Harry Reid: “I ask the courtesy of the Senator from Nevada to do a brief unanimous consent request.”

He has no regrets. He says he had to do it to save Obama’s presidency because of what the Republicans were doing to obstruct the president’s confirmation of judges and other legislative things.

But the purpose of politics that Harry Reid understood very well is to get stuff done.

The country is better off having a real democracy, not a fake democracy. Sixty percent is not a democracy.

Get rid of the filibuster, is nothing that as Brock Obama said, at John Lewis` funeral, it’s part of the leftovers from the days of the slave owners. You got to get rid of it. It’s very, very bad.
