Wait. I might be wrong, but did you really just quote an interview with someone related to the Band of Six as an unbiased source? Ye gods, that's like talking to Nixon about Watergate and expecting the slimy bastard to give you straight answers.
So, I was right that the Senate hasn't passed a budget in three years despite only needing 51 votes. You quote my saying it is a "well known fact." It is. I gave two references, one being CNN. Some have called my references biased, but then you cite the New York Times, which, incidently, does not dispute the "well known fact." I would love to have one of you assholes quote anyone, even MSNBC, denying this "well known fact."
You guys insult me, not realizing that I am right.
Now, one of the main reasons for these types of arguments is that we often have two sides saying contradictory things, and both can't be right. So you have to choose who to believe, or, at least, who you think is more likely to be lying least. Some of you are more likely to believe liberals and some more likely to believe conservatives. But the bottom line in this case is I have presented a "well know fact," and you choose not to believe me despite it being very easy to verify. Try this link and then, please, admit that you were wrong and I am right.
