Why are you attacking him so hard?
I prefer to blame the people who ACTUALLY DID THIS BULLSHIT!

Whoa -- Sen. Durbin went to up Leader Thune during the vote last night to tell him that on the shutdown vote and ACA promise that "8 of us are sticking our neck out that you're going to keep your word. I hope you will. He said 'I assure you I will,'" Durbin says just now
