Today was about gun control and the power of the presidency and a lot of BS about how Obama is the knight in shining armor held down by the evil opposing army in the Senate. Pretending that any mention of the bully pulpit or real legislative history is having liberal fantasies like on the West Wing. Same crap I have debunked forever. I am going to be a thorn in Steve Kornacki’s side if this keeps up. Also there was marriage equality and Jason Collins coming out in the NBA.
Now #Uppers.
Gun control had nothing to do with 1994 election. It was NAFTA and Hillary Clinton’s health plan failing+election trend. #Uppers

It=Filibuster. None of these election prospects matter.Stop talking about it+start talking about resurrecting filibuster reform 2014 #Uppers

This was my point of the day.
No gun control bill is ever going to get 60 votes. We don’t have a functioning legislature or Representative Democracy=ISSUE! #Uppers

#uppers @therealpriceman are the Dems getting what they deserve when they passed on filibuster reform? @upwithsteve

@gdgriffin @therealpriceman @upwithsteve What they deserve perhaps, but not what the country deserves.

#uppers @truthdogg @therealpriceman @upwithsteve thing is, the Dems have been let off the hook on this,they don’t want to do anything either

We had 54 votes for the background check bill and it didn’t pass. 46 Senators decided. Imagine assault rifle ban?Filibuster reform #Uppers

@gdgriffin @truthdogg @upwithsteve This is true. Batshit (R)s play to their base. It’s up to (D)s to do what Bill Frist threatened. #Uppers

How about the lessons of FDR? “I welcome their hatred.” Using the crisis of the Great Depression. #Uppers

The President is helpless, but he can lock you up indefinitely and kill you with a drone if you are on his list. This is BS. #Uppers

@therealpriceman It’s easy for people in power to appear helpless. Those who are really helpless, They’re never heard from.

Jamelle Bouie is wrong. Half of the party were Dixiecrats that turned Republican and left party. It was not easy 4 CRA of 1964. #Uppers

#uppers @therealpriceman for example he signed off on FAA waiver to sequester

Harry Reid refused repeatedly to threaten chairmanships. He let Lieberman keep. Obama supported that. He filibustered public option. #Uppers

granted it’s tough to stand tough @sharonj44257163 @therealpriceman but Clinton dared R’s to shutdown Gov & stood strong

Our sports culture is getting less homophobic. That is a good thing. #Uppers
— priceman (@therealpriceman) May 4, 2013
@gdgriffin @sharonj44257163 Yep, despite my many dislikes of his presidency there is that. He also stopped debt ceiling threats too. #Uppers

@lighthouses7 Yep, so it’s not really whatfilibuster reform “is.” It was a con and yet we still sit and talk about elections on #Uppers.

@therealpriceman we’re just as deaf, dumb, blind as GOP is if we don’t #uppers
