Harry Reid and "the 350 Bills"

yeah, except, I really don't give a shit if any bill ever gets passed. So democrats think calling congress "Do Nothing" is an insult. I consider it a compliment. But no matter how stupid democrats are, republicans are always stupider. Speaking of stupid, I'd hate to see just how stupid all those 350 bills sitting on Harry Reid's desk really are.
 
You have to give the media and liberals credit. Even though they sneer at the idea that the media is biased, they feel obligated to come up with an outfit like politiFact that will supposedly vet claims. One wonders why their own reporters couldn't do it, seeing as how they're so unbiased and all. Then they staff it with liberal ex-journalists and what do you know? They have trouble finding fault with anything that obama says. Either it's factually correct, end of story , or there are some extenuating circumstances that make it too hard to say for sure. With republicans, even if the claim is factually true, as with the 350 bills, there always seems to be some sort of asterisk or they take some liberal's contrary opinion as fact and then, sorry but it's half false or totally false. Zero credibility.

You notice that DB never contradicted a single thing in my post. He just made his typical drive-by snarky response.

If you believe that everybody is lying to you, then you will respond as you did. And do. And will. Since you believe that it was all a lie, what's the point in contradicting you?

So basically, it is completely true but it is awkward for democrats, so their reliable ally PolitFact, ie the Washington Post, comes up with a lot of doubletalk and says it is half true.

The House passed the bills and they never got a Senate vote. Who controls that ultimately? Reid. Notice that they said the Senate Committee chairs "could" hold up a bill. Did they cite even one that Reid is demanding action on and some rogue Chairman is blocking? Uh..no, because there aren't any. Or the threat of filibuster? any examples? No again, because there aren't any. Why would they need a filibuster? Reid is their filibuster. After all, they are the majority and vote in lock step on everything.

Then they say well, some of the bills are partisan and not designed to be bipartisan. So what? Was obamacare bipartisan? Have a vote and let the voters decide. Or send PolitLie out to obfuscate the issue.

Spot on. But you've got to realize, it's also being posted by a raging liberal, so you're undoubtedly going to only hear the one side of the story DBGarland wants to tell.

340 of them probably have something to do with the ultimate aim of repealing the ACA. :D

It's not a question of belief or opinion. It's a factual question. There were 350 or so bills passed by the House and sent to the senate where Harry reid prevents them from being voted on. That was the claim, and it was rated half true even though it is clealry 100% factual.

This is not the first time PolitiFact has done this. In fact, it's pretty much the norm.
