a Pat Moynihan wanna-be for the current fiscal fiasco? Too many wushies in Congress now. Alan Grayson(Fl) is coming back to the House of Rep.s in Jan. May have to wait for him.
Here’s a lie for your list:
“In July 2008, once he had secured the nomination, a bill came before the Senate that did exactly that – the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 – and Obama not only failed to filibuster as promised, but far worse, he voted against the filibuster brought by other Senators, and then voted in favor of enacting the bill itself. That blatant, unblinking violation of his own clear promise – actively supporting a bill he had sworn months earlier he would block from a vote – caused a serious rift even in the middle of an election year between Obama and his own supporters.” http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/dec/28/fisa-feinstein-obama-democrats-eavesdropping
That’s the Bush warrantless wiretapping act, which the Obama administration now wants reenacted with no amendments, please, trust us, we know what’s best for you, we’re in charge, and by the way, you shouldn’t be sending that sort of text message to your sister-in-law, it’s not nice.

That has always stuck in my throat. I can’t forgive it, sadly. Ever.
