First Barney Frank, now Joe Biden whines about the Senate 60 vote requirement
Can someone please get these Democrats some tissues? First it was Barney Frank wanting to amend the rules of the Senate because “God Didn’t Create the Filibuster”. Now the dumbest Vice President in American History is crying the blues over the 60 vote filibuster requirement. According to Politico, Joe Biden, seeming to lay the groundwork for the case for moving health care legislation forward without 60 votes in the Senate, described the super-majority rule as a perversion of the Constitution.
“As long as I have served … I’ve never seen, as my uncle once said, the Constitution stood on its head as they’ve done. This is the first time every single solitary decisions has required 60 senators,” he said at a Florida fundraiser, according to the pool report. “No democracy has survived needing a super majority.”
