Senate seems more interested in process and passing junk than responding to the people

McConnell Angers Conservatives By Blocking Defunding Planned Parenthood, Kate’s Law
So, how many voters supported Republicans in 2014 so they could pass a highway bill?  Was it ever even mentioned in the campaign of any one running for the Senate?   McConnell seems to think he got to be Speaker because people wanted him to pass stuff rather than work to get the Conservative agenda voted on.  And much of the rest of the Senate disgraced itself by refusing to consider popular measures that were pushed by conservatives who had offended the Speaker and the institution.  They put institutional prerogatives ahead of the people.

They may think they really showed Ted Cruz how the game is played, but what they really did was disclose their own disdain for the voters who put them in office.
