With each passing day, the Democrats are proving over and over again that they are simply petulant children - nothing but infantile behavior. Rolling Eyes

Oh well ... if they do not want to be rational adults, then they will be dismissed as the tantrum-throwing babies that they have proven themselves to be.

The Republican-led committee approved Steve Mnuchin as Treasury secretary and Tom Price as Health and Human Services secretary once it disposed of the requirement that at least one Democrat be present for the vote.


Hyup - positive fallout, as predicted on Pope, from the ban on terrorist travel. The Dem's of the committees for the two, boycotted yesterday. The Finance Committee Chair, Orrin Hatch *R-Utah*, said - to hell with playing nice - been there, done that - change the rule. So, no longer does any Dem have to be present for a vote to be taken on a nominee.

Doncha just love it when the dimbulbs shoot themselves in the foot ?

I do.

Oh, Hatch's more diplomatic, non-monkey manner of phrasing:

Hatch said. “And, in my time as both Ranking Member and Chairman of this committee, I have bent over backwards to preserve its unique status as one of the few places where Republicans and Democrats not only work together, but achieve results. That all changed yesterday.”
