it was always a longshot because the republicans control only all three branches of government ( laughterpected to do everything. the final blow was delivered last night, when utah senator and man failing to get anyone to raise the roof, mike lee, and kansas senator and grey alien who found a can of bronzer, jerry moran, released statements opposing the bill at the exact same time. it was the rare simultaneous no-gasm. ( laughter ) it is hard to overstate the level of failure here. the g.o.p. crushed their car at 90 miles an hour into a cliff with a grin on their face. ( laughter ) it's like if batman vs. superman took a pontiac aztek to blockbuster video to rent "the lone ranger" and watch it on laser disc. that's how badly they failed.
