The DREAM Act cloture vote failed today by 55-41, with 60 votes necessary but that would have been enough to pass in an up or down vote. Once again, the abuse of arcane Senate rules stifling democracy. That makes this more ifuriating is that five Democrats joined the slimy Republicans.
Here is a list of the bastards:
Max Baucus of Montana
Jon Tester of Montana
Mark Pryor of Arkansas
Now the Senate votes on cloture of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell repeal.
