Click on McConnell’s line

I tried to call Sen. Mitch McConnell to advise him to allow a vote on the new Supreme Court justice, as President Barack Obama recommended. (I use the president’s name with respect, not as an epithet as McConnell has done.) All I got on McConnell’s line was: “Our line is very busy now.” Click.

What a splendid way to keep up with his constituents.
