But ACES is way below my line now (it's being gamed like health care and if not now, when. What next, will democrats claim they need 110 senators and 5,000 reps, including deceased ones, or they can't do a climate bill that isn't simply approving the status quo? @#$#$ anyone who says you need 70 senators to pass a goddamn bill.), so i support defazio either way. just a report from the trenches.Marion Delgadohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09493068399042656060noreply@blogger.com
