You have got to be kidding me? This guy is a toddler! He is now holding our national security Hostage!
He says he will do evertyhing to make sure START is defeated if it is brought up on WED.
WTF?
Join me over the jump for discussion:
Has the GOP lost its fucking mind? They are so deviant, these days, that they vote against their own ideas, just because this PRESIDENT is for it!
Sadly, if Al qaeda gets a un secured Nuclear weapon because of this, it will be the American People who suffer, to the tune of about 300,000 people.
Good grief! Where is the sanity?
Mandatory drug testing fo the GOP! Are they working for PUTIN? I am aghast at the latest mind games and mind fucks that KYL is imploring!
But, I know, this is going to be spun as the President's fault, especially in the lazy ass MSM!
Here is the article:
From NBC's Ken Strickland
[Senate Republican leaders' top point man on the new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty said Tuesday that he "will work very hard" to ensure that the treaty is not ratified if it's brought to the Senate floor in the waning days of the lame duck session.
Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., argues that there is not enough time to thoroughly debate and possibly amend the START measure before the Senate adjourns for the year. Majority Leader Harry Reid plans to bring the treaty to the Senate floor following completion of the tax cuts bill this week.
"I let the Majority Leader know that's an issue for a lot of my colleagues," Kyl told reporters Tuesday. "And if he does bring it up, I will work very hard to achieve that result, namely that the treaty fails."
Treaty supporters touted Republican Sen. Olympia Snowe's announcement last week that she will support ratification. But Snowe's statement of support included a caveat that echoed Kyl's concerns: in a written release, she said she will vote to approve the measure as long as Reid offers it in "a framework that allows for sufficient debate and amendments."
At a news conference today, Reid said he had enough Republican support to secure the 67 votes needed to ratify the treaty, which is a top priority of the White House.
But Kyl was quick to disagree with that assessment.
"I will resist the temptation to go over the record of things where the Majority Leader had predicted something prematurely," Kyl said.
After standing at the podium silently for a few moments, he added with a grin, "If I'm really going to resist the temptation, I better resist the temptation.]"
I think we should rewrite our whole constitution, the Congress no longer works!
