In the 60 years from 1840 until 1900, there were 16 filibusters.

In the first two years of Barack Obama's presidency there were 130.

Amazing...and to think this is a newspaper from his own frikkin state!

McConnell has made a mockery of the Senate. From his "My goal is to make this a one term presidency" to this, he has done nothing but obstruct.

His own stupidity here probably will result in filibuster reform. Good.
