Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I'm pretty sure that the ACA passed before Scott Brown took office, which as I remeber it was the end of his Super Majority. But even if I'm wrong, then why don't they end the filibuster? If the Republicans are determined to be the obstructionist party, why aren't the willing to limit their ability to obstruct? They've been willing to do it to get nominations through, so why won't they do it to pass legislation?
