It is reasonable to say the GOP Senate Republicans finally know what oppression, rejection and standing as a minority sincerely means.
Not merely a bad joke, is it? Bigotry and bias sincerely excludes success, doesn't it?
I suggest the Democrats and those effected by 'compromise' laws revisit them and decide if a better law can be passed since there is now a 51 vote majority. I am thinking specifically about any Immigration Reform that was tainted by extremist pressure due to the GOP. If there is a better Senate bill that can now pass, then do it. When the House passes their bill there can be reconciliation even though the House is stating there will be no bills going to reconciliation.
That reality is also a political position the Democrats can exploit. The country wants compromise. The House having a Republican majority, then they should pass the bills the way they want, as if they wouldn't anyway, but, the Senate now has a Democratic majority. If the House won't pass a bill because they refuse to go to reconciliation it only proves more leverage for Democrats in the elections of 2014 and beyond.
I sincerely believe the House's experiment with the budget this year and the debt ceiling will produce another of the same come January 2014. They found out what they wanted to know by experimenting with the country this year and will seek to go forward next year with confidence and determination to make it happen. They'll seek political exploitation at the time as well based on those begun in late 2013.
The Democrats and possibly the President should not wait for it all to transpire before calling for help from the citizens of this country. There is a proven record with the GOP and to that end lies the right to warn the country and ask for action to prevent such an impasse again.
