Missy McConnell's Face Plant

Unintentional turtle impersonator and Senate Minority "leader" Mitch "Missy" McConnell thought he was clever when he tried to play games with the debt ceiling issue. Here's what happened instead:
"Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) wanted to prove on Thursday that Democrats don’t have the votes to weaken Congress’ authority on the debt limit. Instead they called his bluff, and he ended up filibustering his own bill."
The full story is here, and try to keep a straight face when contemplating Missy's pratfall.

This genius is the chief strategist of the Rethugs in the U.S. Senate. If there was only one turned up rake on a football field, Missy would step on it.
