I thought this was rather amusing concerning the cloture vote (a vote to stop debate) in the Senate on raising the minimum wage :
White House press secretary Jay Carney accused Republican lawmakers of voting “contrary to the wishes of the American people.”
“The fact is there is a bill that was voted on today in the Senate that, with the exception of one Republican senator, was voted against by the entire Republican conference in the Senate but was supported Democrats, all of them,” Carney said. “And that majority in the United States Senate reflects the majority opinion in the United States of America.”
So, does that mean that when the US House, where the Republican majority “reflects the majority opinion of the United States of America“, voted to repeal Obamacare that US Senate Majority Leader (Democrat) Harry Reid is defying the American public by refusing to let the US Senate vote on that bill?
Jus’ sayin’ (or is that askin’?)
