It was the Repubes who abused the filibuster like never before.
Reid isn't going to get ****, so he's wasting his time.

Again, you ignore Reid's responsibility for the Republicans using the ONLY tool they had left available to them.
380+ House Bills, most of them bipartisan, that Reid didn't allow to come to the floor.
He didn't allow Republican Senate bills to be submitted.
He didn't allow amendments to bills.
So the only thing that Republicans COULD do, is use the filibuster. But of course it's THEIR fault Reid did these things.

I understood your point. I was merely correcting you again.
Reid wants to remain relevant.
If he wants to do that, he has to give the Republicans something.

I thought you wanted compromise? Oh wait, I forgot that liberals define "compromise" as "Republicans giving liberals everything they want".
