Senate Republicans Prove Again There Is No Change Since The Party Base Put Them In The Majority

BREAKING: Loretta Lynch confirmed as US attorney general, in 56-43 Senate vote

Here are the names of the 10 RINO's who voted to confirm Loretta Lynch as Attorney general. So, how is this different than if Harry Reid was still Majority Leader?  I guess Mitch McConnell is enjoying the bigger office as he plans to do the same things Harry Reid would. McConnell even voted to confirm Lynch.

Sens. Kelly Ayotte (N.H.), Thad Cochran (Miss.), Susan Collins (Maine), Jeff Flake (Ariz.), Lindsey Graham (S.C.), Orrin Hatch (Utah), Ron Johnson (Wis.), Mark Kirk (Ill.), Rob Portman (R-Ohio) and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky) joined Senate Democrats in approving her nomination.
For his next betrayal, Mitch is planning on continuing funding Obamacare subsidies if SCOTUS strikes them down. 
The legislation, offered by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), one of the most politically vulnerable Senate incumbents in 2016, would maintain the federal HealthCare.gov subsidies at stake in King v. Burwell through the end of August 2017.
The bill was unveiled this week with 29 other cosponsors, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and his four top deputies, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), John Thune (R-SD), John Barrasso (R-WY) and Roy Blunt (R-MO). Another cosponsor is Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS), the chairman of the conference’s electoral arm…
Don't give any of these traitors, the Republican Party or any of their organizations or PAC's any money between now and 2017. If you think you know a candidate who isn't in a Washington insider or in the pocket of the Chamber of Commerce, fund them. Good luck.

Attorney General Eric Holder withheld information at his Senate confirmation hearing. Two of the briefs withheld related to terrorist collaborator Jose Padilla. Holder was spearheading the effort to appeal Padilla's designation as an 'enemy combatant.' Hmm..I wonder why Holder didn't think that was important?
Reuters: Attorney General Eric Holder failed to tell the Senate about seven legal briefs he signed when lawmakers considered his nomination to his current job, according to a letter released on Friday.

13 State Attorney Generals Threaten Legal Action Unless Nelson's Bribe is Removed


Thirteen state attorneys general are threatening legal action unless Nelson's bribe is removed from the democrats health reform bill. They claim the "Cornhusker Kickback" isn't constitutional.

The Washington Post reported:

"We believe this provision is constitutionally flawed," South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster and the 12 other attorneys general wrote in the letter to be sent Wednesday night to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

"As chief legal officers of our states we are contemplating a legal challenge to this provision and we ask you to take action to render this challenge unnecessary by striking that provision," they wrote.
