The Washington Post:
Republicans … believe [no they don't] Harry Reid deserves the blame for their decision to "go nuclear" because he lowered the threshold for non-Supreme Court nominees in 2013.
And why did Harry Reid lower the threshold for non-Supreme Court nominees in 2013?
PolitiFact acknowledged "the accuracy of Reid's underlying point — that blockages under Obama have accounted for a disproportionate share of those undertaken in United States history," and "rate[d] the claim Mostly True."
I'd comment on Republicans' dishonesty, but they have me all dishonested out. These pricks can really wear one down.
