Spicer: Pence Tie-Breaker Vote on DeVos Nomination ‘Glaring Reminder’ of Senate Dems’ ‘Unprecedented Obstruction’

(CNSNews.com) - White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said Tuesday the fact that Vice President Mike Pence had to cast the tie-breaking vote in favor of Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is a reminder of the Senate Democrats’ “unprecedented obstruction.”

“The fact that we had to get to the point where the vice president had to be pulled in to overcome the Democrats’ historic and partisan logjam of the president’s qualified nominee is another glaring reminder of the unprecedented obstruction that Senate Democrats have engaged in throughout this process,” Spicer said.

Tie breaker wouldn't have been needed, except for the actions of Murkowski and Collins.

Bing bing bing - I think we have a winner.

90% of the attention will focus on other, less important factors and only 10% on the glaring issue - Murkowski and Collins.

If it were up to me I'd make those two pay a price they can't afford to pay.  Make them defend their vote, which is defending a rotten school system that has failed our youth in every way.  Make them defend the Union/Democratic money laundering cycle.  Make them defend their stance against the Freedom To Choose.  And dig deep to discover if/why they hate children because that is what it boils down to at the end of the day.

I would attack them early and attack them often.  Don't treat this like another bump in the road that will pass quietly.  I would force those two to defend their actions and explain to the American people why they refuse to protect the most vulnerable among us, those who cannot protect themselves.

@Night Hides Not When are those two clowns just going to come straight out and admit they are Dems/ liberals?

@Hondo69 GBR needs a "like" button.

The Democrats need to keep the Teacher's Union in charge. The dumbing down of the children is important for future elections.

I'm all for playing the strategic game.  Give them cover and keep them in for other votes.  I'd rather have them there than two Dem seats.

Unprecedented? Please. The GOP obstructed plenty of Obama stuff.

LOL - it's only "unprecedented" when the other side is doing it.
