GOP Senators Invoke Christmas In Order To Pointlessly Obstruct The START Treaty

GOP Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl quickly took offense to the notion that legislators might be expected to work after December 25 and accused Reid of potentially "disrespecting one of the two holiest of holidays for Christians."
