35. Here again is where Obama should
have explained to his folks on why it takes not just a simple majority to pass a bill but now the dems have to have 60 votes to close down debate by using the cloture vote....

I have written the HRC campaign and asked them to let HRC explain the reasons why they cannot get a bill through...Once the american people are informed of this then it might make a difference to the far liberal crowd as to why no bills have been passed to bring the troops home and set a time line for said troops to leave.....

Educate the people and they will follow you.....That is what we need....
