    I’ve accepted this for so long as baseline knowledge that I’ve kind of forgotten some of the headlines. Can someone toss me a few bullet points of the bullshittery?

        The “fun” part of his acquittal vote is that he said he was guilty, but since he had lost the election already, casting a guilty vote would be the wrong thing for the senate to do.

        Just mealy mouthed all the way around.

      He proposed a bill and then when Obama backed it he voted against his own bill.

      On another occasion he proposed a bill, and after it passed and the fallout was bad he blamed Obama for not stopping him from passing the bill.

      Mostly he’s changed the rules to benefit his party at the expense of the American people and / or democracy.
