    Lol. Byrd was 91 and “out of commission”. He wasn’t present and your timeline means nothing. I’ll say it again for the tenth time, Obama did not have a supermajority to override a Republican filibuster.

        Lololol. First, Franken’s timeline is as stated. Byrd was out. You somehow think that his being out of the hospital means he was present and voting? Are you an idiot?

          Are you an idiot?

          Is not an argument.

          I’m out. I was open to discussion until personal attacks.

            You were never open to a discussion because you refused to admit you were wrong about the supermajority. And you’ve spent a lot of time deflecting from that fact.
