Washington Post: Estate Tax, Minimum Wage Bill Blocked

It is my sincere hope that this maneuver by the GOP in the Senate does not pay off. I do not think most people will be so easily duped as to believe it when the Republicans try to blame stalling of the minimum wage on Democrats. Watch carefully how it plays out, because though the GOP is not capable of governing, they are certainly quite adept at their chosen art of political misdirection.
