Liberal Congress condemning the "Nuclear Option" back in 2005 when President Bush tried to use it. The very same Nuclear Option that Obama and the liberal Congress are trying to use right now to pass health care! Only this time, they call it "Reconciliation"! I guess changing the name of something makes their conscience feel so much better. Or maybe its to trick us common folk! We are just a bunch of stupid religious gun toting farmers that are not smart enough to notice the difference I recon!
Here are some of the remarks made by members of Congress back in 2005. All of which have miraculously changed there position in favor of the Nuclear Option today.
Obama: "Bush hasn't gotten his way, so he is going to change the rules to get his way" "You have majoritarian absolute power in both houses, and that's not what the founders intended."
Hilary Clinton: "Bush just changes the rules, "Do it the way I want it done""
"The senate is being asked to turn itself inside out for the immediate gratification of the present President."
Chuck Shumer: Calls this a constitutional crisis. "The checks and balances which have been at the core of this republic are about to be evaporated by the nuclear option. The checks and balances which say that if you get 51% of the vote you don't get your way 100% of the time. It is amazing, it is almost a temper tantrum!"
"They want their way every single time, and they will change the rules, break the rules, mis-read the constitution so that they will get there way.
Harry Reid: "In these cases a filibuster serves as a check on power and preserves our limited government. But no, no we wont follow the rules, because of the arrogance of this republican administration"
Senator Feinstein: "The nuclear option, if successful will turn the senate into a body that could have its rules broken at any time by a majority of senators unhappy with any position taken by the minority."
Senator Biden: "This nuclear option is ultimately an example of the arrogance of power. It is a fundamental power grab." "And I pray to God that when the Democrats take back the power, that we dont make the kind of naked power grab you are doing."
This is what all the republicans in Congress are saying right now! But since the liberal are in control of the media, no one sees or hears any of it!
