MR TYRANNICAL HIMSELF SENATOR ASSHOLE AS CALLED BY THE OPPOSING SENATOR OF OK, SENATOR REID PRESSES MORE OF HIS OUT OF CONTROL MADE UP RULES FORGED AHEAD BY DEMOCRATS OF THE LIKES CHANGING RULES JUST LIKE THE DEMOCRAT POTUS BHO WITH EXECUTIVE ORDER DECREE LEFTIST STYLE–AS MR REID WANTS FILIBUSTER KILLED IN HIS WATCH

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on Sunday said he was not currently considering an elimination of the filibuster for legislation, but he warned that the country could not remain “paralyzed” by Republican obstruction.

Reid and the Senate Democratic majority enraged the GOP last year by moving to cut off the filibuster for most presidential appointees and judicial nominations. They left in place a 60-vote threshold for legislation. But in a rare Sunday television interview, Reid stopped short of categorically ruling out such a move in the future.

“We’re not there yet,” he said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” “No, I’m not thinking about that today.”

In the same interview, Reid denounced in his typically harsh rhetoric Republican opposition to a range of Democratic priorities, including an extension of long-term unemployment insurance, raising the minimum range and strengthening background checks for gun purchases.

On all of those issues, the Nevada Democrat said Republican members of Congress were out of step with Republicans nationwide, who, he said, supported the measures in public polls.
