Help answer a Foxbot and CA Repub Assemblyman that are crapping on my FB posts today.

I'm home under-the-weather and was sharing some graphics on FB that I thought were appropriate. I posted a pic with text that said about Senate Dems only having a filibuster-proof majority for 24 working days and that the simply majority after that wasn't able to override the 241 repub filibusters used to stall proposed legislation.
Here's what I got back.
-----
Assemblyman - How many legislative actions have been stopped by Democrats?

Foxbot - Better yet....how many legislative actions were NEVER brought to the floor even for debate, much less a vote by Harry Reid and the democratically controlled Senate. If anyone is more incompetent than the Obama administration it has to be Harry Reid.

Assemblyman - How about Reid's total disrespect of the US Senate by going out on the floor to say Romney was not paying taxes, with no proof whatsoever, and then saying "prove me wrong". Not an American is Harry Reid.

The total disrespect. Look up Cheney Fuck You.

Just type that back. I know I know - tit for tat.

But that's the mentality you are dealing with. 3 year old children throwing tantrums because they aren't getting their way.

I wish I could tell you. You should say Reid had every right to speak on the floor. How many outrages things republicans call president Obama on the floor. Why are you so offended what Reid said. Prove he is wrong.

It is very likely that he got caught in the IRS sweep of Swiss bank accounts dodging taxes and that's why he cannot under any circumstances reveal his returns. Any other comments about Harry Reid are just evading the truth--Romney cannot prove Harry wrong because it would sink him in a second.

Did Romney pay any INCOME tax? Was Reid wrong?

What is Romney hiding, the coward.
